Aquaculture Non-Fish Species

Revised April 2022

Overview

Most non-fish species are not well suited to “closed” recirculating-type aquaculture production systems and tend to be raised in outdoor ponds or net pens.  Shrimp and some crayfish species are exceptions and in well-planned operations may be efficiently and economically raised in indoor recirculating systems.
