    Abstract

    Silver Pompano, Trachinotus blochii is one of the ideal species suitable for brackish water aquaculture in earthen ponds as well as for Mariculture in sea cages, mainly due to its fast growth, good meat quality and high market demand. Apart from having a good taste and with fewer spines, Silver Pompano has high levels of Omega 3 fatty acids such as EPA and DHA in their meat. The Silver Pompano, also called as snub nose pompano is caught only sporadically in the commercial fishery and hence its availability is rather scarce
