A multi-species evaluation for fish-free aquafeeds
Fish-free aquafeeds trials demonstrate the feasibility of the complete removal of fishmeal and fish oil from the diets of the tested fish species.

Study quantifies the lysine requirement for Florida pompano on plant-based diets
Amino acid requirements need to be evaluated in Florida pompano diets involving more plant proteins, in order to create cost-efficient feeds.
Intelligence
Full speed ahead for Florida pompano RAS farm
While many attempts to farm Florida pompano have fallen short, Joe Cardenas is undaunted, confident that recirculating aquaculture systems are the key.

Evaluating dietary fish oil replacement in juvenile Florida pompano
Study evaluated production performance and tissue composition of juvenile Florida pompano fed diets containing fish oil or 25:75 blends of fish oil and various other lipid sources.
Health & Welfare
Captive reproduction, larviculture of Florida pompano
U.S. trials indicated wild-caught pampano could be feed trained and spawned in captivity via hormonal induction. Observations of fecundity, egg fertilization rates, and spawning frequency suggested that quantities of pompano seedstock could be produced over time. Although survival during test larviculture was low, the trials showed pompano larvae can be reared following standard commercial practices.
