Efecto de la densidad larvaria y secuencial alimentaria en el cultivo larvario de corvina (Argyrosomus regius Asso, 1801) durante el primer mes de vida

Effect of larval density and feeding sequence on meagre (Argyrosomus regius Asso, 1801) larval rearing during the first month of life. In the present work two comparative studies of the effect of larval density and feeding sequence were performed. For such, two initial larval densities, 50 larvae.l-1 and 100 larvae.l-1 were established. In each density three feeding sequences were tested, applying different combinations of rotifers (Brachionus sp.) and Artemia sp. at different larval ages. After 30dah, standard length, dry weight and final survival were determined. Final survival was affected by initial larval density and feeding sequence. Lower density promotes better growth in dry weight and standard length for all the feeding sequences tested. In addition, feeding sequences affects larval growth and survival. Best result in survival (62,81±4,77%) were obtained with high larval density and T2 feeding sequence.

Optimización del protocolo de destete de corvina (Argyrosomus regius, Asso, 1801)

[EN] Argyrosomus regius is a new species of interest in aquaculture. Nevertheless, few are the works published on this species and less even in larvae culture and weaning. In this study 2 experiments were done, in tanks of 15 l, with larvae of 15 and 34 days of life, respectively to which 2 different protocols for their weaning were applied. The provided food consisted of a mixture of Artemia and microdiet to different concentration. In experiment A, the best results of growth were observed in treatment 1 and worse in treatment 3, nevertheless in the survival the opposite happened. In experiment B, the best results they were reached with larvae submitted to low density and with significant difference between treatment 1 and 2, in survival no significant differences were found between the different treatments.

Efecto de la inclusión de harinas de cangrejo de diferente origen en piensos para bocinegro (Pagrus pagrus) sobre el crecimiento, utilización de la dieta y coloración de la piel

[EN] The effect of dietary inclusion of two type of crab meal on growth, feed utilization and skin coloration performance was investigated in a growth trial with red porgy (Pagrus pagrus) of 233g initial body weight, during 6 month feeding period. High quality fish meal and fish oil diet was used as a control (Diet C). Protein of fish meal in the control was replaced by increasing dietary levels of protein derived from a river crab meal (Procamburus clarkii) (CR) and a marine crab meal (Chaceon affinis) (CM) at 10% and 20% each of them. Regarding growth results, fish fed the CM20 diet showed the highest values in absolute final weight and percent of the initial weight. For animals fed the crab meal based diets, the colour result was better than that of fish fed the control one, showing skin redness similar to that of the wild specimens. For both ingredients, increasing dietary inclusions were accompanied for an increment of the colour saturation, being in this case the obtained value for the CR meal higher than those for the CM meal. Present results indicate that crab meals used in this study are suitable as partial replacers for fish meal in diets for the red porgy.

Effect of rearing technique over skeletal deformities incidence and osteological development in red porgy Pagrus pagrus (Linnaeus, 1758) larvae

[EN]Red porgy is a candidate species for marine aquaculture diversification.The objective of the present study was to describe the osteological development and the occurrence of skeletal deformities in Pagrus pagrus larvae in relation to the intensification of the rearing system. Fish samples were periodically collected along the development from hatching to juveniles (95days after hatching). Osteological development and the presence of skeleton abnormalities were evaluated. X-ray studies revealed a high number of fish (Semi-intensive:38.8%; Intensive:46.5 %) with skeletal deformities. No significant interaction was found on the incidence of lordosis and fused vertebrae with the rearing tecnique. However, cranial abnormalities and kyphosis incidences were significantly higher in intensive system cultured red porgy. Also, the position of fused vertebrae in this fish was located mainly in the caudal area instead of pre-hemal area for semi-intensive system reared red porgy. Present results, suggest a relationship among feeding sequence, osteological development and deformity incidence and location in red porgy larvae

Effect of rearing system intensiveness on biological features, culture performance and larval quality of meagre (Argyrosomus regius Asso, 1801) larvae

[EN]Meagre, Argyrosomus regius A., is a new species for aquaculture in south Atlantic and Mediterranean regions, that can reach a mean fresh weight of 8.02±2.51g. at 95dah. However, hatchery techniques must be improved to optimize culture performance and larval quality. Eggs of meagre were cultured under intensive (75 indv.l-1 in 2m3 tanks) and semi-intensive system (7.5 indv.l-1 in 40m3 tanks) to evaluate the effect of the intensification on biological features, stress resistance and skeletal deformities. At 30dah, despite in semi-intensive system reared larvae a higher total length (19.08± 2.3mm vs 16.00±1.54mm), dry body weight (13.09± 2.43mg vs 6.46±0.52mg), and survival after the activity test (75.0± 13.8% vs 53.3±11.5%) was found, the use of intensive systems were also very suitable and cost-effective for larval rearing of this species

Experiencias preliminares de cultivo de crías de Hippocampus hippocampus (Linnaeus, 1758) en Gran Canaria

[EN]Seahorses husbandry constitute an innovative aspect on the recovery of wild populations. In this study, two aeration levels were tested (normal and strong) in seahorse juveniles fed on Artemia. Survival and growth were evaluated. The results showed higher survivals (11% average) with strong aerations levels after 90 days. In addition, these juveniles were able to reproduce after 4 months, denoting the early sexual maturation of this species. However, sizes of second-generation larvae at day 0 were smaller compared with those produced by their parents

Desarrollo de las técnicas de producción de crías de bocinegro (Pagrus pagrus) en Canarias

[ES] La incorporación de nuevas especies de peces marinos a la acuicultura, es un reto para el futuro desarrollo de esta actividad. Los avances realizados en el establecimiento de las técnicas de cultivo de bocinegro (pargo, Pagrus pagrus), permiten considerarlo como una especie con un fuerte potencial para la acuicultura siendo previsible que su cultivo experimente un impulso importante en el archipiélago canario. Sin embargo, las investigaciones han permitido identificar varios problemas que deben solventarse antes de que el bocinegro pueda cultivarse comercialmente, siendo una de las necesidades más acuciantes la de completar las técnicas de producción de larvas y alevines, y estudiar detenidamente la alimentación a suministrar durante todo el ciclo larvario. Por ello, el trabajo que se presenta tiene como objetivo principal tratar de optimizar las técnicas de producción de larvas y alevines de bocinegro en las condiciones ambientales del archipiélago canario. Esto se realizará a partir de una técnica japonesa muy novedosa, para establecer según el comportamiento larvario, las pautas de alimentación a seguir para completar el ciclo larvario del bocinegro. El comportamiento obtenido se comparará con el de la dorada, ya que es una de las especies más estudiadas debido a la importancia adquirida en la acuicultura europea de los últimos años. Con todo esto, se construirá un criterio de calidad de la dieta a partir de las pautas de comportamiento establecidas.
