Reviews

This volume amply compiles the latest in research on percid biology and aquaculture. ... immensely valuable both for the context it provides and for the synopsis of reproductive biology, growth, behavior, bioenergetics modeling, nutritional requirements, and much more. For researchers and practitioners interested in the husbandry of percid species, this is an essential resource. ... the thorough and thoughtful discussion of many of these issues in this book are thought-provoking for aquaculturists interested in improving fish culture practices. (David D. Huff, The Quarterly Review of Biology, Vol. 92 (2), June, 2017)
