Consequences of Decreased Water Temperature Caused by Aerator-Induced Evaporation on Growth of Pacific White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei in Ponds 

Abdelrahman, Hisham A. (2016-07-25)
Two studies were performed related to water temperature in aquaculture ponds. The first study evaluated the influence of aeration on evaporation and water temperature in ponds, and compared the effects of daytime and ...

Effects of pre- and probiotics on pond production, growth and disease susceptibility of channel catfish Ictalurus punctatus and Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus 

Addo, Samuel (2013-12-04)
Disease outbreaks have become a major challenge to the profitable culture of fish and shellfish as aquaculture operations intensify. Globally, total annual losses from disease outbreaks have reached billions of United ...

Evaluation of production characteristics of four strains of Nile tilapia Oreochromis niloticus and a red variety under two sets of intensive culture conditions 

Peterman, Mark A. (2011-11-22)
The wide native range of Nile tilapia O. niloticus offers the possibility of genetic diversity within the species and variation among populations as to their suitability for aquaculture. But only a few populations have ...

Evaluation of soybean meal from selected cultivars of soybeans for use in practical diets for L. vannamei 

Fang, Xiaoyun (2013-11-08)
This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of twelve sources of soybean meal (SBM), which included new soy varieties in practical feed formulation for Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, using both digestibility ...

Evaluation of Soybeanmeal Quality as an Ingredient in Practical Diets for Pacific White Shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei 

Galkanda Arachchige, Harsha Sameera Chathuranga (2018-07-18)
Of potential protein sources, conventional soybean meal produced through traditional solvent extraction procedures has received the most attention among terrestrial plant sources, considering its well-balanced amino acid ...

Evaluation of the Commercially-Available Probiotic Lymnozyme as an Effective Control of Bacterial Infections in Channel Catfish 

Aboagye, Daniel (2008-05-15)
A major problem of commercially-cultured channel catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) in the S. E. United States is disease-related mortality. Probiotics may reduce diseases. A series of pond and challenge studies were conducted ...

Evaluation of Three Fish Species for Culture Using Low Salinity Groundwater in the Black Belt Region of Alabama 

Brown, Benjamin (2007-12-15)
The Black Belt region of Alabama is a rural, agricultural-based area with an economy largely dependent upon commercial catfish production. A unique fact about this region is that much of the landmass is underlain with ...

Genotype-Environment Interactions For Growth, Survival, Sexual Dimorphism and Seinability For Different Genetic Types of Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) ♀ X Blue Catfish (I. furcatus) ♂ Cultured In Three Environments 

Makhubu, Nonkonzo (2014-08-01)
For this study, eight genetic types of channel catfish (Ictarulus punctatus) female x blue catfish (I. furcatus) male hybrids were reared in three environments: a low density pond, a high density pond and an in-pond raceway ...

The Influence of the Probiotic PondToss™ on Growth Performance and Health of Channel Catfish, Ictalurus Punctatus, And Nile Tilapia, Oreochromis Niloticus 

Khan, Chan Dara (2014-10-24)
In 2011, global aquaculture production of food fish comprising channel catfish and Nile tilapia reached 62.7 million tonnes with an estimated value of US$ 130 billion. As aquaculture technology intensifies to meet market ...

Replacement of Fish Meal with Poultry By-Product Meal as a Protein Source in Sunshine Bass, Morone Chyrsops X Morone Saxatilis , Diets 

Pine, Harvey (2005-12-15)
The sunshine bass Morone chrysops x Morone saxatilis has become an important fish to aquaculture in the United States favored as both a sport fish and a food fish. As with many cultured species, feed often accounts for ...

Reproduction of channel x channel, channel x blue, and blue x blue catfish as influenced by morphological characteristics and behavior 

Vo, Khoi (2013-04-22)
Although hybrid catfish that are produced from channel female (Ictalurus punctatus) and blue male (Ictulurus furcatus) display superior characteristics for aquaculture, hybridization successes in natural environments are ...

Water Quality in Inland Saline Aquaculture Ponds and its Relationships to Shrimp Survival and Production 

Jarwar, Aslam (2015-12-08)
Survival and production of shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) in low-salinity pond waters at Greene Prairie Aquafarm (GAF) near Forkland in Green County Alabama varied greatly among ponds, but averages were higher in 2013 than ...
