Abstract

It has long been a favorite of Asians. It is tasty, as fresh as the live reef foodfish trade can make it, and the story is familiar: declining catch from the wild led to an interest in its aquaculture. In central Philippines, self-acclaimed seafood capital of the country, at least four fish farmers are trying out red snapper culture in backyard sea cages and ponds. One farmer says fish growth is good but he worries about the market (red snapper is an expensive fish, and, being carnivorous, more expensive to raise, too).
