| Tilapia is a fish that has been raised for centuries with little
fanfare. In recent years with the worldwide emergence of aquaculture,
increased attention is being focused on tilapia because of its superior
culture possibilities. Reportedly more than one 1 billion pounds of Tilapia
were raised last year. These fish are ideally suited for aquaculture because
they are disease-resistant, reproduce easily, feed efficiently, and can
tolerate poor water conditions. Tilapia can be successfully grown in brackish
water and some species can adapt to full strength sea water. Tilapia are
members of the Cichlid family and are native to Africa. In many developing
countries, tilapia are raised in ponds, cages and rice fields. Tilapia
can also be grown in intensive culture systems, with corresponding greater
investment cost. Tilapia produce mild, soft, white fish fillets, with a
slightly sweet taste. These superior qualities make Tilapia a culinary
delight, whether served in an expensive restaurant or prepared simply for
home consumption.

new hybrids with special characteristics. We provide consulting as well
as sales of species developed in-house. The TAI® system is ideal for
educational and commercial use.

Tilapia Association. This Web page provides access to information about
the
fish which is the fastest growing aquaculture crop in the United States
and around the world. We are pleased to provide this information
to those already producing tilapia for the food industry, for those interested
in joining the industry and to potential customers and consumers of farm-raised
tilapia.

Tilapia: http://www.ag.auburn.edu/dept/faa/tilap.html
| Tilapia are native to Africa, but have been introduced in many countries
around the world. They are disease-resistant, reproduce easily, eat
a wide variety of foods and tolerate poor water quality with low dissolved
oxygen levels. Most will grow in brackish water and some will adapt to
full strength sea water. These characteristics make tilapia suitable for
culture in most developing countries. They are most often grown in ponds,
cages and rice fields. A brief guide listing characteristics for the important
tilapia species is included at the end of this manual.
Tilapia: http://www.shadow.net/~wweinkle/TILAPIA.HTM
| Tilapia have been cultivated for centuries in various parts of the
world.
Tilapia & Environment: http://www.american.edu/ted/TILAPIA.HTM
| There are some serious trade-offs in aqualculture, evident in
the case of tilapia, one of a handful of fish breeds that are seen as being
the future of freshwater aquaculture. The species is highly carnivorous
and its continued large-scale introduction could contribute to the extinction
of less aggressive, indigenous fish throughout the world. As aquaculturists
recognize this and research universities and institutes like the Consultative
Group on International Agricultural Research are experimenting
with better techniques and hybrids, development agencies such as USAID
and the World
Bank continue to push for the spread of tilapia throughout the
world. Tilapia is now being farmed in more than 85 countries. A lack of
international and industry-wide regulation, coupled with real food needs
and implementing agencies' relative lack of concern over species loss could
mean that the destructive fish wins out in a perhaps unnecessary trade-off
between environmental, economical, and food concerns.
Tilapia in TX: http://overton.tamu.edu/htmsub/tilapia.html
| Though not well known in the United States, Tilapia rank second
worldwide in freshwater fish production. Tilapia have many advantages.
They don't develop an off flavor if fed the wrong feed or if water quality
is poor, as do catfish. They don't have a fishy taste, like buffalo or
other fish that can tolerate poor water quality. With thick, flat bodies,
they filet out and taste quite a bit like perch. And being vegetarians
and not predator fish, they won't eat the fry of other species in the pond.

Tilapia feed: http://ag.arizona.edu/azaqua/philippines/clsu.htm
| The University of Arizona and Central Luzon State University
are conducting a multi-year project to develop low cost feeds for tilapia
aquculture in the Philippines. The techniques developed will benefit
tilapia farmers as the investigators and students involved with the project
work with Arizona and Filipino farmers and test diets at commercial producers.
The first phase of the project was to purchase a pellet mill to improve
the quality of test feeds made at the Freshwater Aquaculture Center at
CLSU, the premier aquaculture research facility in the Philippines. The
second part of the study is to test diets incorporating various substitutes
for fish meal in hopes of finding cost effective diets.
Tilapia ND: http://www.ext.nodak.edu/extpubs/alt-ag/tilapia.htm
| Tilapia can survive on a diversity of food. Algae is probably
their most common food in the wild. On fish farms they are fed a high-protein
pelleted feed. When raised in a controlled environment they can achieve
growth rates of up to 3 percent of body weight per day, but 2 percent is
a more likely average. The fish is efficient and should gain about one
pound for every 1.5 pounds of food. Tilapia fingerlings are typically purchased
at a weight of 0.07 of an ounce. They are marketed at 1* to 1* pounds at
6 months of age. Tilapia are fed commercially available pelleted fish
food which costs approximately $.23 per pound. They can be fed by hand
or with a sprinkler mechanism, and are generally fed twice per day. Tilapia
are generally quite hardy and readily adapt to new environments. Death
loss of 10 percent is common until the fingerlings weigh about 1.0 ounce.
Death loss of 0.5 percent from 1.0 ounce to selling weight is common.
