Milkfish (Chanos chanos) fingerling production in freshwater ponds with the use of natural and artificial feeds
Milkfish fry were reared to fingerling size in freshwater ponds. For the first experiment, fish were fed the blue-green algae Oscillatoria inoculated and grown in the ponds, Oscillatoria supplemented with a fishmeal-based ...
Hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Steroid hormone profiles accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish are described. There were no significant differences in levels of serum estradiol 17-β (E<sub>2</sub>) and testosterone (T) between immature male ...
The effect of tank color and rotifer density on rotifer ingestion, growth and survival of milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1995)
The effect of tank color on rotifer ingestion, early growth and survival of milkfish larvae was assessed. The larvae were stocked at 30/L in 200-L fiberglass tanks coated black or unpainted (tan). Larvae were fed rotifers ...
Live transport of pond-reared milkfish Chanos chanos broodstock
(World Aquaculture Society, 2000)
Feed ration for different sizes of wild and hatchery-bred milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1999)
Intensified production of fish involves stocking at high densities and the use of artificial feeds. These practices result in eutrophication and environmental degradation mainly because of feed wastage and fish excreta. ...
Evaluation of different supplemental feeds for milkfish (Chanos chanos) reared in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1991)
The effects of supplemental feeding on milkfish growth, production, survival, water quality, and economic benefits in brackishwater ponds were evaluated by comparing a rice bran diet, containing 11.3% protein, and two ...
Observations on artificial fertilization of eggs and embryonic and larval development of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1978)
Hydrated eggs obtained from a female milkfish, Chanos chanos, were artificially fertilized with the milt collected from a male injected with acetone-dried pituitaries of salmon. The fertilized eggs (1.1–1.25 mm in diameter) ...
Broodstock management and egg production of milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal
(Blackwell Publishing, 1993)
The milkfish, Chanos chanos Forsskal, industry in the Philippines suffers from a limited supply of wild fry. The demand for milkfish fry has spurred research in artificial propagation to supplement the natural seed supply. ...
Growth and production of deformed and nondeformed hatchery-bred milkfish (Chanos chanos) in brackishwater ponds
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1999)
This study evaluated the growth and survival of morphologically deformed and nondeformed hatchery-bred milkfish in brackishwater ponds. It compared the size-frequency distribution of the nondeformed fish with the deformed ...
A preliminary study on the protein requirements of Chanos chanos (Forskal) fry in a controlled environment
(Elsevier, 1979)
Milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry with an average weight of 40 mg per fish were stocked in 60-l wooden-glass aquaria filled with 30 l of filtered sea water with a salinity of 32–34 p.p.t. and a temperature of 25–28°C. They were ...
