Sultan Fish
• Leptobarbus hoevenii (Jelawat)
6
Malayan Mahseer
• Tor tambroides (Kelah)
7
Walking catfish
• Clarias batrachus (Keli bunga)
8
• TILAPIA
9
Tilapia: aquatic chicken
•
•
•
•
•
•
Good growth
High fertility
Omnivorous – eat all
Cultivation at high density
Strong fish, resistant to handling
Good reputation to consumers
10
Major constraint
• Precocious – Mature early
• Multiple breeding
• Overpopulation & small fishes
(stunting)-low economic value
11
Solutions
•
•
•
•
Monosex tilapia- ALL MALE
Male size > Female
Use hormone to reverse the sex
Certain breeding techniques
12
Tilapia
Native to Africa & Middle East
Classified into 3 genera:
1)Tilapia
2) Saratherodon
3) Oreochromis- best species of aquaculture
According to breeding behaviour
13
Mozambique Tilapia
High potential for hybridization to have
male tilapia
14
Nile Tilapia
15
Red tilapia
• Cross between genetic mutant of
Mozambique & Nile Tilapia
16
GIFT Tilapia
• Genetically improved farmed tilapia
(GIFT)
• Tilapia selective breeding
• Choosing and breeding parents with
favorable traits
• Offspring wide body conformation
• Higher productivity, fast growth
17
18
Striped catfish
• Pangasius hypophtalmus (Patin buah)
19
River Catfish (Native)
• Mystus nemurus, Hemibagrus nemurus
(Baung)
20
Snakehead
• Channa striata (Haruan)
21
Marble goby
• Oxyleotris marmoratus
• (Ketutu, Ikan bodoh, ikan ubi)
• Popular among chinese community, healing
properties, fine texture, tasty white flesh
22
Common carp
• Cyprinus carpio (Lee Koh)
23
Invasive species
• Non-native (or alien)to the ecosystem
24
Silver carp
• Hypothalmichthys molitrix (Kap perak)
25
Bighead carp
Hypophtalmichtys nobilis (Kap Kepala Besar)
26
Grass carp
• Ctenopharyngodon idella (Kap rumput)
27
Javanese carp
Puntius gonionotus (Lampam Jawa)
28
Climbing perch
• Anabas testudineus (Puyu)
• Labyrinth organ : accessory breathing
organ – used for respiration in air
• Allow to take oxygen directly from the air
29
Giant Gourami
Osphronemus goramy (Kalui)
30
Selection of Species
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Fast growth (Early maturation, high fecundity)
Short food chain
Efficient conversion of food
Can accept compounded feed
Disease resistance
Ease of breeding in captivity
Able to tolerate wide range of environmental
parameter
31

33
Migration of fishes
• Diadromous = Migrate between sea &
freshwater
1) Anadromous = lives in the sea &
migrate to fresh water to breed
e.g., salmon
2) Catadromous = lives in freshwater &
migrate to the sea
e.g., eel
34
Salmon
• Fish return to the exact spot where
they were born to spawn
• Die within few days or weeks after
spawning
