Effects of salinity, stocking density and feeding in Macrobrachium pantanalense larviculture

Stocking Density and Supplemental Feeding

Pond carrying capacity is largely determined by management practices. Earlier work on semiintensive culture of tilapia using manure or inorganic fertilizers indicated that carrying capacity might reach 2,000 to 3,000 kg/ha (Diana et al. 1991a, b; KnudHansen et al. 1991). As stocking density is increased in fertilized ponds, carrying capacity remains largely the same and density-dependent growth...

Effects of larval stocking density and feeding ratio on larval rearing of giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii

Effect of stocking density and salinity on the growth and survival of golden Anabas fry

Stocking density and salinity influence on the growth and survival of golden Anabas fry were studied. Experiments were carried out at Hatchery Unit, Institute of Bioscience, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Serdang Selangor, Malaysia. Growth parameters were measured once a month. While survival was monitored daily throughout the experimental period. Water quality such as temperature, dissolved oxygen...

Effects of stocking density on growth performance and survival of three male morphotypes in all-male culture of Macrobrachium rosenbergii (De Man)

A study was conducted to appraise the effect of different stocking densities on three male morphotypes named blue claw (BC), orange claw (OC) and small male (SM) at harvest  in all-male culture and to assess the growth performance of  BC, OC and SM in each isolated culture. Trials involving three stocking densities of all-male prawn viz., 20, 30 and 40 juvenile m-2 were carried out in...
