Description:This manual is designed to provide a comprehensive, hands- on reference to the procedures used to produce southern flounder ("Paralichthys lethostigma") fingerlings. It is meant to be a benchtop handbook for use in a working southern flounder hatchery, with step-by-step descriptions of hatchery procedures from egg production through the process of weaning to dry feeds, when the flounder reach a size of 3.5 cm, or 1.5 in. This is the size at which they are considered fingerlings and can be transported to growout tanks or sold to other growers. Procedures were developed for recirculating water treatment systems, but are also applicable to hatcheries with flow-through water. The book also addresses economics and provides references for even more detailed methodologies.
