Efecto del color del sustrato en el comportamiento de fijación del caballito de mar de hocico corto (Hippocampus hippocampus)

El caballito de mar (Hippocampus hippocampus) presenta una fase planctónica durante los primeros días de su vida. Cuando cambia a la fase bentónica ha de fijarse en un sustrato adecuado con su cola prensil. Este estudio, realizando recuentos diarios de la distribución de los caballitos en el acuario, ha obtenido como resultado que no existe una preferencia entre el color rojo y azul del sustrato a la hora de la fijación, no obstante, se observó una adaptación progresiva de los peces al sustrato artificial.The seahorse (Hippocampus hippocampus) presents a planktonic phase during the first days of life. During settlement, it fixes to a suitable substratum using its prehensile tail. This study, through a daily counts of the seahorse distribution in the aquarium, established that juveniles seahorse do not show a preference between the red or blue fixation substrates. However, it was observed a progressive adaptation of the fish to the artificial handmade substratum.

Estudio de la selección por el color del alimento en la tortuga boba Caretta caretta tras la eclosión

The behavior of newborn pups of loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) towards a potential food after hatching and before eating food for the first time was studied. There was no significant time trend approach and bite of potentially edible objects based on their color or size. However, a clear trend was observed for those objects that are transparent, white or red, independently the sex of the animal. Furthermore, it was verified that the turtles do not have a biting behavior to feed from first contact with water, but it comes after 3 or 4 days. There is also a learning process that determines the choice of targets of further attacks.

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.
