Rearing diets for winter flounder optimize weaning success in hatchery, wild
In hatchery feeding trials, winter flounder juveniles reared on white worms grew the most, while pellet-reared fish had the lowest growth and survival.

Flatfish conditioning for stock enhancement
Acclimation cages, the most implemented conditioning strategy for flatfish, are inexpensive and effective, but require site-specific adjustment. Live or lifelike diets show great potential in rearing stocked flatfish.
