Feeding Habits of the Smallscale Fat Snook from East‐Central Florida

Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 2014
AbstractIn general, snook Centropomus spp. are opportunistic carnivores, feeding on fish and crustaceans, as shown by other studies on diets of centropomids in the western Atlantic Ocean. Diet studies for centropomids in Florida refer only to a description of the diet and the ontogenetic shifts in prey preferences of Common Snook C.

Multiple spawning of the fat snook Centropomus parallelus using different dosages of LHRH

2008
The present experiment studied the effect of different LHRHa doses and multiple inductions to obtain consecutive spawnings in one reproductive season of the female fat snook Centropomus parallelus. The LHRHa hormone was administered in cholesterol pellets. Five induction cycles were carried out, with 16 females and 32 males induced per cycle.

Lipidic and proteic absorption in digestive tract of tropical fat snook (Centropomus parallelus, POEY 1860)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2010
The tropical fat snook Centropomus parallelus is a species of recognized ecological importance and with a high economical potential for fisheries and aquaculture. The investigations of digestive tube morphology in association with their feeding abilities are fundamental to improve techniques for aquaculture feeding procedures.

Hematological parameters and phagocytic activity in fat snook (Centropomus parallelus): Seasonal variation, sex and gonadal maturation

Aquaculture, 2009
The objective of this work was to determine hematological parameters and the phagocytic capacity of peritoneal macrophages of the fat snook related to sex, stage of gonadal maturation and seasonal cycle. The hematological results did not show significant differences between males and females.

Feminization and growth of juvenile fat snook Centropomus parallelus fed diets with different concentrations of estradiol-17β

Aquaculture International, 2014
In this study, we evaluated the effect of diets with various concentrations of estradiol-17β (E2) on the feminization, growth and survival of juvenile fat snook. Over a 45-day period, the juveniles were fed with five diets containing 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 mg E2/kg feed. Three replicates were run for each diet.

Lack of genetic differentiation in the fat snook Centropomus parallelus (Teleostei: Centropomidae) along the Brazilian coast

Journal of Fish Biology, 2008
The patterns of genetic variation in a fragment of the cytochrome b mtDNA gene in 130 individuals of the fat snook (Centropomus parallelus) did not show evidence of genetic differentiation along the Brazilian coast as shown in F‐statistics and AMOVA analyses, indicating the existence of high gene flow among the studied populations.

Survival, growth and digestive enzyme activity of juveniles of the fat snook (Centropomus parallelus) reared at different salinities

Aquaculture, 2007
The effect of salinity on survival, growth and activity of digestive enzymes was evaluated in the fat snook (Centropomus parallelus). Juveniles of 76 days after hatching (0.35 g) were reared at 5, 15 and 35 ppt, in triplicate, for 50 days, at 0.6 fish/l.

Effect of stocking density and vertical substrate addition on growth performance and health status of fat snook Centropomus parallelus

Aquaculture, 2016
Abstract Fat snook Centropomus parallelus is one of marine finfish species with farm potential in Brazil, although some adjustments in farm practices are required to optimize its production. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different stocking densities and vertical substrate addition on growth, survival and health status, such as ...

Use of the copepod Acartia tonsa as the first live food for larvae of the fat snook Centropomus parallelus

Aquaculture, 2013
Abstract High-quality live food is essential for reducing the frequent high mortality of newly hatched fat snook ( Centropomus parallelus ) larvae in hatcheries. Copepods, a rich nutrition source, cultivated with the microalgae Chaetoceros muelleri and Isochrysis galbana , were evaluated as food for 0–14-day-old larvae.
