Abstract

tropical finfish that could be farmed in India, the silver pompano, Trachinotus blochii is one of the topmost, mainly due to its fast growth rate, good meat quality and high market demand. The silver pompano is caught only sporadically in the commercial fishery and hence its availability is rather scarce. It is a much sought after species and hence the demand can only be met through aquaculture. The aquaculture of pompano has been successfully established in many Asia-Pacific countries like Taiwan and Indonesia.
