The ecological impact of tilapia cage culture in Sampaloc Lake, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)
Sampaloc lake showed imminent biological death as a consequence of intensive tilapia farming in floating net cages. The progressive disappearance of dissolved oxygen in the entire water column may be an irreversible trend ...
Mangrove conversion and brackishwater pond culture in the Philippines
(Asian Wetland Bureau; Protected Areas and Wildlife Bureau, 1992)
Around 50% of mangrove loss in the Philippines can be traced to brackishwater pond construction. The decrease in mangroves from 450 000 ha in 1920 to 132 500 ha in 1990 has been accompanied by expansion of culture ponds ...

Ability of sandfish (Holothuria scabra) to utilise organic matter in black tiger shrimp ponds
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2012)
Due to frequent viral disease outbreaks, a large proportion of shrimp aquaculture in South-East Asian countries has switched from black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) to P. vannamei, an exotic species originally imported ...

Overview of sea cucumber aquaculture and sea-ranching research in the South-East Asian region
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 2012)
South-East Asia has traditionally been the global centre of production of tropical sea cucumbers for Chinese markets. Early research into culture methods took place outside this region, notably in India, the Pacific region ...
Development of broodstock for small-scale shrimp hatchery (with particular reference to Penaeus monodon)
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1982)
To be self-sufficient in spawner/larval supply, a small-scale Penaeus monodon hatchery should have the following: 1) broodstock tanks or pens depending on location and other factors; 2) pond sources of broodstock of ...
Microbial diseases in aquaculture: issues and challenges
(Marine Science Institute, University of the Philippines, 2007)
Aquaculture is the farming of aquatic organisms including fish, molluscs, crustaceans and aquatic plants where farming implies some intervention in the rearing process to enhance production, such as regular stocking, ...
The larval and juvenile fish community in Pandan Bay, Panay Island, Philippines
(Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1986)
Long-term (1975-1977) collections of larval and juvelnile fish were made from 1) onshore, a sandy beach flanked by a coral terrace and a river mouth, and 2) 500m offshore in 30 m deep water in Pandan Bay. About 70 species ...
Pond culture of mud crab (Scylla serrata): an economic analysis.
(1992)
The study compares the profitability of mud crab pond culture with existing crab fattening practices in Iloilo, Philippines.
Monoculture of Scylla serrata at stocking densities of 5,000, 10,000, 15,000 and 20,000 pcs/ha ...
Microbound larval feed as supplement to live food for milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) larvae
(European Aquaculture Society, 1991)
Highly variable results using Brachionus as food for milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae may be related to: (1) relatively low content of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs) in Brachionus and (2) inability of first feeding ...
Survival and growth of milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) larvae reared on larval feeds as supplement to live food
