Amberjack in Aquaculture

Amberjacks (Seriola spp.) are emerging as a premier aquaculture candidate species worldwide due to their fast growth rates, excellent flesh quality, worldwide market availability, high consumer acceptability, and high market value.

There are 9 Seriola spp. found worldwide with Seriola dumerili (Greater Amberjack, Kanpachi in Japanese) being the most well-known, which has the most desirable flesh quality and taste and is known to be one of the most difficult to culture.

Amberjack is of great interest to the aquaculture sector because of its rapid growth (i.e., short time to market size) and large size makes this species very suitable for supplying many different markets worldwide.

Our Recent findings confirm that Farmed amberjack (from egg to harvest size) can reach 1 kg in about 8 months, given the proper culture conditions and nutrition.

Depending on the fish size and the part of the fish, in Japan, Korea, Taiwan (province of China), and Asia, in general, it is served as sashimi, sushi, carpaccio, bouillabaisse (especially in winter with more fat), grilled (salt or teriyaki), or fried with bread crumbs. In Europe, it is mainly prepared on BBQs, oven-cooked, sushi, and some smaller fish deep-fried.

We work with various R&I Companies, Institutes, Universities, and private companies for the development of Amberjack in various parts of the world.

Amberjack Farming Consultancy

We can develop a Turnkey project for the production of Seriola dumerili from egg production to 3kg fish.

We have all the product knowledge needed to design the farm operations, operate the farm and control the production.

The more recent development is the production protocols of Seriola dumerili from egg to fry.

The last 4 years we have developed a new technology for:

  • The production of high-quality viable eggs both in RAS and flow-through systems.
  • The production of healthy fry.
  • The proper nutrition requirements for all production stages.
  • RAS facilities required for the production of eggs and fry.
