Biological evaluation of existing feed formulations for the grow-out culture of the mud crab, Scylla serrata
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
This study was conducted to identify a formulated pelleted feed for the grow-out culture of the mud crab. A commercial crab feed (CCF) was evaluated together with fish by-catch (FBC) and three test diets (formulated and ...
Pilot scale production of pellets suitable for mud crab Scylla serrata
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Studies were conducted towards the pilot scale production of stable and nutritionally adequate pellets suitable for mud crab Scylla serrata to help in efforts to increase mud crab production in the Philippines. Preliminary ...
Effect of feed binder on water stability and digestibility of formulated feed for the mud crab Scylla serrata
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
The binding capacity of six natural and eight synthetic feed binders were tested in a basal diet formulated for the mud crab. Incorporation levels of natural binders ranged from 1 to 25% while those of synthetic binders ...
Updates on the larviculture of mud crab at SEAFDEC/AQD
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Although the mud crab (Scylla serrata) hatchery technology has been developed, issues such as high cost of production due to the need for additional facilities and labor for natural food culture, inconsistent survival rate ...
Mud crab production trials at the College of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Aklan State University, New Washington, Aklan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Two hatchery and nursery trials have been conducted at the College of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Aklan State University (ASU) for the Multi-species Hatchery and Fishfarm Project from August to September 2014 and April ...
Growth, survival, proximate and fatty acid composition of sandworm Perinereis quatrefagesi (Grube, 1878) fed variable feed types
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Sandworm Perinereis quatrefagesi has been used as feed for crustacean broodstock due to its reproductive-enhancing properties particularly protein and highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs). Juvenile sandworms collected ...
Breeding and culture of the polychaete, Marphysa mossambica, as feed for the mud crab
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Marine worms (Annelida: Polychaeta) are considered as important food for crustacean broodstock because they contain hormones and correct balance of essential nutrients for reproduction. Marphysa mossambica (Peters, 1854) ...
Nursery culture of mud crab Scylla serrata fed diets supplemented with trytophan at two stocking densities
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)
Cannibalism has been recognized as one of the major problems in crab culture. The use of dietary tryptophan (TRP) that has been reported to reduce cannibalism in crabs under laboratory conditions was verified in pond nursery ...
