Aquaculture of Marine Fish in Inland Low Salinity Well Water: Potassium Is Not the Only Limiting Element
Inland saline groundwater is abundant in various areas of the world but is not suitable for traditional agriculture irrigation and is also not suitable for marine aquaculture mainly because of potassium deficiencies. In the present work, we used marbled spinefoot rabbitfish Siganus rivulatus, as a model organism to investigate whether varying levels of aqueous K affect survival and growth, and ...
متن کاملPredicting future thermal habitat suitability of competing native and invasive fish species: from metabolic scope to oceanographic modelling
Global increase in sea temperatures has been suggested to facilitate the incoming and spread of tropical invaders. The increasing success of these species may be related to their higher physiological performance compared with indigenous ones. Here, we determined the effect of temperature on the aerobic metabolic scope (MS) of two herbivorous fish species that occupy a similar ecological niche i...
متن کاملAdaptation in the optical properties of the crystalline lens in the eyes of the Lessepsian migrant Siganus rivulatus.
Vision is an important source of information for many animals. The crystalline lens plays a central role in the visual pathway and hence the ecology of fishes. In this study, we tested whether the different light regimes in the Mediterranean and Red Seas have an effect on the optical properties of the lenses in the rivulated rabbitfish, Siganus rivulatus. This species has migrated through the S...
متن کاملSeasonal changes in phosphorus content of fish tissue as they relate to diets of renal patients.
OBJECTIVE To investigate seasonal variations in tissue phosphorus (P) levels, P to protein ratio, and P to omega-3 fatty acid (ω3-FA) ratio in 2 species of fish that are commonly consumed in Lebanon. We aim to determine suitability for dietary management of renal patients. DESIGN AND SETTING Siganus rivulatus (rabbitfish) and Diplodus sargus (white seabream) were caught in traps off the coast...
متن کاملEffect of different light regimes on the maturational progress of the whitespotted rabbitfish (Siganus sutor)
In this study, the effects of different light regimes on the reproductive activity of a typical Indo- Pacific coral reef rabbitfish, Siganus sutor, were evaluated. Forty- five adult fish were exposed to nine different photoperiod (8L: 16D, 12L: 12D, 16L: 8D) and light intensity (1000, 2000, 3000 lux) combinations with three replicates and five other fishes reared under indoor light condition (C...
