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 ...
Utilization of feed and rice straw compost for milkfish, Chanos chanos, production in brackishwater ponds
(Blackwell Publishing, 1991)
The study was undertaken to determine the effect of 0, 25, 50 and 75% replacement of organic matter in the feed with rice straw compost on milkfish (Chanos chanos) growth and production. Treatments have similar organic ...
Mercury levels in the sediment, water, and selected finfishes of Laguna Lake, the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1990)
Monthly samples of sediment, water and commercially important species of fish, primarily Oreochromis niloticus and Chanos chanos , plus a few other species, were collected from the West Bay area of Laguna Lake, The Philippines ...
Studies on the digestive lipases of milkfish, Chanos chanos
(Elsevier, 1990)
Milkfish grown on two natural foods were examined to determine the distribution pattern of the digestive lipases along the digestive tract and to identify the optimum condition for lipase activity. One food consisted of a ...
Lipid and fatty acid composition of brackishwater- and freshwater-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1991)
Lipid and fatty acid composition of the various sections of brackishwater- and freshwater-reared milkfish were determined by chromatographic methods. Lipids consisted mainly of the neutral type, which in turn was composed ...
Requirement for tryptophan by milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) juveniles
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean initial weight 7.7 g) were fed semipurified diets containing 0.9, 1.4, 2.1, 3.1, 4.1 and 6.1 g tryptophan/kg dry diet for 12 weeks. The mean crude protein content of the diets (containing ...
Biological evaluation of frozen zooplankton as food for milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry
(Verlag Paul Parey, 1991)
Milkfish fry with an average standard length and weight of 13.88 mm and 3.95 mg, respectively, were reared for 30 days using live and frozen Moina macrocopa and Brachionus plicatilis at feeding densities of 10–20 individuals ...
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 ...
Ecological considerations in milkfish farming in marine pens and cages in the Philippines
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 1998)
Milkfish farming in the Philippines has a long history and great importance, being widely regarded as the way to domestic food security. But the industry has faced new challenges in the past decade, with the advent of many ...
