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.
Weaning of hatchery-bred milkfish larvae from live food to artificial diets
(Elsevier, 1984)
Two-week old milkfish (Chanos chanos ) larvae (7.5 mm standard length, 2.3 mg wet body weight) previously fed only rotifers were weaned abruptly to six artificial diets (commercial feed TP, artificial plankton AS and BP, ...
Studies on the habitat and food of juvenile milkfish in the wild
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1981)
Juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos ) were collected from several different wild environments in Panay Island and neighboring islands. The fish were measured and the food ingested examined. Conditions of milkfish habitats ...
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 ...
An improved method for collecting naturally spawned milkfish eggs from floating cages
(Elsevier, 1988)
Natural spawnings of captive milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) held in floating cages were observed in 1980, 1981, 1983 and 1985. Frequency of spawnings increased from two in 1980 to 41 in 1985. Various collectors and ...
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 ...
Influence of nutrition on the hepatocytes of Chanos chanos (Chanidae: Teleostei)
(Elsevier, 1984)
The hepatocytes of milkfish (C. chanos) fry and fingerlings offered a variety of diets differ considerably as was shown by means of transmission electron microscopy. For fry it was shown that a 7 day starvation period ...
An economic analysis of the modular pond system of milkfish production in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1989)
In 1980, the annual yield of milkfish ponds in the Philippines was 800 kg/ha while the potential yield is estimated to be 2000 kg/ha. The modular pond system analyzed in this study can largely close the gap between actual ...
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 ...
