Health & Welfare
The establishment of land-based recirculating systems for cobia could expand production of the species. The authors, who demonstrated cobia are well suited for culture in tanks, conducted a study to compare the performance of cobia reared at different densities.
Responsibility
U.S. institutions are collaborating to evaluate low-energy recirculating aquaculture system designs to produce marine finfish in a low-salinity environment.
Health & Welfare
Collaborative research in Florida is developing technologies for rearing marine fish in low-cost, low-salinity recirculating systems. Spawning and larval production studies have led to the mass production of juveniles.
Health & Welfare
In a trial, rearing density affected the mean weight and weight gain of pompano, although differences between treatments became apparent toward the end of the study.
