What do you call a female fish filled with roe (or, how do you describe such a condition)? She isn't pregnant, since the eggs have not yet been impregnated ... Could someone answer on my talk page? Thanks, Slrubenstein | Talk 23:06, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Re:question for aquaculturalists

Hi there, I just stumbled across your question on talk:fish farming and talk:aquaculture. When full of eggs, female salmon are gravid. I don't know if anyone beat me to it, and if it's still any use to you now, but thought I'd leave you a note. Anilocra 21:37, 15 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Well done

The upper right-hand menu is nicely done. What great symmetry! And one can almost see a "fish". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.169.25.180 (talk) 17:58, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Controversy

I intergrated the pro-fish farm views in this section with the argument of those against fish farms. The previous editor provided some excellent information for the pro-fish farm view, but did not integrate it well with the rest of the text. I hope this editor, in using Wikipedia more, realizes that people on both sides of an issue need to work together to produce integrated and readable Wikipedia entries. --Simon.Pole 07:18, 26 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I do want to know about fish farm exactly and why it is a issue. Why people want to keep fish in their farm. --Youngwook.Lee 11:41, 11 Apr 2007 (NWMSU)

[edit] Open-Ocean Aquaculture

I am hoping that someone could start a section on Open-Ocean Aquaculture (OOA). It has been called the future of fish farming. It consists of a large floating cage that is anchored in the open ocean. Jotogo 14:29, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

|This type of aquaculture is covered to some extent in the Mariculture article, since it takes place in the ocean. Earthdirt 13:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help?

hi there..if possible, i really need an idea on how to lessen contamination...i culture nanno,and rotifer but there seems to be a problem...FILAMENTOUS ALGAE !! i'm doing fish farming with the intensive system (i'm new employee here).. is there anything i can do to uncontaminate the water?

your water filtering/re-circulating system... what are you equiped with? algae is very tough... UV has been shown to reduce algae outbreaks in culturing systems.

[edit] Transferring two sections from Aquaculture

For all of you who are watching this article:

A proposal has been put forth at Talk:Aquaculture#merging with the fish farming article to transfer two sections from Aquaculture to Fish farming. Please chime in if you feel so inclined. SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
