Tryptophan requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
The dietary requirement of tryptophan for juvenile Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) was studied. The juveniles (mean initial weight, 5.30 ± 0.06 g) were given semi-purified test diets containing fish ...
Shell marking by artificial feeding of the tropical abalone Haliotis asinina Linne juveniles for sea ranching and stock enhancement
(Blackwell Publishing, 2003)
A method of marking abalone (Haliotis asinina Linne) for sea ranching and stock enhancement purposes was developed. Three-month-old abalone juveniles (11.8-mm shell length, 0.28 g) were fed artificial diets for 1, 2, or 3 ...
Influence of various dietary synthetic carotenoids on bio-defence mechanisms in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2001)
This study examined the influence of different carotenoids on growth and some immune indices in rainbow trout. Six semipurified casein-based diets were formulated to contain one of three different carotenoids: astaxanthin, ...
Apparent digestibility of selected ingredients in diets for juvenile grouper, Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2004)
Apparent digestibility coefficients (ADCs) for dry matter (ADC<sub>dm</sub>) and crude protein (ADC<sub>cp</sub>) of selected feed ingredients were determined in vivo for grouper using passive faeces collection (Guelph ...
Economic evaluation of grow-out diets for Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) production
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 2000)
The economic feasibility of four grow-out diets for the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus was evaluated on a 1000 m<sup>2</sup>/crop basis. Hatchery-bred catfish juveniles with mean body weight (MBW) of 3.6 g and mean ...
Amino acid profiles in the midgut, ovary, developing eggs and zoea of the mud crab, Scylla serrata
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2004)
Culture of the mud crab, Scylla serrata, is beset by low and inconsistent survival of larvae in spite of the high fecundity of crab breeders. The nutrition of the embryo and pre-feeding zoea depends on what is stored in ...
Culture and economics of wild grouper (Epinephelus coioides) using three feed types in ponds
(Elsevier, 2001)
The performance of wild Epinephelus coioides juveniles was compared by feeding with live tilapia juveniles, fish by-catch, and formulated diet for 5 months in grow-out ponds. To minimize cannibalism, the groupers were ...
Fatty acid composition of five candidate aquaculture species in Central Philippines
(Elsevier, 2004)
Fatty acid composition was determined in five candidate aquaculture species, mangrove red snapper (Lutjanus argentimaculatus), two rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus and S. canaliculatus), coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus) ...
Evaluation of processed meat solubles as replacement for fish meal in diet for juvenile grouper Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2001)
Feeding experiments were conducted to determine the efficacy of low fish-meal-based diets for juvenile grouper Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton). A diet containing 44% protein was formulated using fish meal as the major ...
Evaluation of plant proteins as partial replacement for animal proteins in diets for Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2002)
The growth rate and survival of two white shrimps, Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis, fed diets in which fishmeal was partially replaced with plant protein sources were investigated in three trials. In trial 1 with P. ...
