Euryhaline rotifer Proales similis as initial live food for rearing fish with small mouth
(Elsevier, 2014)The SS-type rotifer Brachionus rotundiformis is a common initial food for rearing fish larvae with a small mouth. However, there are commercially important fish species whose mouth sizes are too small to feed on ... -
Reducing and managing disaster risk through coastal resource management: A Philippine case
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2013)Recently, disaster risk reduction and management was adopted by the national and local governments in the Philippines to prevent or mitigate the impacts of hazards. As a consequence, the Local Government Units of the coastal ... -
Clearance rates and ingestion efficiency of the Japanese scallop Patinopecten yessoensis
(Plankton Society of Japan, 2013)In coastal ecosystems, variations in food quantity may have significant effects on the clearance and ingestion rates of suspension-feeding bivalves. In this study, clearance rates and ingestion efficiencies were determined ... -
Mudcrab pen culture in mangroves
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)Over the years, commercial production of mudcrab, Scylla spp, has been undertaken only in bamboo or net-fenced brackishwater ponds. Its feasibility was proven through series of verification trials conducted in commercial ... -
The economics and marketing of cage-raised finfish and pen-raised mudcrab
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)As part of the technology verification exercise for technologies developed through research, the economics and marketing aspects were investigated before such technologies can be extended to industry practitioners. These ... -
Quality of hatchery-reared juveniles for marine fisheries stock enhancement
(Elsevier, 2007)The potential for stock enhancement by release of hatchery-reared juveniles continues to be a topic of interest to researchers and fisheries managers. While, in many studies, the focus has tended to be on the technology ... -
Culture of finfish in netcages
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)This report consists of two parts, the first deals on the cage culture of grouper, and the second on cage culture of tilapia. The culture of groupers is done in netcages set in marine waters, while tilapia is raised in ... -
