Recent developments in design and management of small-scale hatchery for Penaeus monodon in the Philippines
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1982)
It is a common belief that the zoea of Penaeus monodon are completely filter feeders. Thus, diatoms like chaetoceros and phytoflagellates are maintained at high feeding densities as much as 80 000 cells/ml in hatchery tanks ...
Status of breeding and larval rearing of groupers
(Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific, 2002)
Attempts to breed groupers in captivity started about four decades ago. Ukawa et al. (1966) described the successful fertilization and embryonic development of the red grouper Epinephelus akaara. Fueled by the high market ...

Improved hatchery rearing techniques for the Asian catfish, Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther)
(European Aquaculture Society, 1995)
The Asian catfish, Clarias macrocephalus, is a popular freshwater foodfish in the Philippines. However, grow-out farming of this species is hampered by the lack of juveniles for stocking. A series of experiments on zooplankton ...
Successful inoculation of Artemia and production of cysts in man-made salterns in the Philippines
(Universa Press, 1980)
The objective of the inoculation described in this paper was to test the feasibility of culturing Artemia in man-made earthen salterns and of producing adults and cysts for use in aquaculture projects in the Philippines. ...
Larval rearing of Penaeus monodon: Feeds and feeding techniques
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)
Larval rearing of P.monodon requires mass culture of selected phytoplankton and zooplankton species. In the protozocal stage, Skelatonoma; Chaetoceros or Tetraselmis is given singly or in combination. The rotifer Brachionus ...
Efficiency of some cyanophytes as larval feed for silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) and the culture of Spirulina platensis
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Six-day old carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitix) fry (mean weight 3 mg) were stocked at 5/l in aquaria. These were fed with unialgal cultures of three species of blue-green algae, namely: Anabaena sp., Oscillatoria quadripunctulata ...

Cultivation of live feed for the rearing of sugpo (Penaeus monodon) larvae
(European Mariculture Society, 1979)
The sugpo, Penaeus monodon, is a very important prawn species in Southeast Asia. It is extremely euryhaline and fast growing. Interest in the farming of this prawn species is very high. Unfortunately, the supply of natural ...
Yeasts as food organisms in aquaculture
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1982)
The use of yeast as feed in aquaculture is discussed. It has been successfully used as feed for Penaeus japonicus larvae, for Brachionus plicatilis mass culture, and for the improvement of nutritional quality of Tigriopus ...
Production economics and marketing of mud crabs in the Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2001)
The current price of mud crabs in the local market is relatively higher than fish and mollusks and is projected to increase in the world market. This increasing trend in domestic and export markets is expected to step-up ...
The effects of feeds and feeding levels on the survival of a prawn, Penaeus monodon larvae
(Kagoshima University Research Center for the South Pacific, 1980)
Penaeus monodon larvae were grown from zoea<sub>1</sub> to mysis<sub>2</sub> stages using varying levels of single-celled Chaetoceros sp., baker's yeast, and a combination of the two. The effects of feeds and feeding on ...
