Spawning in captivity of two red porgy's broodstock groups (Pagrus pagrus) of the same age was studied during one season. These two broodstock groups, designed A and B, were fed with different regimes during the spawning period. A group was fed on moist pellet while (A diet content 45% proteins, 10% lipids) B group was fed on fresh fish (A diet content 48 % protein, 8.7% lipids). The total eggs collected number for A group was 22 million eggs of which 18 million were viable, fertility was 474,966 eggs kg -1 female. For B group, eggs collected number was 36 million eggs of which 31 million were viable fertility was 769,186 eggs kg -1 female. Statistically, there was a significant difference between the two groups in terms of quantity and quality of spawning and larval survivals recorded on second day after hatching and on fifth day after hatching.

“…Female C. fasciata allocates a major por- tion of assimilated energy to gonad development and a small fraction of energy could be spared for growth during and just prior to breeding. Cessation of somatic growth with gonad development was observed in salmonids (Hardy, 1983;Washburn et al, 1990) and it has been suggested that this is the result of hormonal changes during the later phase of gametogenesis. Fish fed pelleted feed had poorer fertility than the other groups.…”

A comprehensive trial was undertaken to assess the effect of various types of feed on biomass conversion rate as well as on gonad (ovarian) weight in Colisa fasciata, a dual-purpose fish for food and ornamental use. Three groups of juvenile fish (3.0±0.015 g; 10.00±0.75 mm) were fed with three different types of feed: dried earthworm feed, laboratory prepared feed (LPF) and market feed. The LPF made with dried earthworm powder, eggshell powder and plant rhizome (Commelina sp.) dusts proved to be the best and economical feed among the three feed tested. The LPF also increased gonad weight of the cultured fishes indicating a production of more fish offspring’s from a single female fish. The plant rhizome possibly played a role in increasingly appetite among LPF cultured fish, which in turn influenced somatic as well as reproductive growth of those fish.

“…However, there are references describing successful reproduction in fish fed a high-carbohydrate diet (Washburn et al 1990). These discrepancies are due possibly to the amount of protein used, which was perhaps too low in the present study.…”

The fructose 1,6 biphosphatase (FBPase) activity was measured in the liver and gonads of broodstock sea bass that were fed three experimental diets over the reproductive cycle. Enzyme activity was measured at the pre-spawning (November), spawning (February) and post-spawning (May) periods. Additionally, some biometric indices were calculated at these three times. The different diets, one with standard composition (51% protein, 13% lipid, 10% digestible carbohydrates), one with a high-carbohydrate content (32% protein, 13% lipid, 32% digestible carbohydrates) and one deficient in o3 essential fatty acids (51% protein, 13% lipid, 10% digestible carbohydrates), had similar affects on growth and gonad development, as deduced from the similar weight, condition factor, hepatosomatic index, gonadosomatic index and liposomatic index over the reproductive cycle. FBPase activity was detected at all times in the liver of both sexes, and in the ovaries but not in the testes. In general, females showed greater liver activity than males, especially at spawning time. During post-spawning, FBPase activity fell in tissues of both sexes. Enzyme activity was also affected, mostly in the liver, by the different types of feed; hepatic activity in fish fed the high-carbohydrate diet fell during the spawning and post-spawning periods, though at a different level for each sex. The diet deficient in 3 EFA presented the lowest FBPase activity, compared with the other diets, in females during the spawning period; there was very little change in males or females over the reproductive cycle. The results showed that the highest gluconeogenic activity in sea bass broodstock occurred at the spawning time and the females had larger glucose requirements than males over the reproductive cycle, as demonstrated by the absence of FBPase activity in testes. This work also confirmed the adaptative capacity of this enzyme to different nutritional and physiological conditions. Introductionintermediary metabolism.
