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 ...
Comparison of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizer in milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), ponds
(Elsevier, 1988)
The efficacy of the silo and broadcast methods of applying organic fertilizers in ponds for the production of pond-floor, microbenthic biological complex, a natural food source known as lablab, was tested in 1-ha ponds, ...
Transition from endogenous to exogenous nutrition sources in larval rabbitfish Siganus guttatus
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1988)
The early larval development of Siganus guttatus was studied with emphasis on the transition from endogenous to exogenous feeding. Three rearing trials were conducted as follows: 1) rearing in a 5 ton concrete tank at ...
The effect of dietary protein-energy levels on growth and metabolism of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
<ol><li>Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean weight, 2.8 g) were fed diets containing white fishmeal and gelatin with varying protein-energy to total metabolizable energy (PE:TME) ratios.</li><li>Amino acids were incorporated ...
Critical factors influencing survival and hatching of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport
(Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of loading density, length of transit time, temperature and salinity on milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) eggs during simulated transport were examined. Rocking motion approximating conditions of transport of ...
Cage culture of Oreochromis aureus and Oreochromis niloticus hybrids in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Taylor & Francis, 1988)
A reciprocal cross of male Oreochromis aureus and female Oreochromis niloticus were made to produce the hybrids stocked in cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines with and without feeding. The growth rates of the hybrids from ...
Effects of continuous lighting on growth and survival of first-feeding larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Elsevier, 1988)
The effects of 24-h lighting on feeding, growth and survival of first-feeding larvae of Siganus guttatus were tested. Continuous light gave a higher mean survival (31.69%) with a maximum of 40.50% compared to natural ...
An improved method for collecting naturally spawned milkfish eggs from floating cages
(Elsevier, 1988)
Natural spawnings of captive milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) held in floating cages were observed in 1980, 1981, 1983 and 1985. Frequency of spawnings increased from two in 1980 to 41 in 1985. Various collectors and ...
An inexpensive tag for short-term studies in milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) and in seabass (Lates calcarifer Bloch)
(Blackwell Publishing, 1988)
An opercular tag for marking adult milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) and seabass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) is described. High tag retention and relatively low mortality rates were observed in adult fish handled two to ten ...
Growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) fry fed at different intake levels and feeding frequencies
(Elsevier, 1988)
This study was conducted to assess the effect of different levels of dietary intake and feeding frequencies on growth and survival of bigheadcarp, Aristichthys nobilis, fry. The feeding rates consisted of 10%, 20%, and 30% ...
