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 ...
A preliminary study on the effect of hypoxia on carotenoid metabolism in black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon Fabricius
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
The pigmentation of black tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon is due to astaxanthin, astaxanthin monoester, and astaxanthin diester. These carotenoids are biosynthesized from beta-carotene or zeaxanthin. Biosynthesis is postulated ...
In vitro digestibility of locally available feedstuffs for white shrimp Penaeus indicus
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
An in vitro method of determining protein digestibility was modified for application in white shrimps. The protein digestibility of 21 locally available feedstuffs were determined. Vitamin-free casein was used as reference ...
Development of artificial diets for milkfish (Chanos chanos) larvae
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
This study aims to develop nutritionally balanced and cost-effective artificial diets for milkfish larvae. Two larval diets (Feed A and Feed B) were formulated and prepared to contain 45% protein and 10% lipid. Several ...
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 ...
Tilapia breeding and seed production for brackishwater culture in the Philippines
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Tilapias are important foodfishes in the Philippines second only to milkfish. While farming of tilapias in freshwater ponds and cages is already established, there is a need for wider application of the available technologies ...
Mass larval rearing technology of marine finfish in Japan
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
With economic development and increased demand for high price fish, industrial scale marine finfish culture in Japan was started in 1960-1965 for yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata. Sustainable supply of wild juvenile and ...
Successful use of cryopreserved oyster trocophores as a live first feed larval marine fish and invertebrates
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Trochophore-stage larvae of the Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas were cryopreserved in bulk and stored in liquid nitrogen for periods up to two years before thawing and feeding to a variety of warmwater and coldwater larval ...
Correlations of oocyte diameter with some morphometric characters in the nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus L.
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
A study was conducted to determine the correlation of oocyte diameter with some morphometric characters in a Philippine strain of Oreochromis niloticus L. One hundred and thirty-five 7- to 9-month old sexually mature female ...
Influence of LHRHa and methyltestosterone on milt production of sea bass Lates calcarifer (Bloch)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1996)
Milt volume, sperm density, and number of spermatozoa were determined to quantify milt production of mature sea bass after a single injection of LHRHa [(D-Ala6,Pro9-N-ethylamiide)LHRH] in saline solution and 17α-methyltestosterone ...
