Abstract
While recirculating aquaculture systems for food animals are well defined in the literature, little information is available for the emerging production of high value marine ornamental species. These organisms typically require systems which operate within a narrow range of parameters compared to most food animals, and in addition to growth and survival issues, individual appearance of animals is critical to success. This paper is a general review of the primary design criteria parameters for the production of marine ornamental species in stable, oligotrophic, recirculating aquaculture systems.
