Intensive prawn farming in the Philippines: ecological, social, and economic implications
(Springer Verlag, 1991)
The benefits of intensive farming of the giant tiger prawn Penaeus monodon in the Philippines are discussed in relation to the environmental costs. Ecological effects include mangrove conversion into ponds; use of antibiotics ...
Large scale hatchery production of Penaeus monodon using natural food and artificial diets
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Natural food in combination with either SEAFDEC formulated or other commercial larvae diets was tested for large scale production of Penaeus monodon postlarvae. Two trials of 3 treatments each, 2 replications of each ...
Cryopreservation of different strains of the euryhaline rotifer Brachionus plicatilis embryos
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1991)
Cryopreserevation of different strains of Brachionus plicatilis symmetrical stage embryos was conducted. One S-type strain, namely Yashima-S (YS), and three L-type strains, namely Yashima-L (YL), Nagasaki (NG), and Hamana ...
Biological evaluation of frozen zooplankton as food for milkfish (Chanos chanos) fry
(Verlag Paul Parey, 1991)
Milkfish fry with an average standard length and weight of 13.88 mm and 3.95 mg, respectively, were reared for 30 days using live and frozen Moina macrocopa and Brachionus plicatilis at feeding densities of 10–20 individuals ...
Lipid and fatty acid composition of brackishwater- and freshwater-reared milkfish (Chanos chanos Forskal)
(Elsevier, 1991)
Lipid and fatty acid composition of the various sections of brackishwater- and freshwater-reared milkfish were determined by chromatographic methods. Lipids consisted mainly of the neutral type, which in turn was composed ...
Economic feasibility of polyculture of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) with Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) in brackishwater ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1991)
The polyculture of tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) with milkfish (Chanos chanos) has been practiced in the Philippines, bit little is known about the possible polyculture of the shrimp with the tilapias in spite of increasing ...
Effects of physico-chemical factors and nutrients on the growth of Spirulina platensis isolated from Lake Kojima, Japan
(The Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1991)
The effects of physico-chemical factors and nutrients on the growth responses of Spirulina platensis isolated from Lake Kojima (K-2 strain) were determined. The optimum conditions for growth were the following: ligh intensity ...
Growth, survival and feed conversion of Nile tilapia fingerlings fed diets containing Bayo-n-ox, a commercial growth promoter
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
A feeding experiment was conducted to determine the effect of a commercial growth promoter, Bayo-n-ox, on Nile tilapia fingerlings (mean initial weight 3.6 g). After 6 weeks, the weight gain of fish given 25 mg Bayo-n-ox/kg ...
Economic analysis of an integrated milkfish broodstock and hatchery operation as a public enterprise
(Elsevier, 1991)
The National Bangus (Milkfish) Breeding Program of the Philippines, which was launched by the Philippine government in 1981, had succeeded in spawning milkfish in captivity and in rearing the eggs to fry that were stockable ...
Occurrence and pathology of Penaeus monodon baculovirus infection in hatcheries and ponds in the Philippines
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
Samples from Penaeus monodon hatcheries (2-3 day old larvae or Zoea 1 to 34 day old post larvae or PL<sub>34</sub>) and ponds (15 to 159 days old in the pond) were histologically examined for the presence of eosinophilic ...
