Trial Finds Biomass Harvest Of Cobia Unaffected By Stocking: Density In RAS

摘要

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. They found cobia can be reared at 10 to 30 kg/m~3 with high survival. There was no significant difference in survival, weight gain, feed conversion or body composition for fish raised at the different densities.
