BIOLOGICAL STUDIES ON THE FRESH-WATER SHRIMPS IN KOREA 3. The Food an4 Growth of the Larvae of Palaemon modeatus

한국산 민물 새우류에 관한 생물학적 연구 3. Palaemon modestus 유생의 먹이와 성장

There are a lot of kinds of shrimps for fishing baits, but Palaemon modestus is dominant species in the Karak River. The ecology in the natural environments was reported by the author (1970) and this work is an elemental task for the larval stage in shrimp farms. Shrimps were collected from the Karak River and carried to the laboratory. Hatched larvae were reared from June 6 to June 24, 1970 for pre-experiment, and main experiment was provided from August 10 to August 24, 1970. The following is a summary of the results: 1. Hatching period in the laboratory water tank was eight hours ($20^{\circ}C\~20.9^{\circ}C$). 2. The larvae died off from the sixth day after hatch without food. 3. Feeding begins on the third day after hatch. 4. The relationship between the density of food and the consumption was not concerned when the number of Artemia nauplii was 2 to 6 per ml of water. 5. The relationship between the day (X) and the food (Y) is: $$Y=6.49824X^{1.8384}$$ 6. The carapace growth curve is: $Y=1.1608X^{0.10024}$ 7. The relationship between the food (X) and the body length (Y) is: $$Y=2.8114X^{0.12767}$$ 8. The relationship between the carapace length and the body length(Y) is : Y= 3.7564X-0.4601

Palaemon modestus 유생을 실험실 수조 내에서 사육한 결과는 아래와 같다. 1. 포란 개체의 산란 소요 시간은 실험실 수조내에서 8시간 이내였다($20^{\circ}C\~20.9^{\circ}C$). 2. 먹이를 주지 않았을 때 6일째부터 사망하기 시작하였다. 3. 유생의 섭이는 3일째부터 활발하므로 사육시 투이시기는 부화 3일째부터가 적당하겠다. 4. 수중 먹이량의 밀도와 식이 관계는 Artemia Salina의 nauplii $2\~6$마리/ml 내에서는 큰 차이가 없었다. 5. 유생 사육일(X)과 먹이량(Y)과의 회귀 관계는 $Y=6.49824X^{1.8384}$이었다. 6. 유생의 갑장 성장은 $Y=1.1608X^{0.10024}$로 표시되었다. 7. 먹이량(X)에 대한 체장(Y)의 회귀 관계는 $Y=2.8114X^{0.12767}$로 표시되었다. 8. 갑장(X)에 대한 체장(Y)의 회귀 관계는 Y= 3.7564X-0.4601로 표시되었다.
