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 ...
Shelter colour preference of the postlarvae of the giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
The addition of artificial shelters of various materials has been used in Macrobrachium rosenbergii tanks and ponds as a means of increasing productivity. The present study investigated the shelter colour preference of M. ...

Studies on the habitat and food of juvenile milkfish in the wild
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1981)
Juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos ) were collected from several different wild environments in Panay Island and neighboring islands. The fish were measured and the food ingested examined. Conditions of milkfish habitats ...
Increasing milkfish (Chanos chanos) yields in brackishwater ponds through increased stocking rates and supplementary feeding
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1990)
Brackishwater milkfish culture in the Philippines is normally practiced at fish stocking rates of 2,000-3,000 ha<sup>-1</sup> with fertilizers as the sole nutrient input. Supplementary feeding is not common. We stocked two ...
Evaluation of agar-bound microparticulate diet as alternative food in abalone hatchery: Effects of agar concentrations and feeding frequencies
(National Shellfisheries Association, 2013)
The performance of an agar-bound microparticulate diet (A-MPD) was evaluated on feeding postlarval abalone Haliotis asinina, focusing on the effects of agar concentrations and feeding frequencies. Larval abalone, obtained ...
Comparing profits from shrimp aquaculture with and without green-water technology in the Philippines
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)
To reduce disease impact, Philippine farmers developed the green-water (GW) system, which has been spreading rapidly since 2008. In the most applied GW-system, the shrimp pond receives water from a reservoir stocked with ...

Daily amount of rotifers taken by a sea bass Lates calcarifer larvae
(Science and Technology Information Institute, 1990)
The amount of rotifers consumed by a single sea bass Lates calcarifer larva per day (R) was examined by both the direct and by the satiation-digestion methods. In the direct method, R is estimated by the number of rotifers ...
