The effect of different levels of vitamins premix in the diet of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) fingerlings
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The present study was conducted to determine the growth and survival of African catfish (Clarias gariepinus) fingerlings fed diets with various levels of vitamin premix. The fingerlings (mean weight, 1.55 to 2.12 g) were ...
Effects of dietary carbohydrate, lipid and energy on the growth, feed efficiency, and tissue composition of bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) fry
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The utilization of dietary carbohydrate and lipid as energy sources for bighead carp (Aristichthys nobilis) fry and various protein:energy ratios were investigated in a 2x3x3 factorial feeding experiment. Semi-purified ...
Nutritional requirements of commercially important shrimps in the tropics
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The culture of tropical shrimps has gained greater economic importance particularly among Southeast Asian countries. As shrimp fanning moves from low-input, low-technology operation to the intensive and even highly intensive ...

(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 ...
Future considerations in fish nutrition research
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Considerable progress has been made In the field of fish nutrition during the past two decades. Nutritional data for some species such as trout, salmon, channel catfish, and common carp are well established and efficient ...
Reproductive performance of captive Penaeus monodon fed various sources of carotenoids
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Three groups of pond-reared Penaeus monodon broodstock were fed formulated diet in combination with carotenoid-containing natural food: mussel + shrimp broodstock pellet (MBP), crab + BP (CBP), and Artemia + BP (ABP). After ...
Farming of all-male java tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus) at two stocking densities in cages in a brackishwater pond
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
A study was conducted to determine the growth, survival, and yield of allmale Oreochromis mossambicus in cages at two stocking densities: 50 fish/m2 (Treatment I) and 100 fish/m2 (Treatment II) in a brackishwater pond. The ...
Weaning of the Asian catfish, Clarias macrocephalus Gunther, larvae to formulated dry diet
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Two feeding trials lasting 10 days each were conducted to determine the weaning time in the Asian catfish, Clarias macrocephalus, larvae to dry diet feeding. Three-day-old catfish larvae were fed newly-hatched Artemia ...
Kappaphycus and Gracilariopsis meal as binders for diets of tiger shrimp
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Two locally grown seaweeds, Kappaphycus alvarezii and Gracilaria heteroclada, were tested as binders in diets for shrimp juveniles to minimize the use of wheat flour, a common binder. The seaweeds were washed, dried, ground, ...
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 ...
