In the current technology, fish feed extruders play a key role in production lines. Although the majority of the process of the fish feed production occurs in the extruder, grinding and mixing can highly affect the quality of the final product. [14] Water is added and the resulting paste is extruded through holes in a metal plate. The diameter ...
Ram feeding and suction feeding are on opposite sides of the feeding spectrum, where extreme ram feeding is when a predator swims over an immobile prey item with open jaws to engulf the prey. Extreme suction feeding is demonstrated by sit-and-wait predators that rely on rapid depression of the jaws to capture prey (e.g., frogfish, Antennariidae).
Aquaculture means the sea cucumbers are farmed in contained areas where they can be cultured in a controlled manner. In China, sea cucumbers are cultured, along with prawns and some fish species, in integrated multi-trophic systems. In these systems, the sea cucumbers feed on the waste and feces from the other species.
Gill rakers in fish are bony or cartilaginous processes that project from the branchial arch (gill arch) and are involved with suspension feeding tiny prey. They are not to be confused with the gill filaments that compose the fleshy part of the gill used for gas exchange. Rakers are usually present in two rows, projecting from both the anterior ...
There are multiple chambers within the electronic fish feeder when the feeder rotates (clockwise); the food is released at a set time. With the help of the feeder, feeding mixed food to the fish, including fish flakes and fish pellets, becomes more manageable. The mounting system is typically in the form of hooks or brackets.
Stichopus herrmanni, or Herrmann's sea cucumber, [3] is a species of holothuroidean echinoderm in the family Stichopodidae. It is found in the tropical, western Indo-Pacific Ocean, at depths down to 20 m (66 ft). [2] This and several other species are known as curryfish and are harvested commercially; it is called gama in Indonesia. [4]
