Daily rates of ingestion on rotifers and Artemia nauplii by laboratory-reared grouper larvae of Epinephelus suillus
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1994)
The amount of rotifers and Artemia nauplii consumed daily by the grouper Epinephelus suillus larvae was determined through examination of gut contents. The larvae (2.6 mm TL) were initially fed rotifers on day 2 and newly ...

(Elsevier, 1994)
Wild-caught mangrove red snapper, Lutjanus argentimaculatus, reared in a concrete tank for 1 year, spontaneously matured in June 1992. On 19 August 1992, a sexually mature female and male (4.6 and 3.2 kg body weight, ...
Acute toxicity of nifurpirinol, a fish chemotherapeutant, to milkfish (Chanos chanos) fingerlings
(Springer Verlag, 1994)
Nifurpirinol (trade name Furanace and originally known as P-7138), is a nitrofuran derivative synthesized by the Dainippon Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., Japan, and was developed exclusively as a broad-spectrum antibiotic for ...
Feeding live or frozen Moina macrocopa (Strauss) to Asian sea bass, Lates calcarifer (Bloch), larvae
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
Growth and survival of hatchery-reared sea bass, Lates calcarifer, larvae fed live or frozen Moina macrocopa were determined, In Experiment 1, Moina was fed to sea bass of different sizes: 3.6 mm, 5.5 mm and 7.6 mm standard ...
Induction of sex inversion in juvenile grouper, Epinephelus suillus, (Valenciennes) by injections of 17α-Methyltestosterone
(The Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1994)
Four groups of two-year old juvenile groupers (Epinephelus suillus), each with 8-9 individuals of mean body weight (BW) 1.2 kg, were treated with 17α-methyltestosterone (MT). MT was injected intramuscularly within the range ...
The effect of lipid-enriched broodstock diets on spawning and on egg and larval quality of hatchery-bred rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus)
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1994)
Three isocaloric and isonitrogenous diets formulated to contain 12 (diet A), 15 (B) and 18% (C) lipids were tested on hatchery-bred rabbitfish Siganus guttatus broodstock to determine their effect on spawning and quality ...
Oral delivery in aquaculture: Controlled release of proteins from chitosan-alginate microcapsules
(Aquacultural Engineering Society (AES), 1994)
Potentially, the most useful method of fish vaccination is oral administration. However, this technique is presently only partially effective because of the apparent destruction of the vaccine in the fish digestive system, ...
Vaccination of European sea bass fry through bioencapsulation of Artemia nauplii
(European Aquaculture Society, 1994)
European sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) fry vaccinated orally via bioencapsulation in Artemia nauplii or by bath method exhibited better performance than control fish in terms of growth, food conversion and resistance to ...
Thyroid hormone surges during milkfish metamorphosis
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
Both thyroxine (T<sub>4</sub>) and triiodothyronine (T<sub>3</sub>) were detected in fertilized eggs and larvae of milkfish. The concentration of T<sub>4</sub> was lower than that of T<sub>3</sub> only in fertilized eggs ...
Ammonia excretion rates of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, in fresh and sea water
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1994)
The weight-specific ammonia excretion rate of sea bass (Lates calcarifer) fry in fresh water is higher than that of those in sea water. The allometric equation \(y = 24.426 \times ^{-0.4714}\) best describes the relationship ...
