The effects of n-3 highly unsaturated fatty acids (n-3 HUFA) were studied on Beluga (Huso huso) fish larvae by feeding fish larvae with live food  enriched with 4 different oils (ICES 30/4, tuna eye oil, flaxseed oil and linseed oil) containing different levels of n-3 HUFA including 27.19, 20.33, 12.71 and 0.39 mg g-1 dry weight of oil, respectively. Fish larvae weighing 30.00±2.00 mg were rand...

The larval community of coral reef fishes in the Red Sea was studied in coastal and offshore sites to determine the effects of the exposure to waves and currents and the distance from the shore in structuring the larval fish community. Plankton sampling from inshore and offshore sites and the exposed and sheltered sides of the reefs resulted in the collection of 2048 larvae representing 49 diff...

fish oil is the important fat source in fish nutrition. high demand for fish oil and low global supply arise a need of alternative oils in fish culture. plant oils are a good candidate in this case. the aim of the present study was to compare the efficacy of fish oil and linseed oil on growth and stress resistance of tiger barb ( puntius tetrazona ) larvae. artemia nauplii were enriched by 2.5,...

the orange-red spectrum of  the skin of  electric yellow (labidochromis caeruleus) is  one  of  the  idealistic and  necessary  schemas sought  by  aquarists  and commercial producers. in this study, the effect of live foods meal on the skin coloration of juvenile electric yellow was examined. 270 fish with an average living body weight was 0.42 ± 0.11 g, and average total length was 3.3 ± 0.35...

The study and research of abundance and diversity variation of fish larva (Ichthyoplankton stages) was done in Gowatr Bay during autumn 2006 - summer 2007. Five stations were selected for sampling, and Bongo-Net with 300µ mesh size was towing from bottom to surface. During of survey, totally 531 larvae belong to 11 families were collected and identified. The mean abundance estimated 12.17 larva...

The present study was performed to determine the infection status of anisakid larvae in marine fish collected from 3 sea areas of the Republic of Korea. Total 86 marine fish (8 species) collected from the East Sea (Goseong-gun, Gangwon-do), 171 fish (10 species) from the South Sea (Sacheon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do), and 92 fish (7 species) from the Yellow Sea (Incheon Metropolitan City) were examin...

this study examined the effects of two bacteria (bacillu subtilis bp6 and lactobacillus plantarum lp3) on survival, growth and digestive tract microflora of achanthopagrus latus larvae with different delivery methods. for each bacterium was considered three treatments with different delivery methods. in first treatment, fish larvae were exposed to each bacterium through feeding them with bacter...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES An efficient larvivorous fish must show a predilection for mosquito larvae in the presence of alternative preys. This study compares the feeding capacity and preference of Aphyosemion gularis exposed to different kinds of aquatic macroinvertebrates. METHODS Various prey organisms such as Anopheles larvae and pupae, Culex larvae, chironomid larvae and ostracods were eit...
