What is the species name?
Brachionus plicatilis
Give THREE (3) factors to be considered while selecting types of feed.
the species being cultured, age of the animals being fed, culture conditions, level of intensification.
Give TWO (2) disadvantages of live feed.
• unreliable quality and quantity when obtained from the wild • labour costs • specialist skills required for culturing • culture continuously
Give TWO (2) benefits of using live feed.
suitable for larval stages of marine species that will not accept artificial feeds • the nutritional value can be manipulated to meet requirements.
Copepod produce eggs asexually.
No. Sexually.
Daphnia can reproduce asexual and sexual?
Asexual and sexual
Artemia can produce eggs asexually?
No. It reproduce sexually.
Artemia is freshwater or seawater species?
seawater
When rotifer reproduce sexually?
when environmental conditions are stressful.
Microalgae reproduce asexual or sexual?
Asexual and sexual
Give TWO (2) differences between moina and daphnia
Moina is smaller in size, higher protein content.
Why Daphnia is not suitable for marine fish species?
Freshwater species, Low content of essential fatty acids, Low HUFA
Give THREE (3) reasons why rotifer is so popular among fish hatcheries?
Tolerance to a wide range of environmental conditions, High reproduction rate, Small size, Slow swimming velocity.
Why hatchery has to culture microalgae?
food source for zooplankton, bivalve, gastropod, fish larvae, shrimp larvae
Give THREE (3) criteria for food source that is suitable for the fish fries.
easily digestible, contains enzymes systems which allow autolysis, supplies all the essential nutrients
Give TWO (2) reasons why fish larvae won't eat pellet?
Small size (small mouth size), Uncompleted development of their perception organs (eyes, chemo receptors), Digestive systems. Cant produce enzyme for digesting
Give THREE (3) characteristics of fish fries.
Delicate and small, Power of movement + ability to feed - weak, Their diet is restricted to a number of items, Very low adaptive to environment.
When fish larvae starts to eat? How many days old?
3 or 4-day-old
Why fish hatchery needs live feed?
Larval rearing success largely depends on fish larvae feeding
What is plankton?
the diverse collection of organisms that live in large bodies of water and are unable to swim against a current.
What are live foods?
Able to swim in water column, Constantly available to fish and shellfish larvae, Likely to stimulate larval feeding response.
