Aquaculture of groupers is carried out in tropical and subtropical areas throughout the world, but most production is from Asia, with three countries responsible for an estimated 92% of global production: China (65% of total production), Taiwan Province of China (17%) and Indonesia (11%). We calculate that there are at least 47 grouper species plus 15 grouper hybrids that have been trialled or are currently aquacultured. While grouper aquaculture has undoubtedly provided positive social and economic benefits to coastal communities in Asia, practices associated with grouper aquaculture have also led to widespread concerns regarding its environmental impacts. This paper reviews environmental, economic and social impacts of grouper aquaculture within a sustainability science framework. An update, building on early technical reviews of grouper aquaculture, was used to identify the main environmental, economic and social impacts. The main environmental impacts identified were as follows: seedstock sources, particularly the use of wild‐caught postlarval or juvenile fish as seedstock; the use of ‘trash’ fish as the major feed source; and water quality and substrate impacts of sea cage aquaculture. Significant economic and social impacts arising from grouper aquaculture include employment and income generation, but the economic impacts of disease outbreaks are significant, reducing fish survival to harvest size to around 50–70%. Current approaches to ameliorate negative impacts include the following: development and implementation of better management practices (BMPs) at national level, and the development of a global ecolabel certification scheme by the Aquaculture Stewardship Council. Both these approaches have significant constraints, particularly when applied to small‐scale farmers who produce the bulk of farmed grouper. We conclude that there is a need for improved higher level coordination between the major producer countries to address identified sustainability constraints to grouper aquaculture.

“…The density of P. annandalei in aquaculture ponds may be higher than 300 individuals per litre (Blanda et al, ). P. annandalei is considered as a promising live feed in aquaculture (Rayner et al, ; Rayner, Hwang, et al, ) as this species can tolerate a high variation in environmental conditions (Blanda et al, ). Especially, it has been shown that they can significantly enhance their highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFA) when cultured on a relatively HUFA‐poor microalgae (e.g., Tetraselmis chui —Rayner, Hwang, et al, ).…”

To determine the optimal food concentrations for the mass culture of the tropical copepod Pseudodiaptomus annandalei at relevant temperatures, we conducted three functional response experiments. In these experiments, we quantified the grazing rate via the faecal pellet production of adult males and females. They were fed for 6 hr on one of three commonly used microalgal species in aquaculture: Chaetoceros muelleri, Isochrysis galbana and Tetraselmis chui at concentrations of 12.5–3,200 μg C L−1 and three temperatures 25, 30 and 35°C. The number of pellets (PP) and the total volume of pellets (SPP) of both sexes increased rapidly with the increase in the microalgal concentrations until maximal pellet production (PPmax or SPPmax) was obtained, where females showed a consistently higher SPP than males. This pattern was similar for all three microalgal species. Males showed inconsistent PP and SPP in response to algae and temperatures. For females, they showed two clear patterns: a higher PP and SPP with increasing temperature from 25 to 30°C, then a lower PP and SPP at 35°C. Our study provides fundamental knowledge of pellet production to determine the food requirements of P. annandalei under different temperatures that are essential for designing the technical protocol for biomass culture.
