Occurrence of milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal) eggs around Panay Island, Philippines
(The Faculty of Fisheries, Nagasaki University, 1980)
A total of 551 milkfish eggs was collected by horizontal tows with a fish larval net in the waters around Panay island during the period from April 1976 to June 1979. The maximum number obtained by a single tow was 33 eggs. ...
Influence of feeding rate and diet form on growth and survival of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fry
(Elsevier, 1987)
Young Nile tilapia (12 mg mean body weight and 11 mm total length) were stocked at a density of 5 fish/l in twelve 50-l aquaria filled with 30 l of tap water. They were fed pellet crumbles containing 35% crude protein at ...
Year-round spawning and seed production of the rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Elsevier, 1986)
A series of experiments on the spawning and larval rearing of Siganus guttatus was conducted during a 14-month period in 1984–1985. Spawning occurred every month throughout the year, without hormonal treatment, between the ...
Studies on the causative organism of Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus) fry mortalities I. Primary isolation and pathogenicity experiments.
(Taylor & Francis, 1987)
Oreochromis niloticus fry reared in 50 L aquaria at a density of 1,000 fry manifested mortalities of 15% daily. Afflicted two-week old fry exhibited darker pigmentation, emaciation lesions, and surface swimming. Parasites ...
Evaluation of the high rate algae pond system for softdrink waste treatment and for fish culture.
(Asean Journals Ltd., 1987)
The High Rate Algae Pond System (HRAP) as secondary treatment for Cola effluents showed potential for reducing both COD load (about 88%) and high pH level (down to pH 7.0 -8.0). The effluent quality improved and can be ...
Induced spawning of maturing milkfish (Chanos chanos) using human chorionic gonadotropin and mammalian and salmon gonadotropin releasing hormone analogues
(Elsevier, 1988)
The response of maturing female milkfish to D-Ala<sup>6</sup>-des Gly<sup>10</sup> mammalian GnRH ethylamide (mGnRH-A), D-Arg<sup>6</sup>-des Gly<sup>10</sup> salmon GnRH ethylamide (sGnRH-A) and human chorionic gonadotropin ...
Induced spawning of maturing milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) with gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues administered in various ways
(Elsevier, 1987)
The response of mature female captive milkfish to mammalian and salmon gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues (mGnRH-A and sGnRH-A) was investigated. Prior to spawning, six groups of three females received (1) 10–16 μg ...
Amino acid requirements for growth of Nile tilapia
(American Society for Nutrition, 1988)
A series of feeding experiments was conducted in aquaria to determine the quantitative requirements of the 10 essential amino acids for growth of young Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). The test diets contained casein ...
The effect of thyroxine on the larvae and fry of Sarotherodon niloticus L. (Tilapia nilotica)
(Elsevier, 1983)
Effects of thyroxine (T<sub>4</sub>) (0.1 ppm; 0.3 ppm; 0.5 ppm) on Sarotherodon niloticus L. yolk sac larvae were studied after 4 weeks of treatment from hatching. T<sub>4</sub> at 0.5 ppm accelerated yolk resorption but ...
Effect of artificial diets on growth and survival of milkfish fry in fresh water
(Elsevier, 1983)
Wild milkfish fry (mean weight = 15 mg) were reared in fresh water for 5 weeks using four artificial dry diets, Moina, or blended water hyacinth leaves as feed. The fry fed with artificial diets attained 83–95% mean survival ...
