    Uploaded by

    Rommel Corpuz
    This document discusses brood stock management of catfish. It outlines sources of brood stock including collection from the wild and growing wild fry in captivity. Selection of breeders is based on physical characteristics like swollen abdomens in females and elongated papillas in males. Nutritional requirements include animal protein, rice, and formulated feeds. Feeding is managed through careful hand feeding multiple times per day. Breeding tanks must be disinfected and have proper water chemistry values for oxygen, pH, carbon dioxide, hardness and other factors.

    Source of Brood stock

    collection from the wild


    growing wild fry to brood stock in captivity
    hatchery-reared
    SELECTION OF BREEDERS
    Female
    A well distended, swollen
    abdomen from which ripe eggs
    can be obtained by slightly
    pressing the abdomen toward the
    genital papilla. Ripe eggs are
    generally uniform in size and a
    experienced hatchery operator
    can see the nucleus as a small
    dark point in the centre of the
    egg.
    A swollen, sometimes reddish or
    rose coloured genital papilla.
    SELECTION OF BREEDERS
    Male
    Clear, more elongated and
    slightly swollen urogenital
    papilla
     they should be larger than 200
    g and not less than 7 months
    old.
    Nutritional Requirement and Feeding
    Adult (omnivores or carnivorous)

    kitchenrefuse
    fish meal

    broken rice or rice bran

    formulated feeds

    blood meal

    chicken intestines

    debris
    Feeding Management
    Feed more on animal protein but can be train to feed on
    supplemental
    feeds
    Careful hand feeding
    Avoid stress and over feeding
    2-3x a day frequency of feeding
    Feeding must be stopped when catfish stops showing
    interest in
    the feed ( controls according to appetite)
    Maintenance of breeding tanks
    Tanks must be disinfected to avoid disease outbreaks.
    Chlorine must be used to disinfect tanks and equipments. Although
    more expensive, formalin must be used.

    Mechanical screening (sand filters, carbon filters, screen filters) to


    remove particulate matter.

     Ozonization to eliminate pathogens

     Repaint and repair as needed

     Provide strong aeration


    Water Chemistry Values for Fish Hatcheries
    Oxygen 5 ppm saturation
    pH 6.5-8.0
    Carbon dioxide 0-15 ppm
    Total CaCo3, Alkalinity 50-400 ppm
    Total CaCo3, hardness 50-400 ppm
    Nitrate 0-3.0 ppm
    Magnesium Trace for buffer
    Hydrogen sulfide 0 ppm

    iron 0-0.5 ppm


    Phosphorus 0.01-3.0 ppm
    temperature 28-32 C
