    Description: Hamoun fish, Schizothorax zarudnyi, is an indigenous species of the eastern waters of Iran, which is exclusively found in this region. However recently drought occurrence in the Chahnimeh reservoirs (a semi natural water body) making them vulnerable to extinction. As an appropriate action to address this problem and according to the 3 side contract between Italian Government – UNDP - Islamic republic of Iran Government and the Italian government financial support to reduce poverty in the Province of Sistan-Baluchestan through the reinforcement and dissemination of aquaculture activities the project was developed at the Hamoun Research Unit by the Chahbahar Fisheries Research Center to record the breeding normative of 1 g weight larvae for restocking and other researching purposes. 331 broodstocks of the indigenous species Shizothorax zarudnyi weighing 800-2450 g were collected from the Chahnimeh reservoirs in early autumn, 2006. From 5/3/2007 (the project is supported and communicated on 2010) , Ovulation was stimulated with three stimulators; pituitary extract (3-6 mg kg-1 body weight), GnRH-A (20-30 mg kg-1 body weight) and anti dopamine (10-15 mg kg-1 body weight) that was given in 2-3 doses to breeders. Of 169 injected breeders , some were injected On mid March of 2007 (12-13 ºC water temperature) responded to the injection 25% ,while the rest were injected On April of 2008 (14-16 ºC water temperature) responded to the injection 65%. In the present project of 167 breeders 82 were female and 87 male. Totally 30 female breeders released their eggs in different stages. 20 female breeders released their eggs completely, 3 breeders released half of their eggs and 7 released 1/3 of their eggs. The male breeders just injected in the final dose of hormontrapy and all were ready for releasing sperms however the ovulation in female breeders occurs between 353-428 h ºC and after the final dose of injection. Ripe eggs were stripped from the females and fertilization was done by the dry method. Fertilized eggs were transferred to veis incubators and troughs. Incubation period for eggs differs and larvae hatch out after about 910 days at an average water temperature of 12.5 °C. Maintained at 13-14 °C, complete absorption of yolk sac in Shizothorax zarudnyi larvae occurred after 5-8 days. Larvae were fed with a mixture of powdered milk and egg yolk in this stage followed by decapsulated Artemia cysts and nauplii of Artemia and then on formulated starter diets used for carps. Because the ponds were not ready, larvae were maintained in troughs for about ten days before they were transferred to two 1200 m2 earthen ponds where they reached a body weight of about 1 g. They were then handed over to the Iranian Fisheries department in the region. Larvae were fed with the starter feed SFCO in the earthen ponds. About 350 thousand larvae were stocked in two earthen ponds. Based on the results of present study and other studies we may conclude that artificial breeding in Schizothorax can be successfully achieved at 14-16 ºC in flow through systems using hormone therapy (combination of GnRha and anti dopamine) and larvae could be easily cultured in earthen ponds. However this species exhibits lower growth rates as compared to carps its high expenses could have an important role in economical feasible.

    Description: The black lip pearl oyster Pinctada margaritifer is one of the three valuable species of pearl oyster for the cultured pearl industry of the world. Due to its high economical value, endangered species status in Persian Gulf, its historical and social importance, and the technical feasibility to produce pearl oysters seeds in hatchery, Persian Gulf Shellfish Research Center in northern part of Persian Gulf, Iran developed the spat production of this important species for the first time. Ten pairs of matured P. margaritifera broodstocks collected from the pearl oysters beds in Lavan Island, Persian Gulf during Jun-July 2004, were transferred to the hatchery at the Persian Gulf Shellfish Research Center. All the broodstocks were thoroughly brushed free of fouling organisms and washed with freshwater. The oysters subjected to thermal stimulation (temperature elevated from 20 °C to 30 °C). Around 70% of oysters spawned approximately after an hour. Fertilization was normal ranging between 97-98% and early larval development was viable. Six one-tone fiberglass tanks holding 1μ filtered and UV sterilized seawater with gentle aeration were used for culturing the larvae. Pure culture of three micro algae, Isochrysis aff galbana ,Chaetoceros calcitrans and Chaetoceros mulleri were used as diets. Feeding started with I. galbana and a combination of I. galbana and C. calcitrans from day 4 of rearing period. The initial larval density was 50 larvae/mL at D-Shape larval stage and reduced to 1 laravae/mL at later stages. The larvae reached to the D-Shape stage between 20-24 hours, Umbo stage on day 6-12, Eye-spot on day 17-21and Pediveliger and Plantigarad on day 22-30. Oyster Spats were settled on collectors after 32 days of rearing period. Survival rate was 70% at D-Shape stage, 60% for Umbo stage, 50% for Eye-spot and 30% for Spat. Total produced spat 123500 in two years and realized and transferred 23500 spat to sea.
