Rock Lobster Enhancement and Aquaculture Subprogram: the feasibility of translocating rock lobsters in Tasmania for increasing yield
Translocation involves the shifting of undersize rock lobsters to new areas to increase productivity and/or quality of product. We modelled the translocation of rock lobsters from four original sites to four release sites with a range of growth rates.
Most model scenarios led to increases in...

Seafood CRC: quantifying physiological and behavioural responses of cultured abalone to stress events
It is desirable for any primary producer to understand the health and welfare of their stock. This will ultimately enable optimal production and return on investment. The challenge in any aquaculture system is ‘observing’ the physiological and behavioural responses associated with environment,...

Reassessment of intertidal macroalgal communities near to and distant from salmon farms and an evaluation of using drones to survey macroalgal distribution
The salmon farming industry has significantly expanded in South-eastern Tasmanian both in production and in number and location of farms. Along with this expansion has been an increasing concern from the general community about the effects of salmon farms on the environment. This includes a reported...

Development of an algal bloom monitoring buoy for the Australian aquaculture industry: proof of concept
A prototype of an automatic algal monitoring buoy was developed for unattended operation in shellfish and finfish farm waters. The instrument employs novel antifouling and self-calibration strategies (subject to a provisional patent ) based on a battery-powered actuator extending into the seawater...

Development of the tools for long term management of the giant crab resource: data collection methodology, stock assessment and harvest strategy evaluation
The project has developed tools for low cost assessment of the giant crab resource across southern Australia.
Stock assessment and management response is now increasingly based on biomass estimates from this project. Risk of poor management decisions is thus reduced, which...

Rock Lobster Post Harvest Subprogram: optimising water quality in rock lobster post-harvest processes
Rock lobsters can be exposed to poor water quality during all stages of handling and holding prior to going to market. Poor water quality reduces the time a lobster can be held alive and how many animals can be held in a system and thus may reduce profit. The quality of water can be assessed using...

Developing cost-effective industry based techniques for monitoring puerulus settlement in all conditions: Phase 2
Outcomes achieved to date
The outputs from this second phase of the project have led to the following outcomes:
1. A refined puerulus collector design that:
• Collects puerulus as effectively as traditional diver-serviced inshore collector systems
• Collects puerulus...
