Larviculture of milkfish (Chanos chanos) in outdoor tanks
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
In the past, larviculture of milkfish depended entirely on the use of rotifers and brine shrimp nauplii and rearing trials were done under roofed facilities. Since the dietary value of live food varies according to culture ...
Review of SEAFDEC/AQD finfish seed production research
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Research on seed production of several foodfishes has been a continuing activity of SEAFDEC/AQD since 1976. Fry and juvenile production methods of these fish commodities are in various stages of advancement. For instance, ...
Growth and survival of milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae reared on artificial diets
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
A preliminary feeding experiment was conducted to determine growth and survival of milkfish larvae reared on various feeding regimes involving the use of artificial diets. Two larval diets (Feed A and Feed B) containing ...
Effects of different fat sources on the egg quality of grouper, Epinephelus suillus
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The effect of different fat sources on the egg quality of grouper, Epinephelus suillus eggs was evaluated. Fish in three tanks, each containing 3 females and 1 male, were fed various types of feeds namely: trash fish ...
Feeding habits of hatchery-reared grouper, Epinephelus suillus larvae
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The feeding habits of hatchery-reared Epinephelus suillus larvae were determined by examining their gut contents. The larvae (2.6 mm TL) were initially fed rotifers on day 2 and newly-hatched Artemia nauplii on day 21 (9.1 ...
Oral administrations of chemotherapeutics via the bioencapsulation technique: A tool for therapeutic treatment in larviculture
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The application of the bioencapsulation technique as a tool for curative treatment in fish larvae was investigated. Antibacterials, trimethoprim (TMP) and sulphamethoxazole (SMX), incorporated in an oil emulsion (SELCO, ...
The commercial production of green grouper fingerlings, Epinephelus suillus, from wild caught fry - an industry experience
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Wild-caught fry of the green groupers, Epinephelus malabaricus and E. suillus ranging in standard lengths (SL) from 1.5 to 3.0 cm were bought from different fry dealers all over the Philippines. These were reared from 1.0 ...
Changes in lipid and fatty acid content during early larval development of milkfish (Chanos chanos): influence of broodstock diet
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The influence of amount and type of lipid given to milkfish broodstock by developing larvae was investigated by feeding broodstock commercial diets that differed in lipid content and composition. The two commercial feeds ...
