[ 1 ] - Production of tropical oyster seed in hatchery

Oysters have been collected from wild since long time ago for human consumption. Recent development in aquaculture has allows the production of its seed in hatchery. Factors favoring the oyster production are stocking density, water quality and the availability of live food. These factors can increase the growth and survival of the oyster. Fundamental knowledge on life cycle and biology of oyst...

[ 2 ] - 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...

[ 3 ] - Significance of water flow rate and period of nursing on the growth of juvenile seahorse, Hippocampus barbouri (Jordan and Richardson, 1908)

Drastic decline of seahorse population has been observed in the past decade. Evident shows that it is due to the over exploitation of this organism to fulfill demand for aquarium trades and Traditional Chinese Medicine industry (TCM). Considering this condition, seahorse farming is highly justified to ensure this species will not go extinct. In this study, effects of nursing period and water fl...

[ 4 ] - Reproductive performance of seahorse, Hippocampus barbouri (Jordan and Richardson 1908) in control condition

Hippocampus barbouri is one of the seahorse species found in shallow water of Malaysia. It is used as known as a global trade species in ornamental fish industry. To date, there is no documented report on seahorse aquaculture especially for H. barbouri in Malaysia even in Southeast Asia region. Seahorse aquaculture should be considered as an alternative source of seahorses to reduce the pressur...
