  • Ecosystem Services Generated by Fish Populations
    AR-211 Ecological Economics 29 (1999) 253 –268 ANALYSIS Ecosystem services generated by fish populations Cecilia M. Holmlund *, Monica Hammer Natural Resources Management, Department of Systems Ecology, Stockholm University, S-106 91, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract In this paper, we review the role of fish populations in generating ecosystem services based on documented ecological functions and human demands of fish. The ongoing overexploitation of global fish resources concerns our societies, not only in terms of decreasing fish populations important for consumption and recreational activities. Rather, a number of ecosystem services generated by fish populations are also at risk, with consequences for biodiversity, ecosystem functioning, and ultimately human welfare. Examples are provided from marine and freshwater ecosystems, in various parts of the world, and include all life-stages of fish. Ecosystem services are here defined as fundamental services for maintaining ecosystem functioning and resilience, or demand-derived services based on human values. To secure the generation of ecosystem services from fish populations, management approaches need to address the fact that fish are embedded in ecosystems and that substitutions for declining populations and habitat losses, such as fish stocking and nature reserves, rarely replace losses of all services. © 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.

That one’s huge! Whoa, that’s a monster! That one has my name on it!” These were just a few of the many excited comments heard by Urban Fishing biologists as the extra-large incentive trout were delivered to 20 of the Urban Fishing Program lakes on January 9. The special loads of bigger fish and more fish captured the attention of anglers and other park visitors and sent them scrambling for their cameras, cell phones and poles. None of the many 2 to 8 pound beauties have been officially reported for Big Fish honors yet. But, two reports have come in about huge trout from Peoria and Surprise. On January 10 an estimated 8 pounder was caught from Rio Vista Lake and the same day a 6.5 pounder was reeled in from Surprise Lake. No word yet on the 10 pounder our Colorado fish supplier promised. 2008 URBAN FISHING BIG FISH RECORD WINNERS Topping the list of 2008 Urban Program Big Fish-of-the-Year official winners was a 10.2 pound channel catfish caught and kept by Shay Denniston from Lakeside Lake in Tucson. Another huge catch from the Catch and Release category was a 35-inch white amur cranked in by Andrew Schmidt at Red Mountain Lake in Mesa.

  • Perfect Stocking Density Ensures Best Production and Economic Returns in Floating Cage Aquaculture System Farhaduzzaman AM1, Md

Abu Hanif2,3*, Md. Suzan Khan1, Mahadi Hasan Osman1, Md. Neamul Hasan Shovon1, Md. Khalilur Rahman3, Shahida Binte Ahmed3 1Fisheries and Livestock Unit, Palli Karma-Sahayak Foundation, Bangladesh; 2Department of Fisheries Biology and Genetics, Patuakhali Science and Technology University, Bangladesh; 3Fisheries and Livestock Unit, Grameen Jano Unnayan Sangstha, Bangladesh ABSTRACT A density dependent research was conducted on Oreochromis niloticus to determine the growth performance, body composition, survivability, yield and financial returns in floating cage fish culture system in a tributary of Tetulia River, Bhola. Juvenile monosex tilapia with an average weight of 40.2 g were stocked in 5 floating net cages at a density of 1000 (C1), 1200 (C2), 1500 (C3), 1800 (C4) and 2000 (C5) respectively. Fish were fed with a commercial floating feed twice daily in all the treatments. After 120 days, growth in terms of body final length and weight, weight gain, percent weight gain, specific growth rate, daily weight gain, gross and net production of fish were calculated and found C3 were comparatively higher than others. Survival rate was decreased with increasing stocking density. According to cost benefit analysis (CBA), stocking density 1200 per cage was the most suitable but it should not rise more than 1500 per cage for commercial monosex tilapia culture in cage aquaculture system.
