Effect of aquaculture on world fish supplies
(Nature Publishing Group, 2000)
Global production of farmed fish and shellfish has more than doubled in the past 15 years. Many people believe that such growth relieves pressure on ocean fisheries, but the opposite is true for some types of aquaculture. ...
Improved hatchery rearing of mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus, in large tanks with small rotifer (Brachionus plicatilis) and Artemia
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1996)
A hatchery rearing scheme for the red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus, is described. The feeding regime consisted of Chlorella, Brachionus, Artemia and minced fish. The average survival rate at day 24 was 27% in 3-ton ...
The morphology and life cycle of the gill monogenean (Pseudorhabdosynochus lantauensis) on orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) cultured in the Philippines
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2010)
The morphology of Pseudorhabdosynochus lantauensis is described. It is the most numerous parasite recovered from the gills of cultured orange-spotted grouper Epinephelus coioides in the Philippines and is smaller compared ...
Lipid and fatty acid composition of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) grown in freshwater and seawater
(Elsevier, 1992)
The lipid and fatty acid compositions of the various organs of milkfish fed with an invariant diet and reared in seawater (SW) and freshwater (FW) were determined using column chromatography and gas chromatography. ...
Size- and weight-dependent cannibalism in hatchery-bred sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch)
(Blackwell Publishing, 1991)
The relationship of predator size to maximum prey size, and predator weight to weight of prey consumed among cannibalistic sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) in a hatchery were assessed. Maximum prey size was computed from ...
Induction of sex change in female Epinephelus coioides by social control
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1997)
Mature female groupers (Epinephelus coioides) of different sizes were stocked in three floating net cages (2 fishes each) and in tanks (2-4 fishes) to induce sex change in the bigger female grouper after isolation from the ...
Effect of dietary fatty acids on growth of milkfish Chanos chanos fry in brackish water
(Elsevier, 1996)
Five purified microbound diets containing 1% of 18:2n − 6, 18:3n − 3, 20:4n − 6, or n − 3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA: 60% 20:5n − 3 + 40% 22:6n − 3) in addition to 8% 18:1n − 9, and a control diet containing 9% ...
Fish farming in marine pens and cages in the Philippines: appropriate technology?
(Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc., 1998)
Contributed as Discussant in Technical Session 3 on Environmental Impacts of Marine Fishcage Farming, 12th Annual Meeting of the Society of Aquaculture Engineers of the Philippines, Inc. (SAEP), held at the BFAR-National ...
Effect of shrimp biomass and feeding on the anti-Vibrio harveyi activity of Tilapia sp. in a simulated shrimp–tilapia polyculture system
(Elsevier, 2006)
The efficiency of Tilapia hornorum to control luminous bacteria in a simulated shrimp farm environment has been reported. However, the effects of different factors such as feed input and the shrimp biomass were not taken ...
Characterization of betanodaviruses in the Philippines
(European Association of Fish Pathologists, 2008)
Viral nervous necrosis caused by betanodaviruses is one of the most devastating diseases in cultured marine finfish. In the Philippines, mass mortalities occurred in sea bass, Lates calcarifer larvae and grouper, Epinephelus ...
