Abstract

Groupers are popular carnivorous fish in the global Live Reef Food Fish (LRFF) trade. The culture of some grouper species is being carried out around the world, and they have the potential to become an important aquaculture species because of high market price, consumer demand, good taste, fast growth, efficient feed conversion, and hardiness. Grouper is a high-value species like tiger shrimp and with the best aquaculture management practices, it is easier to culture without much operational difficulties. The pond culture of the fish is mostly developed in Southeast Asian countries, mainly because of high commercial value in the live markets particularly in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Taiwan. Orange spotted grouper, Epinephelus coioides is one of the important farmed grouper species. Coastal pond farming method was developed for orange-spotted grouper by ICAR – Central Marine Research Institute and various methods involved in coastal farming of the species are detailed below.
