Nursery culture of sandfish Holothuria scabra in sea-based floating hapa nets: Effects of initial stocking density, size grading and net replacement frequency
(Elsevier, 2020-09)
Sea-based culture of early juvenile sandfish Holothuria scabra up to fingerling size (>2 g) using floating hapa nets has been confirmed as a viable nursery system in tropical countries such as the Philippines. However, ...
Value chain analysis of the horse mussel Modiolus metcalfei (Hanley, 1843) fishery in Iloilo, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 2020-06-30)
The exploitation of horse mussels Modiolus metcalfei (Hanley, 1843) in Dumangas, Iloilo has been going on for decades, yet effective fisheries management remains hindered by the poor understanding of the fishery. A value ...
Efficacy of poultry by-product meal as an effective alternative to fish meal in aquaculture feed for milkfish Chanos chanos
(Japan International Research Center for Agricultural Sciences, 2020)
We verified the efficiency of poultry by-product meal (PBM) as a substitute for fish meal (FM) in feed for juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos). Juveniles (mean 48.0 g) were fed for 12 weeks with two experimental feeds ...
Biofloc technology (BFT): A promising approach for the intensive production of ornamental fish
(Bioflux (Bioflux SRL), 2021)
Biofloc technology (BFT) is an approach in the rearing of fish and shrimp as a means to support intensive culture, maintain optimum water quality, recycle the nutrients and reduce feed costs. The technology is primarily ...
Daytime habitat use and abundance of a freshwater shrimp Macrobrachium yui Holthuis, 1950 (Decapoda: Palaemonidae) in tropical forest stream, northern Laos
(Carcinological Society of Japan, 2021-11-30)
From 2008 to 2014, we monitored the abundance and daytime habitat use of the freshwater shrimp <i>Macrobrachium yui</i> at a fixed site on a tributary of the Xuang River in northern Laos. Throughout the monitoring period, ...
Developing a self-sufficient Philippine milkfish industry through value chain analysis
(Elsevier, 2021-02-15)
The Philippine milkfish industry has been dependent on the importation of juveniles for grow-out ever since the decline of wild fry catch and with inadequate supply from local hatcheries. However, self-sufficiency is ...
Optimum stocking density and feeding level for laboratory‐reared early‐stage silver therapon (Leiopotherapon plumbeus) larvae
(Wiley, 2020-10-23)
Growth, survival and feeding of early‐stage silver therapon Leiopotherapon plumbeus larvae reared at different stocking densities and feeding levels were examined. Larvae (8 days post hatch (dph); 0.38–0.50 mg body weight ...
Comparative transcriptome profiling of heat stress response of the mangrove crab Scylla serrata across sites of varying climate profiles
(BioMed Central, 2021)
<b>Background:</b> The fishery and aquaculture of the widely distributed mangrove crab Scylla serrata is a steadily growing, high-value, global industry. Climate change poses a risk to this industry as temperature elevations ...
Dietary taurine in practical diet for two sizes of snubnose silver pompano, Trachinotus blochii
(Wiley, 2021-09-27)
Two separate feeding experiments determined taurine requirement levels in diets for growth of two sizes of snubnose silver pompano. The first experiment was conducted for 14 weeks using pompano with average weight of 0.4 ...
Performance, digestibility efficiencies, gut and liver morphologies of snub nose pompano Trachinotus blochii fed spray‐dried haemoglobin meal as protein substitute for fishmeal
(Wiley, 2021-07-12)
Spray-dried haemoglobin meal, a by-product and derivative of the swine processing industry, is formed when haemoglobin is separated hygienically from pig's blood. A 120-days feeding trial using snub nose pompano Trachinotus ...
