Milkfish nutrition: A review
(Philippine Council for Aquatic and Marine Research and Development, 1989)
This paper reviews recent work on milkfish nutrition. Substantial progress had been made towards understanding the digestive physiology of milkfish. Major enzaymes envolved in the digestions of carbohydrates, protein and ...
The effect of dietary protein-energy levels on growth and metabolism of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Elsevier, 1988)
<ol><li>Groups of milkfish juveniles (mean weight, 2.8 g) were fed diets containing white fishmeal and gelatin with varying protein-energy to total metabolizable energy (PE:TME) ratios.</li><li>Amino acids were incorporated ...
Combinations of dietary fat sources in dry diets for Chanos chanos fingerlings
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
A study was conducted to determine the effects of 1:1 ratio of several dietary fat sources added in semipurified diets at 10% level on milkfish fingerlings. Results showed that the cod liver oil + coconut oil diet promoted ...
Ipil-ipil leaf meal as supplemental feed for T. nilotica in cages
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1980)
Tilapia nolotica fingerlings were grown to marketable size in cages in Laguna Lake at a stocking density of 150/m super(2). Those given supplemental feed of ipil-ipil leaf meal at varying levels showed faster growth compared ...
Fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica in aquaria using phytoplankton as natural feed
(University of the Philippines at Los Baños, 1982)
Two experiments were conducted to demonstrate the efficiency of phytoplankton as natural feed in fry-to-fingerling production of Tilapia nilotica . In the first experiment, growth and survival rates of fry given a sustained ...
Effects of food ration on growth, condition factor, food conversion efficiency, and net yield of estuary grouper, Epinephelus salmoides Maxwell, cultured in floating net-cages
(Elsevier, 1982)
The effects of food ration on the growth and yield of the estuary grouper raised in floating net-cages were investigated. The optimum ration given on alternate days was 5% body weight (wet) which gave the best mean fish ...
Dietary crude protein requirement of Tilapia nilotica fry
(University of the Philippines at Los Baños, 1982)
Tilapia fry were stocked at three per liter in wooden tank compartments or glass aquaria filled with 50 or 35 l of fresh water in three separate feeding trials. The fry were fed isocaloric practical diets containing 20, ...
Effects of increased stocking density and supplemental feeding on the production of milkfish fingerlings
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1982)
Experiments were conducted in twelve 144 sq. m. brackishwater ponds at Leganes Research Station, SEAFDEC, to determine the effect of increased stocking density and supplemental feeding on milkfish fingerling production. ...
Culture experiments on the harpacticoid copepod, Tisbintra elongata Mori, and evaluation of that species as a food organism for milkfish larvae
(Faculty of Fisheries, Kagoshima University, 1980)
The mass culture of the harpacticoid copepod, Tisbintra elongata, indigenous to Panay Island were conducted, feeding them on several kinds of food materials. Salinity tolerance as physiological parameter was also examined. ...
Feed preference of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) fry given different algal species as natural feed
(Elsevier, 1986)
Acclimated milkfish fry (mean wet weight, 6.0 mg) were fed with unialgal cultures of five species of freshwater algae: Oscillatoria quadripunctulata, Chroococcus dispersus, Navicula notha, Euglena elongata and Chlorella ...
