Disease investigation of transported Chanos chanos stocked in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)Milkfish,Chanos chanos fingerlings transported by boat (petuya) for seven to eight hours were observed for stress-inducing factors during transport, daily for 10 days after stocking in pens in Laguna Lake, Philippines. ... -
Antibiotic uptake of the giant freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii by the osmotic infiltration technique
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)Erythromycin and oxytetracycline uptake by the giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii , was evaluated by the two-step osmotic infiltration technique. Test prawns were immersed in 7.5% NaCl conditioning (hyperosmotic) ... -
The pathogenicity of bacteria associated with transport-stressed Chanos chanos fingerlings
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)Two isolates of Aeromonas hydrophila biovar hydrophila and two isolates of Pseudomonas-like bacteria cultured from milkfish, Chanos chanos, fingerlings stocked in Laguna Lake(Philippines) pens after transport were tested ... -
Morphological development of the swimming and feeding apparatus in larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus.
(1986)The development of body parts for swimming and feeding in Siganus guttatus larvae was studied in samples reared in the laboratory at temperatures of 27.3-30 degree C. From the observations, the larval stage of S. guttatus ... -
Acetes as prime food for Penaeus monodon larvae
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)This paper presents research attempts to develop a suitable artificial diet for shrimp larvae with locally-available materials. Larval rearing experiments using finely ground Acetes tissues conducted under various climatic ... -
Induced spawning and larval rearing of grouper (Epinephelus salmoides Maxwell)
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)Broodfish of grouper (Epinephelus salmoides ) were induced to spawn by hormonal induction. The hormones used for this experiment were HCG + pituitary gland (PG) and LRH-a. The results showed that at dosages of 500 IU HCG ... -
Feeding habits of larval rabbitfish, Siganus guttatus in the laboratory
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)The feeding habits of Siganus guttatus larvae were determined in laboratory rearing studies at 23.8-30.3 degree C by examination of digestive tract contents of larvae given rotifers and/or brine shrimp. Larvae were initially ... -
Socio-economics of oyster and mussel farming in Western Visayas, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)Among the economically important bivalves, the slipper oyster (Crassostrea iredalei) and green mussel (Perna viridis) are predominantly being farmed in the Philippines. Oyster and mussel farms in the Western Visayas region ... -
Bacterial depuration of grossly-contaminated oysters, Crassostrea iredalei.
(1986)Oysters (Crassostrea iredalei ) from a commercial growing area in Capiz, Iloilo, Philippines, were purchased from the Iloilo City Central Market and used in a depuration trial within 24 hours of collection. Total coliform ... -
Effects of coconut milk and brown sugar on crude toxins from mussels exposed to Pyrodinium bahamense var. compressa
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)During a red tide episode caused by Pyrodinium bahamense var. compressa in Western Samar, Philippines in 1983, those who were taken ill after ingesting the green mussel, Perna viridis , resorted to drinking coconut milk ... -
The larval and juvenile fish community in Pandan Bay, Panay Island, Philippines
(Ichthyological Society of Japan, 1986)Long-term (1975-1977) collections of larval and juvelnile fish were made from 1) onshore, a sandy beach flanked by a coral terrace and a river mouth, and 2) 500m offshore in 30 m deep water in Pandan Bay. About 70 species ... -
Growth and survival of Nile tilapia fingerlings in net cages without supplemental feed in Laguna Lake, Philippines
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)Oreochromis niloticus fingerlings were stocked at densities of 50, 100, 150 and 200 fish/m super(2) in fixed net cages in Laguna Lake, Philippines. These were reared without supplemental feed on 1 April-30 July 1980, 5 ... -
Osmoregulation in Penaeus monodon: Effects of molting and external salinity
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)The effect of molting on osmotic, chloride, calcium and total protein concentrations in the hemolymph of the shrimp Penaeus monodon was investigated. Regardless of medium salinity, tissue water as well as osmotic and ... -
Acceptability of five species of freshwater algae to tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fry
(International Development Research Centre, 1985)Unialgal cultures of Oscillatoria quadripunctulata, Chroococcus dispersus, Navicula notha, Euglena elongata, and Chlorella ellipsoidea were fed to tilapia fry for 30 days. Mean weights and survival rates of the fry were ... -
Combinations of dietary fat sources in dry diets for Chanos chanos fingerlings
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)A study was conducted to determine the effects of 1:1 ratio of several dietary fat sources added in semipurified diets at 10% level on milkfish fingerlings. Results showed that the cod liver oil + coconut oil diet promoted ... -
Egg size and larval size among teleosts: implications to survival potential
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1986)A survey of the early life history characteristics of 135 teleost fishes from freshwater, marine, tropical, temperate and boreal habitats show the influence of egg size and larval size on survival potential. Marine species ... -
Problems associated with hormonal induction of gonad development in milkfish (Chanos chanos)
(Hong Kong University Press, 1985)Recent developments in milkfish breeeding include succesful induced spawning of wild1,2 and captive3-5 fish and spontaneous spawning of broodstock.6 Gravid spawners, however, are available ... -
Milkfish farming in the Philippines
(The Oceanic Institute; Tungkang Marine Laboratory, 1985)A detailed account is given of milkfish farming procedures generally practised in the Philippines. The following phases are identified: 1) collection and/or procurement of seed for fry phase; 2) fry rearing; 3) culture and ... -
Financial and economic analysis of grow-out tilapia cage farming in Laguna de Bay, Philippines
(Philippine Council for Agriculture Resources Research and Development; Manila, Philippines: International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management, 1985)A survey of grow-out tilapia cage farming in Laguna de Bay, Philippines was conducted in two towns in Rizal Province. the resulting analyses indicate low financial performance and poor economic viability of grow-out tilapia ... -
