2008/903 Understanding Yellowtail Kingfish



By Trent D'Antignana

 

 

This broad ranging project took a subproject approach to examine several issues that ultimately relate to product yield and quality attributes of farmed Yellowtail Kingfish (YTK) grown in sea cages. Within this project, the performance (survival and growth) of fish stocked into sea cages was assessed in regards to (a) fish size and water temperature at the time of transfer to the sea, and (b) environmental conditions (i.e. water temperature and dissolved oxygen levels) during grow out.
