Milkfish culture in the Philippines
(South Pacific Aquaculture Development Project, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 1990)
In the Philippines, the level of intensity of Chanos chanos culture is categorized into traditional and extensive management. Pond types for different culture systems, stocking practices, acclimation practices, water ...
Economics of milkfish culture in the Philippines
(Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, South Pacific Aquaculture Development Project, 1990)
This paper discusses the costs and returns of three phases in milkfish culture as practiced in the Philippines namely: nursery; stunting or retarding the growth of milkfish fingerlings; and modular culture system.
The ...
Increasing milkfish (Chanos chanos) yields in brackishwater ponds through increased stocking rates and supplementary feeding
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Brackishwater milkfish culture in the Philippines is normally practiced at fish stocking rates of 2,000-3,000 ha<sup>-1</sup> with fertilizers as the sole nutrient input. Supplementary feeding is not common. We stocked two ...
Daily amount of rotifers taken by a sea bass Lates calcarifer larvae
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1990)
The amount of rotifers consumed by a single sea bass Lates calcarifer larva per day (R) was examined by both the direct and by the satiation-digestion methods. In the direct method, R is estimated by the number of rotifers ...
Survival of larval milkfish, Chanos chanos, during changeover from endogenous to exogenous energy sources
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Survival of laboratory-reared larvae of milkfish, Chanos chanos , during transition from the prelarval to postlarval stages was examined in relation to the changeover of energy sources. The prelarval and early postlarval ...
Hormone-induced spawning of cultured tropical finfishes
(IFREMER, 1990)
Commercially important tropical freshwater and marine finfishes are commonly spawned with pituitary homogenate, human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and semi-purified fish gonadotropins. These preparations are often administered ...
Optimized feeding strategies in the larviculture of the Asian seabass Lates calcarifer.
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
This paper reports on the progress made at the Tigbauan hatchery of SEAFDEC in the Philippines, with the larviculture of the Asian seabass Lates calcarifer when using w3-HUFA enriched Brachionus and Artemia . In view of ...
Acceptability of selected zooplankton and phytoplankton for growing larvae/fry of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis).
(Proceedings of the Asian Symposium on Freshwater Fish Culture, 11-15 October 1985, Beijing, China, 1990)
Bacterial exoskeletal lesions of the tiger prawn Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Tank- and pond-reared Penaeus monodon with exoskeletal lesions were examined. The incidence rate was up to 36% for broodstock in concrete tanks and to 20% for pond-reared prawns. The increase in disease incidence was related ...
Dietary manipulation to control the chronic soft-shell syndrome in tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon Fabricius.
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Penaeus monodon collected from brackishwater ponds in Iloilo, Philippines, were induced to become soft-shelled in the laboratory for 3-4 weeks. Eight isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets containing 0:0; 0:1; 1:0; 1:0.2; ...
