Effects of arachidonic acid supplementation on larval and survival and reproductive performance in rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2007)
Fry of tropical marine fish needed for aquaculture still comes mostly from the wild. Thus, fry availability is a major constraint in the development and extension of aquaculture, especially in rural areas of developing ...
Morphological development and survival of Philippine silver therapon larvae, Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner, 1864) reared under different feeding schemes
(De La Salle University, 2016)
Philippine silver therapon, Leiopotherapon plumbeus, locally known as ayungin, is an endemic fish species in the country. The demand for silver therapon remained high despite the decline of its population and commercial ...
Feeding selectivity of the seahorse, Hippocampus kuda (Bleeker), juveniles under laboratory conditions
(Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 2012)
This study examined the feeding selectivity of Hippocampus kuda juveniles under captive conditions and evaluates different food organisms that could be used to improve hatchery-rearing of this species. Newly born H. kuda ...

Lipid nutrition studies on grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
The main objectives of this project were to study the lipid chain transfer from the egg stage through hatching and the patterns of lipid conservation or loss during starvation and feeding of larvae in order to elucidate ...
Yolk resorption, onset of feeding and survival potential of larvae of three tropical marine fish species reared in the hatchery
(Springer Verlag, 1986)
This paper provides basic early life-history information on milkfish (Chanos chanos), seabass (Lates calcarifer) and rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) which may explain in part the observed differences in their survival ...
Point-of-no-return and delayed feeding mortalities in first-feeding larvae of the silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner) (Teleostei: Terapontidae)
(Elsevier, 2020-02)
This study examined the incidence of mortalities among first-feeding post-yolk sac silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus (Kner) larvae deprived of live food in the hatchery. Starting after their yolk was consumed at 40 ...
Induction of moulting in hatchery-reared mangrove crab Scylla serrata juveniles through temperature manipulation or autotomy
(Wiley, 2019)
The effects of temperature and autotomy of chelipeds on survival, growth and moulting of mangrove crab (Scylla serrata) juveniles were investigated under laboratory conditions for 60 days. Hatchery‐produced crabs with ...
Artificial substratum consisting of poly-β-hydroxybutyrate-based biodegradable plastic improved the survival and overall performance of postlarval tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon
(Wiley, 2019)
The use of artificial substratum consisting of poly‐β‐hydroxybutyrate (PHB)‐based biodegradable plastic for penaeid shrimp culture was investigated in the present study. The survival of postlarval tiger shrimp Penaeus ...
Survival, growth and biomass of mud polychaete Marphysa iloiloensis (Annelida: Eunicidae) under different culture techniques
(John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2020-04-20)
Polychaetes are commercially exploited as fishing bait and supplemental diet to crustacean and finfish broodstock. However, scarcity of supply and biosecurity issues limits its use. Polychaete aquaculture has become the ...

Environmental factors affecting embryonic development, hatching and survival of early stage larvae of the grouper (Epinephelus coioides)
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2004)
These series of experiments were conducted to determine the effects of density (200, 400, 800 and 1600 eggs/litre), salinity (8, 16, 24, 32 and 40 ppt), aeration (0, 0.62, 1.25, 2.50 and 3.75 ml/min/litre) and light intensity ...
