We examined the potential for producing the large numbers of sandfish (Holothuria scabra) needed for restocking programmes by co-culturing juveniles with the shrimp Litopenaeus stylirostris in earthen ponds. Our experiments in hapas within shrimp ponds were designed to detect any deleterious effects of sandfish on shrimp, and vice versa. These experiments showed that a high stocking density of juvenile sandfish had no significant effects on growth and survival of shrimp. However, survival and growth of sandfish reared with shrimp for 3 weeks were significantly lower than for sandfish reared alone. Increased stocking density of shrimp also had a significant negative effect on survival and/or growth of sandfish. A grow-out trial of juvenile sandfish in...

Autores: Hoareau, T.; Conand, C.
Stichopus chloronotus is a holothurian of the orderAspidochirotes, family Stichopodidae, that is widelydistributed across the tropical Indo-Pacific region. It ismainly found on reef flats and slopes with considerablehydrodynamic energy. The species' density is relativelylow, but sometimes reaches up to several specimens perm2 (Franklin 1980; Conand 1989; Uthicke 1994; Conandet al. 1998).   Similarly to nine other Aspidochirotes sea cucumbers,they can reproduce both sexually and asexually (Uthicke1994, 1997,2001; Conand et al. 1998). Their sexualreproduction has been studied in Australia (Franklin1980) and Malaysia (Tan ShauHwai and Bin Yasin 2000).Asexual reproduction is achieved by transverse fissionresulting in two animals that each regenerate the...
