Abstract

Around 1,250 hatchery produced pompano fingerlings was supplied to the local fisherman Mr. Nagadoss at Vethalai village, Ramnad district, Tamil Nadu. Initially he introduced the seeds in an artisanal pen, which was designed by him for the lobster fattening. It was observed that the pen which he was using for pompano stocking was a primitive one, mortality of around 700 fingerlings was reported during the period of three months; subsequently a participatory approach of artisanal cage farming by Mandapam Regional Centre was planned. An artisanal cage was fabricated at the centre with 6 × 6 m outer and 5 × 5 m inner square frame, which was made of 50mm GI pipe. The cage was floated on 1st March 2012 and subsequently 518 pompano fingerlings were transferred on 2nd March 2012. Pellet feeding was done once in a day.
