Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of body size and water temperature on food consumption and growth in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Selenka) with special reference to aestivation
TL;DR: To investigate the effects of body size and water temperature on feeding and growth in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Selenka), the maximum rate of food consumption and specific growth rate in terms of energy and SGRe in animals of three body sizes were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Feeding and growth on bivalve biodeposits by the deposit feeder Stichopus japonicus Selenka (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea) co-cultured in lantern nets
TL;DR: Bivalve lantern nets can provide a good habitat for sea cucumbers; and the co-culture of bivalve molluscs with sea cucumber may provide an additional valuable crop with no additional inputs.
Journal ArticleDOI
The influence of diets containing dried bivalve feces and/or powdered algae on growth and energy distribution in sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Selenka) (Echinodermata : Holothuroidea)
TL;DR: It seems a conflict exists between drying bivalve feces to form extruded diets and feeding sea cucumbers with fresh feces which contain beneficial bacteria, which could be helpful in further development of more appropriate diets for culture of holothurians.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence, distribution, and bioaccumulation of antibiotics in coastal environment of Dalian, China.
TL;DR: The average BAFs and sorption coefficient Kd,s values revealed that sulfameter, sulfadiazine, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfamonomethoxine, chloramphenicol, and doxycycline presented higher sorption capacities than the other antibiotics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Metabolic characteristics of sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus (Selenka) during aestivation
TL;DR: With the exception of 15 degrees C, the O/N ratios of large size sea cucumbers was close to 20 across the temperatures used in this study, indicating that their energy Source was a combination of lipid and protein, while on the other hand, apart from small individuals maintained at 10 degreesC, theO/N ratio of the medium and small sea Cucumbers were close to 10, indicatingthat protein was their major energy source.
