Better days for marine fish species with Recirculating Aquaculture System by CMFRI The New Indian Express dated 30th January 2017

摘要

At a time when the amount of fish coming to the market has undergone a sharp decline, the Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) has come up with a new system to boost the seed production of commercially important marine fish species. It has launched Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS), which filters water inside the fish tank helping to reuse the water, at its Vizhinjam Research Centre last week. udThis is the first RAS in the state and the fourth in the country set up by CMFRI. The other three are in Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh, Mandapam in Tamil Nadu and karwar in Karnataka.udThe CMFRI unit in Vizhinjam has been involved in the breeding of ornamental fish at the facility. The institute says Vizhinjam is the best place in Kerala to launch RAS at present and it would consider opening more such units in other parts of the state.
