Effect of using periphyton substrate (Bamboo stems) on water quality, phytoplankton, zooplankton, periphyton and growth performance for tilapia, mullet and catfish in earthen ponds
Type: Journal Article
This experiment shows that the bamboo substrate improved water quality, survival rate and total production of fish.
Algal bioproducts derived from suspended solids in intensive land-based aquaculture
Type: Journal Article
Land-based aquaculture produces suspended solids in culture pond and settlement pond waters that could be harvested as a bioresource. The first aim of this study is to quantify, characterise, and subsequently harvest the ...
Effect of the filter-feeder silver carp on the water quality of fertilized earthen ponds and Nile tilapia production
Type: Journal Article
The objective of this study is to test the effect of silver carp on water quality and tilapia yield.
Cell wall disruption: An effective strategy to improve the nutritive quality of microalgae in African catfish (Clarias gariepinus)
Type: Journal Article
The rigid cell walls of microalgae may hinder their utilization in fish feeds. The current experiment assessed the correlation between the accessibility of microalgae nutri- ents and their in vivo digestibility in African ...
The role of Spirulina platensis (Arthrospira platensis) in growth and immunity of Nile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and its resistance to bacterial infection
Type: Journal Article
The current study was designed to optimize the dietary levels of Spirulina platensis in Oreochromis niloticus; this was tested via graded levels. Six isonitrogenous and isocaloric rations containing graded levels of dried ...
Enhancement of grazing gastropod populations as a coral reef restoration tool: predation effects and related applied implications
Type: Journal Article
In this study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy of adding T. niloticus to control epilithic algal biomass and enhance coral recruitment on artificial substrata at a heavily fished reef in northwestern Philippines. Our ...
Effect of freshwater toxic and non toxic cyanobacteria, (Microcystis aeruginosa) strains on some biochemical parameters of Oreochromis niloticus
Type: Journal Article
This study was planned to determine the grazing rate of O. niloticus from both toxic and non toxic strains of Microcystis aeruginosa with its effect on fish health through study of some clinical signs, hematological and ...
