Culture of invertebrates as food organisms for village-level fish hatcheries
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1982)
A review is presented of some practical methods that may be applied by fish farmers in producing food organisms for fish and prawn hatcheries. Organisms involved in the discussion include Moina, chironomid larvae, mosquito ...
Collection of naturally-spawned milkfish eggs in floating cages
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Natural spawnings of milkfish from floating cages were obtained from different stocks of 5-7 year-old milkfish in 1980, 1981, 1983 and 1985. The maximum number of eggs collected in 1980, using a series of 1-m diameter ...
Induced spawning and larval rearing of grouper (Epinephelus salmoides Maxwell)
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Broodfish of grouper (Epinephelus salmoides ) were induced to spawn by hormonal induction. The hormones used for this experiment were HCG + pituitary gland (PG) and LRH-a. The results showed that at dosages of 500 IU HCG ...
Releasing hormones as an effective agent in the induction of spawning in captivity of sea bass (Lates calcarifer)
(Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research, 1987)
A study was conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of luteinising-hormone releasing hormones in the induction of spawning of Lates calcarifer using different administration techniques: pellet implantation, Chinese analogue ...
Integrated farming of broiler chickens with fish and shrimp in brackishwater ponds
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
An experiment on the integrated farming of broiler chickens with milkfish (Chanos chanos), tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and shrimp (Penaeus indicus) in brackishwater ponds was conducted in 1,000-m<sup>2</sup> ponds of ...
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 ...
Disease investigation of transported Chanos chanos stocked in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)
Milkfish,Chanos chanos fingerlings transported by boat (petuya) for seven to eight hours were observed for stress-inducing factors during transport, daily for 10 days after stocking in pens in Laguna Lake, Philippines. ...
Culture and screening of food organisms as potential larval food for finfish and shellfish
(South China Sea Fisheries Development and Coordinating Programme, 1982)
The culture of food organisms for fin and shellfish larvae is discussed in detail. Some of the artificial and enriched media that have been developed and tested for microalgae culture are enumerated and some isolation ...
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 ...
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 ...
