Preliminary notes on the salinity preference of milkfish, Chanos chanos, fry
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
Vertical salinity gradient columns were used to investigate the salinity preference of milkfish fry. Newly captured fry showed a preference for 32‰ salinity. Fry which had been in captivity for one to five days, at 12 or ...
Preliminary observation on the number of vertebra in milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
The existence of races and/or subpopulation in milkfish, a widely distributed species, is suggested by many workers. Comparison of mean numbers of vertebrae is one of the useful method of distinguishing subpopulations. The ...
Qualitative analysis of the contents of the anterior portion of the oesophagus from adult milkfish, Chanos chanos, captured in Pandan Bay from 10 May-June 1975
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
Qualitative analysis of food items in the anterior spiral portion of the oesophagus suggests that adult milkfish feed on both benthic and planktonic materials.
Physiological functions of the epibranchial organ of milkfish from the point of its ontogeny
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
The epibranchial organ of milkfish was believed for long to be a respiratory organ similar to that in Anabantoids. Later on, the structure was considered to be an accessory to the digestive system. The observations made ...
Reviews and recommendations on current and future research activities for the biological investigations on milkfish
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
Presented in this paper are the recommendations on current and future research activities for the biological investigations on milkfish (Chanos chanos). Included were the bahavior and bio-ecology of milkfish in the wild. ...

(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
The paper gives an account of the research work carried out at Jepara, Indonesia, on induction of maturity of milkfish in ponds and enclosures, and procurement of the spawners from the wild for seed production by hypophysation. ...
Notes on the capture, handling and transport of the sabalo or adult milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
The paper describes a simple and inexpensive method of handling and transporting wild sabalo captured from the sea.
Preliminary capture, husbandry and induced breeding results with the milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
The program objective is to breed the milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forskal), in captivity and to raise the fry from the egg, undertaking any research and development which may be necessary to attain that goal.
In this, the ...
Occurrence of milkfish eggs in the adjacent waters of Panay Island, Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
Location of spawning grounds of milkfish is one of the most important steps towards gaining knowledge on the spawning habits of the fish as well as the early life history and nature of its eggs and larvae. The present study ...
Notes on food and feeding habits of milkfish (Chanos chanos) from the sea
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1976)
Study on the natural food of adult milkfish was made from specimens caught from the open sea. The contents of guts from 15 specimens were qualitatively analysed, and both planktonic as well as benthic forms were encounted. ...
