Clean Seas Tuna is the largest commercial hatchery producer of Yellowtail Kingfish fingerlings in Australia. Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749). The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749). The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Clean Seas Tuna is the largest commercial hatchery producer of Yellowtail Kingfish fingerlings in Australia. Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749).

The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749). The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Clean Seas Tuna is the largest commercial hatchery producer of Yellowtail Kingfish fingerlings in Australia. Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749).

The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749). The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Clean Seas Tuna is the largest commercial hatchery producer of Yellowtail Kingfish fingerlings in Australia. Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749).

The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.

Following three years of research (2007-2010) into larval rearing issues, the company still experienced variability in results between the two hatcheries, Port Augusta and Arno Bay, between runs within hatcheries, and between individually stocked larval tanks (even those stocked from the same egg batch).  2009 was particularly challenging compared to the previous two years with an increase in skeletal malformations (jaw deformity from 20-25% to > 50%), decrease in survival (from >10% to 8%), and decrease in swimbladder inflation (from 99% to 80%). This 1 year project built on and applied, at a commercial scale, the results of the previous projects (SfCRC 2007/718 and 2009/749). The project was designed to support improved Standard Operating Procedures and test promising alternative rearing conditions, identified in previous research (especially temperature and artificial light), at a medium-scale in Arno Bay and Proof-of-Concept (commercial-scale) in both hatcheries. Funding was requested to invest in skilled personnel, upgrade systems, support key national collaboration, and provide operational costs at partner organisations.
