A guide to induced spawning and larval rearing of milkfish Chanos chanos (Forsskal)
Share
Abstract
The techniques for the artificial propagation of milkfish (Chanos chanos ) developed at SEAFDEC are presented. These include: 1) capture and transport of spawners; 2) determination of sex and weight and maturity of fish; 3) induced spawning (preparation of injection, males, females); 4) fertilization and incubation; 5) larval rearing; and 6) mass production of larval food.
