Progress in developing aquaculture methods for black sea bass is related to the concurrent study of culture requirements for the growout or “ongrowing” of captive wild stock. 

Study finds the number of sea lettuce species is much larger than previously known, with possible benefits for expanding aquaculture. 

Land-based aquaculture, perhaps the ultimate environmental risk-mitigation tool, was the talk of the town at the IntraFish Seafood Investor Forum. Once scoffed at for high capital and energy requirements, RAS now has a crowded bandwagon. 

European sea bass have been raised in the favorable climate of the Middle East since 2000. For effective larval rearing of sea bass, the authors recommend the use of temperature-controlled water with about 35 ppt salinity and good aeration in tanks. 

To both restore waterways and meet a growing demand for the so-called “foie gras” of the sea, researchers are stepping up efforts to restore green sea urchins. 

Cost-effective seedstock supply is needed for commercial production of sea urchins. Metamorphosis from free-swimming planktonic larvae to benthic grazers has presented a significant challenge. 

Studies at UNC-Wilmington found that growth and survival of black sea bass larvae were improved through supplementation of DHA and ARA in live feed. 

Fishmeal and fish oil replacements present a challenge for the aquafeed industry. The range of alternative protein and fat sources is limited, given multiple considerations. 

Selection strategies to improve Asian sea bass lines, development of elite lines, practical advice and considerations for further improvements. 

This study investigated the effect of various RAS water treatment designs on water and biofilm microbiota, survival, growth and gill health of lumpfish. 

University of Stirling research finds sea cucumbers can flourish by feeding on organic fish farm waste and subsequently be a high-value product. 

A research team has uncovered the reason why billions of snow crabs died in the eastern Bering Sea in 2021, closing the fishery for the first time. 

The causes and effects of harmful algal blooms have only been studied recently, as damage to the global aquaculture industry mounts. 

While sea cucumbers are one of the most prized seafoods in China and Asia, their production suffers from suboptimal juvenile production. The use of proper feeds and overall management in the nursery can improve yield and survival. 

Sea birds can spread viral, bacterial, fungal and protozoan diseases to shrimp farms, so future farm designs should take their presence into account. 

Sea bream fingerling producers have had to modify their facilities to grow larger animals by increasing tank volume and water flow. 

A lack of affordable and reliable Wi-Fi for crews jeopardizes their well-being and exposes them to exploitation and illegal fishing practices. 

In the second of a two-part series, Steven Summerfelt discusses various efforts to improve knowledge of closed-containment systems, innovations in fish feed and presents comprehensive concluding remarks.
