Hatchery production of Florida red tilapia seed (eggs, sacfry and fry) in brackishwater (12 ppt) tanks was studied on Lee Stocking Island (Exuma Cays, Bahamas) under two methods of broodstock management. Six above-ground tanks (34.2 m2) were each stocked with 240 year-class 1 breeders (...
This paper describes the protocol of this small-scale hatcheryproduction system and larval rearing techniques for the saline-tolerant tilapias. It outlines the detailedprocedures from broodstock selection and maintenance, hatchery management and larval rearingincluding production of all-male offpsprings ...
Nile tilapia broodstock (60 females and 20 males) were mated at a ratio of three females to one male in one 60 m3 circular concrete tank under a natural photoperiod (12-h light; 12-h dark) and water temperature (26 ± 2.1 oC). After two weeks, the mouths of female individuals were ...
(Mires, 1977; FAO, 2014). Difficulties in species identification caused by the hybrids and poorbroodstockmanagement resulted in these production systems becoming much less reliable as hybrid fish entered and bred with the pure species broodstock pools resulting in a reduction in performance and value...

Broodstock managementNile tilapiaNile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus) has rapidly become an important species for aquaculture, although their intensive culture remains constrained by poor spawning synchrony and low fecundity, adding significant cost to hatchery production. Previous research has indicated that...
Removal of the maxillary bone also influenced weight gain of broodstock. It is hypothesized that these significant responses were due to the surgical removal of the maxillary bone and the subsequent breakdown in dominance hierarchies.BehrendsAgricultural...
