PRINCIPLES OF AQUACULTURE(AKU3201) Freshwater species Marine species Selection of species
Lectures • Classification • Freshwater fishes • Selection of species • Marine fishes • Selection of site • Culture methods
Scientific name • Clarias batrachus • C. batrachus • Clarias sp.
Kingdom : Animalia • Phylum : Chordata • Class : Actinopterygii • Order : Perciformes • Family : Cichlidae • Genus : Oreochromis • Species : O. niloticus
Sultan Fish • Leptobarbus hoevenii (Jelawat)
Malayan Mahseer • Tor tambroides (Kelah)
Walking catfish • Clarias batrachus (Keli bunga)
Tilapia: aquatic chicken • Good growth • High fertility • Omnivorous – eat all • Cultivation at high density • Strong fish, resistant to handling • Good reputation to consumers
Major constraint • Precocious – Mature early • Multiple breeding • Overpopulation & small fishes (stunting)-low economic value
Solutions • Monosex tilapia- ALL MALE • Male size > Female • Use hormone to reverse the sex • Certain breeding techniques
Tilapia Native to Africa & Middle East Classified into 3 genera: 1)Tilapia 2) Saratherodon 3) Oreochromis- best species of aquaculture According to breeding behaviour
Mozambique Tilapia High potential for hybridization to have male tilapia
Red tilapia • Cross between genetic mutant of Mozambique & Nile Tilapia
GIFT Tilapia • Genetically improved farmed tilapia (GIFT) • Tilapia selective breeding • Choosing and breeding parents with favorable traits • Offspring wide body conformation • Higher productivity, fast growth
Striped catfish • Pangasius hypophtalmus (Patin buah)
River Catfish (Native) • Mystus nemurus, Hemibagrus nemurus (Baung)
Snakehead • Channa striata (Haruan)
Marble goby • Oxyleotris marmoratus • (Ketutu, Ikan bodoh, ikan ubi) • Popular among chinese community, healing properties, fine texture, tasty white flesh
Common carp • Cyprinus carpio (Lee Koh)
Invasive species • Non-native (or alien)to the ecosystem
Silver carp • Hypothalmichthys molitrix (Kap perak)
Bighead carp Hypophtalmichtys nobilis (Kap Kepala Besar)
Grass carp • Ctenopharyngodon idella (Kap rumput)
Javanese carp Puntius gonionotus (Lampam Jawa)
Climbing perch • Anabastestudineus (Puyu) • Labyrinth organ : accessory breathing organ – used for respiration in air • Allow to take oxygen directly from the air
Giant Gourami Osphronemus goramy (Kalui)
Selection of Species • Fast growth (Early maturation, high fecundity) • Short food chain • Efficient conversion of food • Can accept compounded feed • Disease resistance • Ease of breeding in captivity • Able to tolerate wide range of environmental parameter
Migration of fishes • Diadromous = Migrate between sea & freshwater 1) Anadromous = lives in the sea & migrate to fresh water to breed e.g., salmon 2) Catadromous = lives in freshwater & migrate to the sea e.g., eel
Salmon • Fish return to the exact spot where they were born to spawn • Die within few days or weeks after spawning
