Breeding and culture of the polychaete, Marphysa mossambica, as feed for the mud crab
Alava, Veronica R.; Biñas, Joseph B.; Mandario, Mary Anne (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)Marine worms (Annelida: Polychaeta) are considered as important food for crustacean broodstock because they contain hormones and correct balance of essential nutrients for reproduction. Marphysa mossambica (Peters, 1854) ... -
Evaluation of the bioremediation capacity of the polychaete, Marphysa mossambica (Peters, 1854) in pond sediments
Mandario, Mary Anne ; Alava, Veronica R.; Anasco, Nathaniel C. (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)Marphysa mossambica is commonly found in brackishwater ponds and is an important natural food for cultured stocks particularly mud crabs. To understand the burrowing activity of polychaete, survival and capacity to ... -
Growth, survival, proximate and fatty acid composition of sandworm Perinereis quatrefagesi (Grube, 1878) fed variable feed types
Biñas, Joseph B.; Alava, Veronica R.; Campos, Wilfredo L. (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)Sandworm Perinereis quatrefagesi has been used as feed for crustacean broodstock due to its reproductive-enhancing properties particularly protein and highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs). Juvenile sandworms collected ... -
Nursery culture of mud crab Scylla serrata fed diets supplemented with trytophan at two stocking densities
Alava, Veronica R.; Lucero, Marjorie Aijee; Sumile, Jony D.; Parado-Estepa, Fe D. (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)Cannibalism has been recognized as one of the major problems in crab culture. The use of dietary tryptophan (TRP) that has been reported to reduce cannibalism in crabs under laboratory conditions was verified in pond nursery ... -
Nursery culture of mud crab Scylla serrata using different feeding rates
Alava, Veronica R.; Sumile, Jony D.; Parado-Estepa, Fe D. (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)The effect of different feeding rates on the production and profitability of Phases 1 and 2 (3-week each) nursery culture of hatchery-produced crab Scylla serrata was determined. Minced mussel meat and formulated diet (at ... -
Nursery culture of mud crab, Scylla serrata, using different ratios of natural food to formulated feed
Alava, Veronica R.; Sumile, Jony D.; Parado-Estepa, Fe D. (Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 2017)The effect of feeding different ratios of natural food to formulated feed on the production and profitability of Phases 1 and 2 of nursery culture (3 weeks per phase) of hatchery-produced crab Scylla serrata was investigated. ...
