Abstract: -Among warm-water marine fishes, cobia is one of the best aquaculture candidate species in the world.Currently there are commercial culture operations in several Asian countries and the industry has started developing elsewhere, including the Western Central Atlantic region. Significant research has been conducted at the University of Miami's Aquaculture Program / University of Miami Experimental Hatchery (UMEH) during the last eight years, involving research to develop and optimize advanced technology to demo… Show more

“…Fish is an excellent source of protein, due to the essential amino acids and protein content between 15 and 25% (Zhou et al, 2004). Among warm-water marine fishes, cobia (R. canadum) is one of the best aquaculture candidate species in the world (Benetti et al, 2010). Cobia is a marine fish native to Brazil, neritic and with migratory behavior and is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters of all oceans, except the Central and Eastern Pacific.…”

“…Cobia is a marine fish native to Brazil, neritic and with migratory behavior and is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical waters of all oceans, except the Central and Eastern Pacific. Cobia does have favorable characteristics to be qualified such as high rates of growth, good feed conversion, and adaptation to environmental captivity, low mortality, high market value as well as excellent meat quality (Benetti et al, 2010;Coriolano and Coelho, 2012).…”

“…The expansion of cobia culture has been supported by the development and optimization of protocols and techniques for broodstock management, reproduction in captivity and larviculture. However, in spite of these advances, final survival during larviculture is still low, ranging from 5 to 38% (Benetti et al 2010). Both cannibalism and diseases are important factors in survival of larvae and they also threaten production.…”

“…The quality of the flesh, fertility, fast growth and relative ease for reproduction and larviculture has made it attractive for the industry. Cobia aquaculture has expanded from 3 t in 1995 to over 40 000 t in 2010 (FAO 2012), and at present it is cultivated in at least 15 countries in Asia, America and Oceania (Benetti et al 2010). In Colombia, cobia culture began in 2007 and by 2011 total production reached 110 t. The Colombian Aquaculture Research Center (CENIACUA) adapted and developed procedures for maturation and reproduction in captivity and over the past 3 yr it produced and reared larvae to supply the Colombian industry.…”
