Status of breeding and larval rearing of groupers
(Network of Aquaculture Centres in Asia-Pacific, 2002)
Attempts to breed groupers in captivity started about four decades ago. Ukawa et al. (1966) described the successful fertilization and embryonic development of the red grouper Epinephelus akaara. Fueled by the high market ...
Osmoregulation in Penaeus monodon: Effects of molting and external salinity
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
The effect of molting on osmotic, chloride, calcium and total protein concentrations in the hemolymph of the shrimp Penaeus monodon was investigated. Regardless of medium salinity, tissue water as well as osmotic and ...
Amino acid and fatty acid profiles in aquaculture nutrition studies
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1989)
The amino acid profile is an important parameter in the evaluation of protein quality and in requirement studies. Amino acid profiles are usually determined in 2 steps: hydrolysis of the protein to constituent amino acids ...
Studies on the sources of luminescent Vibrio harveyi in Penaeus monodon hatcheries
(Asian Fisheries Society, Fish Health Section, 1992)
One of the major problems in the otherwise highly successful Penaeus monodon hatchery industry in the Philippines is the occurrence of luminescent bacterial disease due to Vibrio harveyi. The possible sources of the bacteria ...
Growth and survival of Nile tilapia fingerlings in net cages without supplemental feed in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings were stocked at densities of 50, 100, 150 and 200 fish/m super(2) in fixed net cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines. These were reared without supplemental feed on 1 April-30 July 1980, 5 ...
Toxicity of four botanical insecticides to fingerlings of Nile tilapia and common carp
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)
Static bioassay test was done to determine the toxicity of four botanical insecticides (BI) - Blumea balsamifera leaves, Vitex negundo leaces, Azadirachta indica seeds, Tinospora rumphii stems to fingerlings (0.8 - 1.5g) ...
Development of hatchery techniques for the mud crab Scylla serrata (Forskål): Comparison of feeding schemes
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1999)
Scylla serrata larvae were reared in 3 L plastic containers and fed various amounts of artificial diets (AD) with or without natural food (NF: Brachionus rotundiformis and newly-hatched Artemia). The amounts of AD fed alone ...
Experimental transmission of hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) infection in Penaeus monodon postlarvae
(Fish Health Section, Asian Fisheries Society, 2005)
Hepatopancreatic parvovirus (HPV) infection in penaeid shrimps was first reported in various countries of the Asia-Pacific region in mid-1980. The virus affects the hepatopancreas of postlarvae and juveniles, usually leading ...
Recirculating aquaculture systems: experiences, concepts, designs, and equipment
(Philippine Association for the Advancement of Science (PhilAAS), 2002)
In a general sense, recirculating aquaculture system are designed tp approximate the fundamental aspects of natural system in order to support aquatic life. They may involve tank, pund, and other culture system where water ...
Preliminary trials of combined Artemia rearing and salt production in earthen salt ponds in the Philippines
(Universa Press, 1980)
This paper describes trials at combining Artemia rearing with salt production during the dry season, in newly-constructed earthen salt ponds (reservoir, evaporation, concentration, and crystallization ponds, total area of ...
