OverviewAs traditional commercial fishing becomes increasingly expensive and restrictive, aquacultural fish production emerges as a practical viable alternative. This book is an introductory text and reference for information on the fresh-, brackish-, and salt-water farming of both fish and shellfish, as well as of several important algae. It incorporates all the feasibility data pertinent to farming aquacultural species in North America into one easy-to-use text. It should be useful not only by current and future aquaculturists, but also by fisheries, seafood company managers, biologists, teachers, and students. Details are provided for over a hundred individual speices, including not only those raised for human consumption, but also organisms reared for feed, bait, or other purposes.
