Description:Studies of juvenile black sea bass, "Centropristis striata", address questions concerning the biological feasibility of aquaculture of "C. striata." Sub-adult "C. striata" were subjected to six ration treatments for 18 weeks. Ration treatments consisted of a high-protein trout feed, a lower protein trout feed, and an equal mixture of both. There were no significant differences in mean fish weight among treatments. Based on cost effectiveness, the lower protein ration was judged the optimum choice. This study reinforces the biological feasibility of rearing trapped "C. striata" on a commercial diet of 2% dry weight feed/wet weight fish.
