Adult Artemia as food for juvenile prawns
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1987)Feeding experiments on three commercially important shrimps Penaues indicus, Metapenaeus dobsoni and M. monoceros were carried out using adult Artemia as feed. Good growth and food conversion efficiencies were recorded at ... -
Conversion Efficiency in the Shrimp, Metapenaeus Monoceros (Fabricius), Fed on Decomposed Mangrove Leaves
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Feeding experiments were carried out with Metapenaeus monoceros using mangrove leaves at different stages of decomposition, in combination with rice bran. Maximum conversion efficiency was found in shrimps fed completely ... -
Decapsulated Brine Shrimp Cysts - An Ideal feed for Shrimps in Aquaculture
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1980)Feeding experiments have been carried out with Metapenaeus monoceros using different stages of Artemia salina as feed. The importance of using decapsulated cysts to obtain greater food conversion efficiency has been indicated -
Evaluation of different feeds for optimal growth and survival of parthenogenetic brine shrimp, Artemia
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 1987)Four types of food, each at 5 levels were evaluated for optimal growth and survival of Artemia larvae (1-4 d and 4-8 d), under laboratory conditions. The food types used were rice bran and 3 species of algae (Porphyra ... -
Feeding Efficiency of Penaeus Indicus and Metapenaeus Dobsoni in different Experimental Substrata
(Indian Association for Limnology and Oceanography, 1980)Preying efficiency in the substrata of different concentrations of mud sand, silt and clay and also in mud from natural habitat was examined with respect to Penaeus indicus and Metapenaeus dobsoni in order to understand ... -
Formulation of cheaper artificial feeds for shrimp culture: preliminary biochemical, physical and biological evaluation
(Elsevier, 1979)A compound shrimp diet was prepared making use of the locally available natural food stuffs, slaughter house products and factory by-products. The ingredients, viz: beef liver (discarded for human use on veterinary grounds), ... -
Observations on feeding behaviour and survival rates in the estuarine calanoid copepods Acartia spinicauda and Heliodiaptomus cinctus (Crustacea: Copepoda: Calanoida)
(Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, New Delhi, 1999)Experiments were conducted on the calanoid copepods, Acartia spinicauda (Acartiidae) and Heliodiaptomus cinctus (Diaptomidae) in order to determine food preference and survival rates respectively. Adults of A. spinicauda ... -
Parthenogenetic reproduction of Diaphanosoma celebensis (Crustacea: Cladocera). Effect of algae and algal density on survival, growth, life span and neonate production
(Springer, 1999)The cladoceran Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin is reported on for the first time from Indian waters (Mandovi Estuary, Goa). Amictic females were maintained in the laboratory (temperature 24 plus or minus 1 degrees C and ...
