Lipids and essential fatty acids in the nutrition of Penaeus monodon larvae
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Total lipid levels and fatty acid distribution during larval development of Penaeus monodon were determined. Larvae were cultured utilizing standard rearing procedures and feeding schemes adopted by the Crustacean Hatchery ... -
The biology of Penaeus monodon in the capture fisheries off orissa coast, India in the context of occurrence of natural broodstock
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The tiger prawn of India, Penaeus monodon Fabricius has a differential distribution in the two coasts of India. Density is high in the northeastern part of the Bay of Bengal gradually declining towards the mid-east and ... -
Carbohydrate requirements of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Penaeus monodon juveniles (initial mean weight=0.62 g) were fed semi-purified diets containing 10, 20 and 30% trehalose, sucrose or glucose for eight weeks. Results showed that shrimps fed 20% trehalose gave the highest ... -
Survival, growth and production of white shrimp Penaeus indicus in brackishwater ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)This study was conducted in 4 one-ha ponds, 70-100 cm deep and 2 two-ha ponds, 40-70 cm deep to evaluate the survival, growth and production of white shrimp, Penaeus indicus stocked at 50,000/ha and cultured within a period ... -
Staggered harvesting as a method of increasing prawn production with supplemental feeding
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Prawns, like any other animals, exhibit dissimilarities in growth rates. As they grow, a wide range of body weight distribution from the same population is observed. Staggered harvesting method is commonly practised in ... -
The tolerance of Penaeus monodon eggs and larvae to fungicides against Lagenidium sp. and Haliphthoros philippinensis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The in vivo effect of mycostatic levels of fungicides against the fungi Lagenidium sp. and Haliphthoros sp. were tested on Penaeus monodon eggs and larvae. Hatching rate and survival of nauplii, zoeae, myses and postlarvae ... -
Diseases, parasites, commensals and fouling of commercial Penaeid prawns of the Portonovo coast of South India
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)There are very few reports on the diseases, parasites, commensals and fouling in penaeid prawns. During the regular collection of marine and estuarine prawns in the east coast of India, a number were found to be infested ... -
Morphometric studies on three Penaeid shrimps, Penaeus japonicus, P. vannamei and P. marginatus in Hawaii
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Penaeus japonicus, P. vannamei and P. marginatus cultured at the Oceanic Institute in Hawaii, were sampled and measured. The shrimps sampled ranged from 1 to 15 g in body weight. The measurements included carapace length ... -
Ruppia maritima and Najas graminea as natural foods for Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Ruppia maritima (kusay-kusay, Hiligaynon) and Najas graminea (digman, Hiligaynon) are macrophytes growing in local brackishwater ponds believed to provide food and shelter to prawns and fishes. Their effect on growth and ... -
Observations on the nauplii production from wild, cultivated and mixed populations of the blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris)
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Due to low nauplii production from cultivated broodstock and to minimize dependence on wild stock, an experiment was run in which four treatments, consisting of combinations of 400 adult blue shrimp (Penaeus stylirostris) ... -
Effects of diet on reproductive performance of ablated Penaeus monodon broodstock
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Four practical diets were compared for their effects upon ovarian maturation and spawning of ablated Penaeus monodon broodstock. Diets were formulated based upon the fatty acid profile of wild P. monodon. Diets 1 and 3 ... -
Growth and survival of Penaeus monodon postlarvae with different feeding regimes and stocking densities in earthen brackishwater nursery ponds
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)The effect of different stocking densities (50, 100 and 150/m2) and two feeding regimes (natural food, consisting mainly of lablab, and natural food plus artificial diet) on the growth and survival of Penaeus monodon ... -
Larval growth and survival optima for four species of penaeids from Australia, as indicated by their distribution and abundance in the field
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Prawn catches from tropical northern Australia are dominated by four species of prawns: Penaeus merguiensis, P. semisulcatus, P. esculentus and P. latisulcatus. Three of the species (P. merguiensis, P. semisulcatus and P. ... -
Growth and productivity of juvenile banana prawns, Penaeus merguiensis in natural and laboratory systems
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Growth and survival of Penaeus merguiensis juveniles were measured over four years in the Norman River estuary, south-eastern Gulf of Carpentaria. Growth in carapace length for the first 8-9 weeks after settlement was ... -
Effect of dietary fatty acids on the fatty acid composition of Penaeus monodon juveniles
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Six purified diets containing either pollack liver oil or a combination of dietary fatty acids (18:1ω9, 18:3ω3, 20:5ω3) at 5% level and a control (no lipid) were assessed for their influence on the fatty acid composition ... -
Study on the larval rearing of Penaeus merguiensis
(Aquaculture Department, Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, 1985)Nursing postlarvae of Penaeus merguiensis in the same tank as rearing always results in low survival rates, around 30%. One reason is that stocking density for P1 is too high for postlarvae grown to P20 size. Another reason ... -
