There has been growing interest in the development of mud crab aquaculture in New Caledonia. However, for this to become established at a commercial level, a cost-effective formulated feed based on internationally-available ingredients needs to be developed. We have evaluated the optimal dietary protein content for juvenile crabs, Scylla serrata (Forskål, 1775), using a series of diets with a protein content ranging from 27 to 49% and soy protein concentrate (SPC) as the main protein source. For this purpose, 54 individually housed crabs were allocated to five dietary treatments (n = 10 or 11). The crabs were fed ad libitum, for 81 days with the allocated diets. The apparent digestibilities of dry mater, crude protein and energy were high (96.2-97.3%),... |

The mangrove crab, Scylla serrata (Forskal) is a potential candidate for aquaculture development in Mauritius and experimental trials on its culture were carried out from 1997 to 2002. It has a fast growth rate and tolerates a wide range of physico-chemical parameters. The survival rate of Scylla serrata, both under the controlled/hatchery conditions and in the natural eco-habitat is low. In 1997, the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) launched the “Coastal Fisheries Resources & Environment Conservation Project” to enhance the stock of crab in the lagoon waters. The quantity of crab juveniles for culture in barachois is dependent on the availability of seed in the lagoon. Hatchery-produced crab juveniles were reared for experimentation/study... |
