Abstract

Among the many high-value marine tropical finfish that could be farmed in India, the silver pompano, Trachynotus blochii is one of the topmost, mainly due to its fast growth rate, good meat quality and high market demand. The species is able to acclimatize and grow well even at a lower salinity of about 10 ppt and hence is suitable for farming in the vast low saline waters of our country besides it's potential for sea cage farming.
