The feasibility of hatchery and culture of Penaeus merguensis in Hormozgan province
Twelve peneus merguensis brood stocks with 36gr average weight were captured from Sirik fishing ground and stocked in two 6 tons ponds to study feasibility of propagation and culture of penaeus mergunsis in Hormozgan province. 415800 and 960000 naupli with 31% and 21.2% survival rate of pl15 were achieved in pond 1 and 2 respectively. Naupli were fed with chaetoceros, mysis and postlarvae with artemia. Three half hectare pond were stocked with pl15, eight per square and cultured for 150 days. Finally average weight in each pond was 10.1, 11.5, and 17.6gr respectively. Final product and survival rate in each pond was 730kg and 88percent, 598kg and 63 percent, 266kg and 19 percent respectively. The results showed that propagation of p.merguensis is feasible and it can be introduced as a culture species if suitable food is available.
