Yolk resorption, onset of feeding and survival potential of larvae of three tropical marine fish species reared in the hatchery
(Springer Verlag, 1986)
This paper provides basic early life-history information on milkfish (Chanos chanos), seabass (Lates calcarifer) and rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) which may explain in part the observed differences in their survival ...
The length-weight relationship, food habits and condition factor of wild juvenile milkfish in Sri Lanka
(Elsevier, 1986)
Wild juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos) were obtained from Negombo lagoon in September 1984. Thirty-one specimens (92–186 mm FL) had a fork length-body weight relationship of log W = −5.6083 + 3.2598 log L. These fish were ...
Bacteria associated with infection at hormone-implantation sites among milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), adults
(Blackwell Publishing, 1986)
SEAFDEC Contribution No. 164. Paper presented at the Second International Warmwater Fish Conference at Laie, Hawaii, 5–8 February 1985.
Spontaneous maturation and spawning of milkfish in floating net cages
(Elsevier, 1986)
Milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) reared from wild-caught fry and from hatchery-bred fry matured at 3.5-5.5 years (2.3-4.9 kg). Maturation and spawning of the hatcherybred fish marks the first time the milkfish life-cycle ...
Histological observations on the rearing of milkfish, Chanos chanos, fry using different diets
(Blackwell Publishing, 1986)
Six different diets, commonly used in the Philippines for rearing milkfish, Chanos chanos, try, were tested by means of growth, survival and histology. These diets included:
a) live food (Artemia nauplii); b) two different ...
Early development of fin-supports and fin-rays in the milkfish Chanos chanos
(The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1986)
Development of fin-supports and fin-rays was observed in larval and juvenileChanos chanos, Chondrification of the caudal complex started at 4.70 mm SL. Ossification of the caudal elements started at 7.80 mm SL and was ...
Induced maturation and spawning of milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, by hormone implantation
(Elsevier, 1986)
The milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, does not reach gonadal maturity easily in captivity. In an attempt to induce maturation, exogenous hormones, LHRH-A and 17α-methyl-testosterone, were implanted into adult milkfish ...
Digestibility in milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal): Effects of protein source, fish size and salinity
(Elsevier, 1986)
The true digestibility of casein, gelatin, fish meal, defatted soybean meal and Leucaena leucocephala leaf meal was measured in 60- and 175-g milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) in fresh- and seawater. The diets contained ...
The milkfish seed resources survey in Sri Lanka: Status, problems and recommendations
(Ministry of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, Sri Lanka, 1986)
A summary is provided of information concerning the milkfish (Chanos chanos) seed resources of Sri Lanka, highlighting problems related to seed collection. Various recommendations are made to overcome these problems and ...
Effect of stocking density and duration on stunting milkfish fingerlings in ponds
(Taylor & Francis, 1986)
The paper discusses the effect of stocking density and holding periods in stunting milkfish fingerlings in brackishwater ponds using twelve units of 144m<sup>2</sup> earthen ponds. With 15, 20, and 25 fingerlings/m<sup>2</sup> ...
