Daily rates of ingestion on rotifers and Artemia nauplii by laboratory-reared grouper larvae of Epinephelus suillus
(San Carlos Publications, University of San Carlos, 1994)
The amount of rotifers and Artemia nauplii consumed daily by the grouper Epinephelus suillus larvae was determined through examination of gut contents. The larvae (2.6 mm TL) were initially fed rotifers on day 2 and newly ...
Preliminary studies on the rearing of the red-spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides larvae using copepod nauplii as initial food
(University of the Philippines in the Visayas, 1996)
One day old red-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) larvae from SEAFDEC, Iloilo, were packed at 3.300 ind/L and transported to Dagupan, Pangasinan for larval rearing. Transport time was about 10 hours. More than 90% of ...
Use of copepod nauplii during early feeding stage of grouper Epinephelus coioides
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1999)
Newly-hatched Epinephelus coioides larvae were stocked in five 5-ton tanks at an initial density of 25, 000 ind/tank. Copepod nauplii were propagated in four of these tanks by inoculating various densities (20 to 80 ind/l) ...
Leaf meals as protein sources in diets for milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal)
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)
The protencial of partial replacement of fish meal protein with protein indigenous leaf meals in practical diets for milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal) was studied. Five isocaloric (375 kcal/100 g diet), isonitrogenous ...
Growth response and carcass composition of red tilapia fry fed diets with varying protein levels and protein to energy ratios
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1991)
An 8-week feeding experiment was conducted with red tilapia (Oreochromis ) fry of 0.160 plus or minus 0.035 g initial weight. Twelve diets of 4 protein levels (25, 30, 35 and 40%) and 3 protein to energy (P/E) ratios (111, ...
Enrichment of live food with essential fatty acids and vitamin C: effects on milkfish (Chanos chanos) larval performance
(Elsevier, 1998)
The effects of essential fatty acids (EFA) and vitamin C-enriched live food on growth, survival, resistance to salinity stress and incidence of deformity in milkfish larvae reared in tanks were investigated. Larvae were ...
Sulphur amino acid requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer
(John Wiley and Sons, 1999)
The dietary requirement of juvenile Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer for total sulphur amino acids was studied. Fish (average initial weight of 2.59 plus or minus 0.08 g) were reared in twelve 500 L fibreglass tanks provided ...
Requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids
(American Society for Nutrition, 1993)
The dietary requirements of juvenile milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) for essential amino acids were determined in a series of experiments. The fish (< or = 8.0 g) were reared in fiber glass tanks provided with flow-through ...
Growth, survival and feed conversion of Nile tilapia fingerlings fed diets containing Bayo-n-ox, a commercial growth promoter
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 1991)
A feeding experiment was conducted to determine the effect of a commercial growth promoter, Bayo-n-ox, on Nile tilapia fingerlings (mean initial weight 3.6 g). After 6 weeks, the weight gain of fish given 25 mg Bayo-n-ox/kg ...
Growth of juvenile Asian seabass, Lates calcarifer, fed varying carbohydrate and lipid levels
(Elsevier, 1997)
Growth performance of juvenile seabass (initial mean body weight, 0.90 ± 0.04 g) fed varying carbohydrate and lipid levels were determined using practical diets in a 2 × 3 factorial experiment. Two carbohydrate levels (15 ...
