PREFACE

The present trend in fish culture is to develop better technology towards higher yields and faster growing fish, using less space and less water exchange rates. Implicating in the need to a stronger understand on fish biology processes and its adaptable physiology. This symposium focus on methods of incorporating knowledge on how different fish species, their biology, and physiology can be applied and used for a better management and augmenting fish culture production towards the increasing necessity of food (fisheries) production, environmental awareness, and sustainability.
