    Abstract

    The indigenously developed Recirculatory Aquaculture System (RAS) of the ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute was dedicated to the nation by Dr. A Gopalakrishnan, Director, ICAR-CMFRI at the Visakhapatnam Regional Centre of ICAR-CMFRI today. The RAS is a culture system for rearing marine finfish in controlled conditions with minimum use of water and efficient management practices. This is the first time a RAS has been indigenously developed and standardized for rearing fish seeds of average 0.5 gm size. Fully developed and standardized at Visakhapatnam Regional Centre of ICAR-CMFRI, this RAS system is economical for Indian mariculture as it can produce a fish seed of 12 gm at only Rs. 11.20. Earlier, a RAS system had been developed at the Centre for broodstock development and breeding by recirculating the water used, thereby minimizing the wastage of this precious resource.
