Effects of salinity on egg development and hatching of Siganus guttatus
(University of San Carlos, 1986)
Experiments were conducted to determine the tolerance of Siganus guttatus eggs to salinity changes. In the first run, the female was induced to spawn spontaneously by using human chorionic gonadotropin. The fertilized eggs ...
Weaning of hatchery-bred milkfish larvae from live food to artificial diets
(Elsevier, 1984)
Two-week old milkfish (Chanos chanos ) larvae (7.5 mm standard length, 2.3 mg wet body weight) previously fed only rotifers were weaned abruptly to six artificial diets (commercial feed TP, artificial plankton AS and BP, ...
Effects of feeding frequency and amount of feeding on the growth of the grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1989)
The effects of feeding frequency and amount of food on the growth of juvenile groupers (Epinephelus malabaricus) were investigated for 12 weeks of rearing in net-cages set in an earthen pond. The juveniles (110-130 g in ...
Influence of nutrition on the hepatocytes of Chanos chanos (Chanidae: Teleostei)
(Elsevier, 1984)
The hepatocytes of milkfish (C. chanos) fry and fingerlings offered a variety of diets differ considerably as was shown by means of transmission electron microscopy. For fry it was shown that a 7 day starvation period ...
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 ...
Feeding habits of larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus in the laboratory
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
The feeding habits of Siganus guttatus larvae were determined in laboratory rearing studies at 23.8-30.3 degree C by examination of digestive tract contents of larvae given rotifers and/or brine shrimp. Larvae were initially ...
Morphological development of the swimming and feeding apparatus in larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus.
(1986)
The development of body parts for swimming and feeding in Siganus guttatus larvae was studied in samples reared in the laboratory at temperatures of 27.3-30 degree C. From the observations, the larval stage of S. guttatus ...
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 ...
Induced breeding and larval rearing experiments with milkfish Chanos chanos (Forskal) in the Philippines
(Elsevier, 1984)
Salmon pituitary homogenate was used alone or in combination with human chorionic gonadotropin, to induce spawing in captive and wild adult milkfish at ambient temperature (26–30°C) and salinity of 34%.. Healthy or slightly ...
Year-round spawning and seed production of the rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Elsevier, 1986)
A series of experiments on the spawning and larval rearing of Siganus guttatus was conducted during a 14-month period in 1984–1985. Spawning occurred every month throughout the year, without hormonal treatment, between the ...
