Gracilariopsis heteroclada as an extractive species in an aquaculture system
Share
Abstract
The study was conducted within the integrated finfish broodstock facility complex of SEAFDEC/AQD at Tigbauan, Iloilo, Philippines. The broodstock facility has a water recirculating system. The 500-ton capacity broodstock/spawning tanks were stocked with 25 grouper (Epinephelus coioides) and 90 milkfish (Chanos chanos) breeders. Water from the broodstock tanks passes through the sedimentation tank, then through the filter tank before it goes back to the broodstock tanks. The filter tank has an area of 20 m2, a water depth of 25 cm, and a water flow rate of 43 L sec-1 (≈3720 m3 day-1).
