Majalaya carp is a freshwater fish that has important economic value and widespread in Indonesia. Goldfish the most cultivated because it many advantages both physiologically genetically. Several factors of assessment selection superior brood stock can be considered cultivation goldfish cultivators are; ideal body weight, movement, physical deformities, scales, base tail. All these help decisio...

Background: The objective of the present study was to examine the effect of Ovaprim dosage on the latency period, relative number of ovulated eggs, fertilization, hatching, and survival rates of the siban fish, Cyclocheilichthys apogon. Methods: Three dosages of Ovaprim were tested in this study, namely 0.3 ml kg-1 of broodfish body weight, 0.5 ml kg-1 body weight, and 0.7 ml kg-1 body weight, ...

This study was designed to evaluate the effects of astaxanthin in broodfish diets on reproductive performance, egg quality and larvae parameters clownfish (Amphirion ocellaris). Five treatments were tested with 5 levels (Carophyll Pink 10% CWS) 0, 50, 100, 150 200 mg/kg added feed. Each treatment repeated triplicate supplemental feeding trials arranged for 13 months. The results showed that the...

Over the last century the reproduction of sturgeon has been intensively studied par Russian scientists who established a technology for the ranching of alevins which included artificial fertilization of gametes taken from wild broodfish and larvae rearing. More recently, since 1970, major contributions originated from teams in the USA, the EU, Japan and Iran. A rather good knowledge of the repr...

An experiment was conducted to observe growth performance and survival of the larvae produced from the brood fish of Ompok pabda treated with 4 dietary levels of vitamin E for 90 days viz. 0 (served as control), 50, 100 and 150mg vitamin E/kg feed under 4 treatments i.e. treatment T1, T2, T3 and T4. After the feeding trials, the brood fish were induced to breed with equal dose of PG extract i.e...

Potential variation in reproductive performance as young broodfish among four selectively bred strains of channel catfish was evaluated by comparing profiles of plasma estradiol, testosterone, and vitellogenin, and activities of cathepsin D, L, and B in follicle-enclosed oocytes during vitellogenesis in 2to 3-yr-old females. No differences among the four strains were detected for any of the par...

Production traits such as growth, feed efficiency, survival, and fillet yield are economically important traits and an improvement in one or more of these traits will benefit the U.S. catfish farming industry. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) 103 line of channel catfish was developed jointly between the USDA Agricultural Research Service (ARS) Catfish Genetics Research Unit, Stoneville...
