Asian sea bass Lates calcarifer culture
Phylum : Chordata
Clas : Pisces
Order : Percomorphi
Family : Centropomidae
Genus : Lates
Species : Lates calcarifer
(Bloch, 1970)
INTRODUCTION
• Asian seabass is also called as giant perch (centropomidae) and in India it is
called as “Bhetki”.
• Highly euryhaline habit enables culture in F W & S W condition & living in
estuaries.
• Distribution: found in the littoral water of indo- West Pacific region extending
from Iran to Australia, its profitable culture carried out in SEA countries
especially in Thailand & Taiwan.
Conti,,,
• Hatchery production of Bhetki fry industry established in Thailand, its excess
fry exporting to other countries also in Taiwan.
• Dr. Thirunavukarasu said that today the sea bass production in the India was
only 25,000 tonne.
• CIBA supplied us 10,000 sea bass fishlings free of cost, and we were able to
sell 3,600 of them after three months for Rs. 47,500.
CONTINUE…
Major problems during Bhetki culture are,
1. Predominant cannibalistic during young stages (1-20 g).
2. Its depends on high protein rate or on trash fish which is staple diet of poor in
developing countries.
3. Unpredictable wild fry availability, in India fry availability abundant in East
coast than West coast.
Importance: In shrimp farmers turning to next most lucrative finfish sp. Lates
calcarifer & other sp.
ASIAN SEA BASS CULTURE CYCLE
Nursery rearing of Bhetki fry
• Rearing carried out in earthen ponds, concrete tanks or cages.
• Earthen ponds: range 500-2000 m, water depth 50-80 cm and 1 mm screen
mesh fitted to inlet & outlet gates to protect fry.
• Concrete nursery: usually 300 m2 with muddy bottom & water column of 1
m. Aeration by bubbling air through a blower.
• Floating or stationary net cages: with 1 mm mesh (size rise with fish). Nursery
size range 3 to 10 m3 easily installed and maintained in rivers, coastal areas or
in large ponds in calm water areas free from pollution & menace of biofoulers.

• In Thailand, nursery ponds reared size from 1-2.5 cm to fingerling 5-10 cm.
• Prior to 2 or 3 weeks stocking newly hatched Artemia nauplii inoculated in to
pond @ 0.1g/m2. Artemia nauplii grow to adult within 2 weeks.
• Bhetki fry stocked @20-50/m2 best alternative feed to fry finally chopped or
ground trash fish @ 100% of fish biomass, twice/day in 1st week & gradually
reduced to 60% in 2nd and to 40% in 3rd week.

BHETKI GROW OUT IN PONDS
• Has vague for > 80 years in south east Asia & Australia carried out in mono or poly culture.
Monoculture of Bhetki in ponds: Prior to stocking ponds prepared by sun drying bottom, applying
quick lime @ 800-2000 kg/ha and OM @ 300-400 kg/ha.
• Rice bran will apply @ 300-350 kg/ha, dilute night soil @ 15 tonnes/ha then pond will filled with
brackish water (5-10 ppt), 2m depth.
• Secchi disc reading 30 cm in pond water.
• Fingerlings 5-6 cm stocked @ 10000-40000/ha fed with fresh trash fish or tilapia <200g size @ 10%
biomass in grow out pond.
• Yield 10mt/ha. Avg. market size 600g within 4-5 months and 6-7 months in winter in Taiwan with
80% survival.
• Bhetki with tilapia is best choice as primary crop in poly culture common in
Thailand &SEA countries.
• Tilapia brood Stock 5000-10000/ha introduced ratio of 1:3 ( M:F) breed after

Asian sea bass culture
conclusion
• Sea bass near surface swimming has been expected to as it hungerness it may
be due to some other impairment may lead to over feed wastage and higher
feed cost.
• it is one of major best suited candidate species and few reports from fish
farmers from India successfully cultured earned higher profits.
• Asian seabass & tilapia best suited in combination with size stage diff erent
stocking its early stage require highly animal flesh freshly.
