Study: Helping young fish see at night makes them grow faster
Excerpt
In Asian countries including the Philippines, the culture of pompano has been conducted in open sea cages, brackishwater cages and in ponds. However, a few challenges, such as the high cost of production, still hamper the widespread farming of pompano. Experts at the Aquaculture Department of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center (SEAFDEC/AQD) are literally working through the night to find ways to make pompano farming more profitable. Ma. Irene Legaspi, associate researcher at SEAFDEC/AQD, is investigating the advantages of lighting up pompano cages at night during the nursery phase.
