Milkfish nutrition: A review
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)
This paper reviews recent work on milkfish nutrition. Substantial progress had been made towards understanding the digestive physiology of milkfish. Major enzaymes envolved in the digestions of carbohydrates, protein and ...
Status of shrimp nutrition and feed development in Southeast Asia.
(Asian Fisheries Society. AFS Spec. Publ. 4, 1989)
World demand for shrimp has increased significantly in the last decade. Of the 32 species investigated, the most commonly cultured in Southeast Asia is the Penaeus monodon . Formulated feed constituted around 50% of the ...
The effect of various levels of protein, fat carbohydrates and energy on growth, survival and body composition of Chanos chanos fingerlings
(Center for Agricultural Publishing and Documentation, Pudoc Wageningen, 1989)
Rice and fish are staple foods in the Philipines as well as in other parts of Southeast Asia, where calorie/protin malnutrition is a serious probem. Milkfish, (Chanos chanos) is well-liked by the masses and, therefore, ti ...
Effect of feeding regimes on growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis Richardson) fry
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)
Two five-week feeding trials were undertaken to evaluate growth and survival of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis ) fry of 1.9-2.4 mg mean weight reared on various feeding regimes. In Treatment 1, the carp fry were fed ...
Effect of fatty acid composition of broodstock diet on tissue fatty acid patterns and egg fertilization and hatching in pond-reared Penaeus monodon
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)
The effect of dietary fatty acid composition on tissue fatty acid patterns and Penaeus monodon was evaluated with the use of 3 practical diets. Diets were formulated to contain the same basal components but with various ...
Formulated feeds for Penaeus monodon
(ASEAN/UNDP/FAO Regional Small-Scale Coastal Fisheries Development Project, 1989)
The paper discusses the food and feeding habits of Penaeus monodon , present knowledge of nutrient requirements and available formulation in the market including those developed at the Aquaculture Department, Southeast ...
Use of kappa-carrageenan microbound diet (C-MBD) as feed for Penaeus monodon larvae
(Springer Verlag, 1989)
The performance of an artificial practical diet, kappa-carrageenan microbound diet (C-MBD) was assessed on Penaeus monodon larvae at the SEAFDEC Broodstock and Maturation Experimental Laboratory in March 1986. Shrimps were ...
Effect of storage temperature on the quality of diets for the prawn, Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Elsevier, 1989)
The effect of storage temperature was evaluated on the basis of growth response of prawns fed for 10 weeks with diets stored at 0°C, 10°C, 28°C-31°C (ambient temperatures) and 40°C for a period of 10 weeks. Prawns were ...
Food preference of wild milkfish juveniles in connection with habitat and food availability
(Taylor & Francis, 1989)
Through quantitative determination of the gut content of wild milk fish (Chanos chanos) juveniles, the study aimed to evaluate the food preference of the fish in relation to its availability in the pond so that necessary ...
An evaluation of indigenous protein sources as potential component in the diet formulation for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, using essential amino acid index (EAAI)
(Elsevier, 1989)
The essential amino acid index (EAAI) could be used in screening potential protein sources. However, when formulating diets, EAAI should be supported with feeding trials and digestibility tests to determine the extent of ...
