Requirements of juvenile marine shrimp, Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) for lysine and arginine
(Elsevier, 1998)
Feeding experiments were conducted using amino acid test diets to determine the dietary requirements of juvenile Penaeus monodon for lysine and arginine. Two sets of the test diets were prepared. The natural protein was ...
Preliminary results of feeding aquatic macrophytes to Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Elsevier, 1989)
Penaeus monodon juveniles (PL<sub>50</sub>) were fed live and decaying aquatic macrophytes and a commercial grow-out pellet (40% crude protein) in 80-l glass tanks over a 30-day period. Growth and survival were significantly ...
Methionine requirement of juvenile tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1996)
An 8-week feeding trial was conducted to determine the dietary requirement of postlarval Penaeus monodon for the sulfur-containing amino acid methionine. Shrimp postlarvae (mean weight 21 ± 0.3 mg) were reared in 40-1 ...
Low-cost feed for Penaeus monodon reared in tanks and under semi-intensive and intensive conditions in brackishwater ponds
(Elsevier, 1997)
Experimental diets for juvenile Penaeus monodon were formulated incorporating inexpensive indigenous raw materials. Local fish meal and cowpea meal were tested as replacements for imported protein sources and the diets did ...
A practical method of extracting mimosine from ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves and its effect on survival and growth of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1992)
Soaking fresh ipil-ipil, Leucaena leucocephala, leaves in tap water (1:1, v/v; or 50 g in 500 ml) for 30-48 hours with a water change after 24 hours extract atleast 90% of its mimosine, a toxic lysine derivative. This ...
Growth and survival of juvenile tiger shrimp fed diet where fish meal is partially replaced with papaya (Carica papaya L.) or camote (Ipomea batatas Lam.) leaf meal
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1995)
Fish meal is the major protein source in shrimp and fish diets but its continuous use would make it scarce and expensive. There are, however, potential substitutes like soybean or leaf meals. Papaya or camote leaf meals ...
Effect of dietary astaxanthin and vitamin A on the reproductive performance of Penaeus monodon broodstock
(Cambridge University Press, 1998)
The reproductive performance of pond tiger shrimp given astaxanthin (100 mg·kg<sup>−1</sup>) and/or vitamin A (20 000 IU·kg<sup>−1</sup>) for 61 d in tanks was assessed in a 2 × 2 factorial experiment in a completely ...
L-ascorbyl-2-phosphate Mg as source of vitamin C for juvenile Penaeus monodon
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
Phosphated ascorbic acid (MAP), a stable vitamin C derivative, was used in practical diets for Penaeus monodon (wet weight, 126-254 mg) as a source of vitamin C. In Experiment I, the levels were from 0 to 1,500 ppm MAP. ...
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. ...
Ingestion saturation and growth responses of Penaeus monodon larvae to food density
(Elsevier, 1989)
Different larval stages of Penaeus monodon were fed with increasing densities of Tetraselmis sp. to evaluate the relationship between food density, ingestion rates, development and growth of Penaeus monodon larvae. Ingestion ...
