Life History Freshwater prawns, like all crustaceans, have a hard outer skeleton or shell that must be shed regularly in order for growth to occur. The process of shedding the shell is called "molting," and weight and size increases occur principally soon after each molt. Because of these periodic molts, growth occurs in distinct increments, rather than continuously. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Breeding Females generally become reproductively mature within 6 months. Mating can occur only between hard-shelled males and soft-shelled females, i.e., females who have just completed a premating or prenuptial molt. The male deposits sperm into a gelatinous mass that is held underneath the body of the female, between her fourth pair of walking legs. Eggs are laid within a few hours after mating and are fertilized by the sperm contained in the gelatinous mass attached to the outside of the female's body. The female then transfers the fertilized eggs to the underside of the abdominal (tail) region, in a "brood chamber," where they are kept aerated and cleaned by movement of the abdominal swimming appendages. Eggs remain attached to the abdomen until they hatch. The number of eggs produced at each spawn is directly proportional to the size of the female. As long as water temperature exceeds 70 °F, multiple spawns per female can occur annually. Females carrying eggs are termed "berried females." The bright-orange color of newly spawned eggs gradually changes to orange, then brown, and finally gray about 2 to 3 days before hatching. At a temperature of 82 °F, the eggs hatch approximately 20 to 21 after spawning. Newly hatched freshwater prawns enter into a larval phase of growth and metamorphosis. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Larvae After hatching, larvae are released and swim upside down and tail first. The larvae cannot survive in freshwater beyond approximately 48 hours and migrate to brackish water with a salinity of 10 to 14 parts per thousand (ppt). Larvae are aggressive sight feeders and feed almost continuously, primarily on small zooplankton, worms, and larval stages of other aquatic invertebrates. Larvae undergo 11 molts, each representing a different stage of metamorphosis. Following the last molt, larvae transform into postlarvae. Transformation from newly hatched larvae to postlarvae requires 15 to 40 days, depending upon food quantity and quality, temperature, and a variety of other water quality variables. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Postlarvae After metamorphosis to postlarvae, the prawns resemble miniature adult prawns, about 7 to 10 mm (0.3-0.4 inch) long and weighing 6 to 9 mg (50,000 to 76,000 per pound). The prawns behaviorally change from living suspended in the water column to principally bottom dwelling, crawling individuals. When they do swim, they move like adults with the dorsal (back) side uppermost and in a head-forward direction. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Postlarvae Diet Postlarvae can tolerate a range of salinities and migrate to freshwater upon transformation. In addition to the food they ate as larvae, larger pieces of animal and plant materials will be ingested. The diet includes larval and adult insects, algae, mollusks, worms, fish, and feces of fish and other animals. At high densities, or under conditions of food limitations, prawns become cannibalistic. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Prawn Juvenile Postlarvae are translucent and may have a light-orange-pink head. As they change to the juvenile stage, they take on the bluish to brownish color of the adult stage. Juveniles are intermediate in size between postlarvae and adults; however, no standard definition for the juvenile stage exists. Bapak Udang Galah.  Details...

Tangsi Perambut Udang Galah Perambut udang galah kebiasaannya ialah menggunakan tangsi 6 paun hingga 12 paun. Ini sudah memadai dengan berat udang itu sendiri. Kekuatan 12 paun boleh menampung dan mengangkat beban maksimum 5.5 kilogram sudah terlalu besar untuk udang galah sungai yang purata 50 gram hingga 500 gram. Panjang perambut seeloknya 15 sentimeter atau lebih kurang sejengkal jari orang dewasa. Jenis tangsi biarlah yang lembut supaya udang galah tidak begitu 'terasa' beban ketika mengunyah umpan. Bapak Udang Galah   Details...

The monsoon season has struck the east coast again. The water is muddy and fast flowing. Anglers cant go out fishing, so it gives time for the prawns to breed and grow. After the monsoon season, the catch was good. After fishing for about 6 hours admin and his friends managed to catch about 3 kilos of fresh water prawns.

Prawns Information

Freshwater prawn farming the world over has registered increase in the past decade. In India, a spurt in freshwater prawn farming activities can be seen in the recent years. The objective of the symposium was to evaluate globally the progress made and to critically analyse the constraints and shortcoming in freshwater prawn  farming and research. K. V.Thomas, Minister for Fisheries and Tourism,Government of Kerala while inaugurating the symposium, stressed on the importance of freshwater prawn farming in India, especially in Kerala. He expressed concern over the pollution of the freshwater bodies in the country and suggested a scheme for cleaning Vembanad Lake, one of the largest lakes in the country.
