Preliminary results of feeding aquatic macrophytes to Penaeus monodon juveniles
Primavera, Jurgenne 
; (Elsevier, 1989)
; (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 ...

Effects of food ration on growth, condition factor, food conversion efficiency, and net yield of estuary grouper, Epinephelus salmoides Maxwell, cultured in floating net-cages
(Elsevier, 1982)
The effects of food ration on the growth and yield of the estuary grouper raised in floating net-cages were investigated. The optimum ration given on alternate days was 5% body weight (wet) which gave the best mean fish ...

Fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica in aquaria using phytoplankton as natural feed
(University of the Philippines at Los Baños, 1982)
Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of phytoplankton as natural feed in fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica . In the first experiment, growth and survival rates of fry given a sustained ...

The effect of stunting on growth, survival, and net production of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
The seasonal abundance of milkfish fry in the Philippines has led to the practice of buying a sufficient supply during the peak season to compensate for the shortage during slack periods. Fry that are not immediately grown ...

Effects of temperature on behavior, growth, development and survival in young milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of three temperature treatments on activity, feeding, growth, development and survival of young milkfish (Chanos chanos) were investigated. Low temperature (<22.6°C) and hypoxial condition (<1 ppm O2) decreased ...

Effect of thyroxine on growth and development in post-yolk-sac larvae of milkfish, Chanos chanos
(Elsevier, 1985)
Post-yolk-sac larvae of milkfish, Chanos chanos (commonly referred to as “fry”) were collected along the shore in the Philippines. Treatment of these long, slender and transparent larvae with L-thyroxine-sodium (Eltroxin, ...

Dietary crude protein requirement of Tilapia nilotica fry
(University of the Philippines at Los Baños, 1982)
Tilapia fry were stocked at three per liter in wooden tank compartments or glass aquaria filled with 50 or 35 l of fresh water in three separate feeding trials. The fry were fed isocaloric practical diets containing 20, ...

Effects of initial stocking size on the growth of Nile tilapia fingerlings in cages without supplemental feed in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(University of the Philippines, 1988)
Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings were stocked at three different initial size ranges of 1-3, 7-12 and 20-30 g in fixed net cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines. These were reared without supplemental feed for 120 days. ...

Larval rearing of bighead carp, Aristichthys nobilis Richardson, using different types of feed and their combinations
(Blackwell Publishing, 1988)
The effects of different types of feed, given singly or in combination, on the growth and survival of bighead carp, Arislichlhys nobilis Richardson, larvae reared for a period of 12 weeks were determined. Growth was highest ...

Feed preference of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) fry given different algal species as natural feed
(Elsevier, 1986)
Acclimated milkfish fry (mean wet weight, 6.0 mg) were fed with unialgal cultures of five species of freshwater algae: Oscillatoria quadripunctulata, Chroococcus dispersus, Navicula notha, Euglena elongata and Chlorella ...
