“…The wide variety of native species inventoried in the present work demonstrates that Brazil is following the global trend of keeping diversified marine life in aquaria, which have caused increasing concern about the sustainability of reef ecosystems' exploitation (Wabnitz et al 2003, LeGore et al 2005, Calado 2006, LeGore et al 2008, Smith et al 2010, Murray et al 2012, Reynoso et al 2012, Rhyne et al 2012b.…”

Abstract:Brazil has an important role in marine ornamental trade, exploiting native species for both international and domestic market. A few works have previously assessed wild species exploited by the Brazilian marine aquarium industry and most of them focused solely on fish. Hence, the present paper intends to address an information gap regarding the species currently traded in the country, as well as concerning their conservation statuses. Thus, different sources of information were investigated and each species was categorized in accordance with existing lists of threatened species. A wide variety of native species was identified in Brazilian marine aquarium trade, including not only fish but also invertebrates, seaweeds and macrophytes. Some of these species were legally protected, but are still commerced anyway. Such illegal exploitation of native species causes increasing concerns about the sustainability of the activity. Therefore, in order to reduce environmental impacts caused by marine ornamental trade, Brazilian authorities should encourage the implementation of eco-fees, the purchase of eco-labeled aquarium products, the development of sustainable ornamental aquaculture and ecosystem-based management initiatives. Keywords: Marine aquarium fish, marine invertebrates, seaweeds, marine macrophytes, illegal trade, threatened species. Espécies nativas explotadas pela aquariofilia marinha no BrasilResumo: O Brasil possui um papel importante no comércio de ornamentais marinhos, utilizando espécies tanto para exportação como para o mercado interno. Poucos trabalhos anteriores descreveram as espécies nativas utilizadas pela indústria brasileira de aquarismo marinho, e a maioria deles era focada exclusivamente no uso de peixes. Assim, o presente trabalho almeja preencher a falta de informação em relação às espécies atualmente exploradas no país, bem como relativas às suas categorias de conservação. Dessa forma, diferentes fontes de informação foram investigadas e cada espécie foi categorizada de acordo com as listas de espécies ameaçadas existentes. Uma grande variedade de espécies foi identificada no comércio do aquarismo marinho brasileiro, o que inclui não somente peixes, mas também invertebrados, macroalgas e macrófitas. Algumas dessas espécies não poderiam ser exploradas, mas mesmo assim seguem sendo comercializadas. Essa utilização ilegal de espécies nativas provoca preocupações frequentes acerca da sustentabilidade dessa atividade. Desse modo, para reduzir os impactos ambientais causados pelo aquarismo marinho, as autoridades brasileiras deveriam incentivar a implementação de taxas-ecológicas, a aquisição de produtos de aquário com selos ecológicos, o desenvolvimento sustentável da aquacultura ornamental e iniciativas de manejo baseadas no ecossistema. Palavras-chave: Peixes de aquário marinho, invertebrados marinhos, macroalgas marinhas, macrófitas marinhas, comércio ilegal, espécies ameaçadas.

“…Esto contrasta con otras especies como Seriola dumerlii y Lutjanus guttatus (Laggis et al 2010, Rodríguez-Ibarra et al 2015) y las especies de la familia Sparidae como Sparus aurata, Dentex dentex, Diplodus sargus (Koumoundouros et al 1997(Koumoundouros et al , 1999(Koumoundouros et al y 2001b, las cuales presentan un desarrollo más lento en comparación con el pez payaso. Esta variabilidad de estados de la osteología de los peces que se presentan cuando eclosionan, depende de la cantidad de vitelo que contenga cada una de las especies, donde algunos inmediatamente al eclosionar ya empiezan a desarrollar sus estructuras, mientras que otros lo hacen varios días después de la eclosión (Hernández et al 2012).…”

“…Entre las especies más solicitadas y mejor cotizadas por los acuaristas está el pez payaso Amphiprion ocellaris (Cuvier, 1830), que pertenece a la familia Pomacentridae y quien agrupa a otras especies de ornato que son aproximadamente el 50% de las especies comercializadas, siendo el pez payaso una de las 10 especies de mayor demanda (Lango-Reynoso et al 2012). Actualmente, esta especie se está cultivando en las instalaciones de la Unidad Mazatlán del Centro de Investigación en Alimentación y Desarrollo (CIAD), obteniendo cosechas constantes de juveniles, los cuales son comercializados y al mismo tiempo se están realizando diversas investigaciones para mejorar su cultivo (Abdo de la Parra et al 2013, Velasco-Blanco et al 2016.…”

Abstract.-The osteological development of the vertebral column and the caudal complex of the clownfish Amphiprion ocellaris, an important ornamental species is described. The organisms were reared under controlled conditions from hatching until 30 days post hatch (DPH) and methods for the clearing and differential staining of bone and cartilage tissues were applied. At hatching time, most of the vertebral elements had developed in cartilage stage and the notochord in pre-flexion larvae; 11 neural arches were located in the abdominal region while 12 neural arches and 12 haemal arches were found in the caudal region. In the caudal complex, the hypurals were still separated from one another. On 6 DPH the notochord was in flexion stage and the ventral ribs were observed, while 12 neural spines and 12 haemal spines had developed in the caudal region and the hypurals were fused. The notochord was in the post-flexion stage on 11 DPH and the complex caudal completely formed with all the neural spines and haemal spines fully developed. At 23 DPH all structures had ossified. The vertebral column was divided in the abdominal region and comprised of 11 vertebrae while in the caudal region there were 15 vertebrae including the urostyle. Detailed information of osteological structures serve as a reference for the timely detection of malformations during clownfish aquaculture.

Cultivation of native fish in Mexico: cases of success

Aquaculture practice in Mexico is commonly carried out with some freshwater species, which are introduced in the region for its production, with technology developed in other countries. The growth of this activity has been slow, sometimes leading to loss of investments due to difficulties in the implementation of foreign technological packages, poor selection and inadequate management of the species, or farming sites, and even confusing legal procedures. Mexico stands out for the development of crops of exotic species more than native species, of which most are freshwater type. There are thirty‐four recorded species of freshwater fish, six of them are native and twenty‐eight are introduced species. The success of cultivating native species lies mainly in the process of selecting species with potential and certain characteristics. Mariculture is relatively new in Mexico; it has been intensibly developed, mostly in the north‐west of the country. It has a great potential due to the high commercial value of its species, excellent quality and demand in the market. Ornamental aquaculture is the most developed in Mexico; the main producer is the state of Morelos, with total technological expertise in production of introduced and native species. It should be noted that this success has been achieved, in some cases, with the support of projects from government institutions, universities, research centres, associations and private companies. Pointing out that the common factor for a successful aquaculture practice is an ecosystemic and sustainable approach, continuously improving practices and fish farming management, while complying with regulatory standards.
