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, ...
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 ...
Critical factors influencing survival and hatching of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport
(Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of loading density, length of transit time, temperature and salinity on milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport were examined. Rocking motion approximating conditions of transport of ...
Changes in the length and weight of milkfish, Chanos chanos, larvae preserved in formalin
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1980)
Shore-caught milkfish fry (late postlarvae) and artificially-bred, laboratory-reared larvae (0-to 20-day old) were preserved in 5% and 10% freshwater-and/or seawater-formalin solutions after measuring their initial weights ...
A histological study of the hypophysial-gonadal system during sexual maturation and spawning in the milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1985)
The pituitary gland of the milkfish, Chanos chanos, was studied at different stages of sexual maturation and spawning. Consecutive median sagittal sections were treated with a range of stains to demonstrate the different ...
The mechanics of mass occurrence and recruitment strategy of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) fry in the Philippines
(Kagoshima University Research Center for the South Pacific, 1983)
The daily and hourly catch of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) fry in the coast of Hamtic, Panay Island in the Philippines was recorded over a period of 16 weeks, and correlated with time, location, types of gear, and ...
Morphological aspects of the development of swimming and feeding functions in the milkfish Chanos chanos
(The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1987)
Development of swimming and feeding abilities based on morphological development of larval and early juvenileChanos chanos was investigated. In larvae smaller than about 6.5 mm SL, mechanical supports of fins and branchial ...
Limnological notes on the finfish production problem of Laguna de Bay.
(College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines, 1988)
Environmental problems have significantly affected fishery production and management in Laguna de Bay, the largest lake in the Philippines. Fishermen and fishpen operators are complaining about the slow growth of fish and ...
Meristic variations in milkfish Chanos chanos from Philippine waters
(Springer Verlag, 1988)
Variations in meristic characters occur within and between samples of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal) collected on June 1977 from five localities in Philippine waters. The unbranched anal and ventral fin rays are the ...
Food preference of wild milkfish juveniles in connection with habitat and food availability
(Taylor & Francis, 1989)
Through quantitative determination of the gut content of wild milk fish (Chanos chanos) juveniles, the study aimed to evaluate the food preference of the fish in relation to its availability in the pond so that necessary ...
