AKUATROP’s Marine Hatchery is located at the back of AKUATROP main office. This marine hatchery is
fully equipped with continuous seawater supply, aeration system, various culture tanks of multiple sizes,
aquariums, generator set back-up system and other hatchery facilities. Marine Hatchery is divided into four
units and they are:

• Re-circulating Aquaculture System Unit (RAS)

This unit consists of a few units of re-circulating systems to culture grouper and other species. This unit is
equipped with protein skimmer system, UV light, aeration system, water supply (marine and freshwater), and
fiber tanks for culture.

• Crustaceans Unit

Crustaceans Unit was built in order to fulfill the demand of AKUATROP’s expanding research area. A semi-
closed hatchery was built equipped with more than 20 culture tanks, sand filtration system, water supplies and
blower for continuous aeration.

• Marine Ornamental Units

There are two marine ornamental units in AKUATROP Hatchery. These two units are used for culturing
various marine ornamental organisms for research purposes. Some of the species cultured in these units are
anemone, clown fish various species and corals. These units are fully equipped with glass aquariums, re-
circulating water system, water supply, freezer, aeration, and other facilities.

• Seaweed and Abalone Unit

In this unit, the area was designed to fulfill the need in culturing abalone and seaweed. There are fiber tanks,
aquariums with racks, filtration systems, continuous aeration supply and water supply.
Sand filtration system, water reservoir tank and UV light.

Aeration system and generator set back-up system.

Freshwater Hatchery

This hatchery is also known as Malaysian Mahseer Hatchery or Kelah Hatchery which is located near to the
Netloft Unit. This hatchery was built with 9 concrete tanks for broodstocks culture. These concrete tanks were
equipped with recirculating water system, UV light and two sand filtration system to ensure clean water supply.

This hatchery has eight units of raceways for nursing the Malaysian Mahseer larvae, six units of fiberglass
tanks, grower concrete tanks with sand filtration system, UV light and a number of tanks for quarantine and
sampling activity. This hatchery also have two chiller units for cold water supply, water supply tanks, two unit
blower for continuous aeration, and one unit of generator set backup system. In order to accommodate more
research, AKUATROP is now building a nursing area which will be equipped with nursing tanks, filtration
system, water supply, aeration supply and other necessary facilities.

Species
COLDWATER SPECIES

Brook Trout

Also called “squaretail” or “speckled trout,” the brook trout requires well-oxygenated cold water, 68 degrees or
less. It can be found in meadow brooks, rivers, streams and ponds. The brookie is easily caught with flies
or small spinners. Earthworms are the most effective live bait.

Due to the low levels of nutrients in the water bodies housing brookies, they are short-lived and rarely exceed 6
inches in length. Sixty remote ponds are stocked with fingerling brook trout and are managed for put-grow-and-
take. It is possible to catch a 4-pound trout in some of these ponds, due to the light fishing pressure they receive.

Rainbow Trout

The rainbow trout thrives best in cold water, but can withstand temperatures up to 77 degrees if the water is
well aerated. This species is well adapted to lakes and streams. Any trout fishing method can be used to catch
rainbows. Spinners, flies, small spoons and bait are effective. The usual size of rainbows found in streams
and ponds is between 6 and 12 inches and less than one pound. In larger lakes, however, 3-5 pound
rainbows can be caught.

Brown Trout
Temperatures between 65 and 70 degrees are best for brown trout. They are found in deep, quiet pools or in the
lower sections of streams that are slower moving and usually warmer.
In New Hampshire, brown trout are usually between 7 and 14 inches and weigh less than one pound.
However, it is not uncommon to find fish that weigh between 2 and 4 pounds. After reaching about 12 inches,
they feed almost solely on baitfish during twilight and nighttime hours. Live bait, spinners and flies fished at
dusk are equally effective on brown trout.

Landlocked Salmon

The landlocked salmon was originally an ocean fish that became trapped in inland lakes. They are stocked in
larger lakes, and prefer water temperatures in the mid-50s. During summer, landlocked salmon are usually
found 40 feet below the surface, where it’s cold.

Early spring and late September are the best times to catch salmon. In the spring, they follow smelt when these
bait fish spawn. During the day, salmon cruise the shallow water of the lake near stream mouths. In the fall,
salmon swim upstream to spawn. Salmon can be caught on streamer flies trolled close behind a boat at a rapid
pace. Trolled spoons, wobblers and sewn-on bait are also excellent.

Lake Trout

The lake trout is prized as a game fish, mainly because of its size and power. Fish weighing between 3 and 6
pounds are caught regularly, and individuals as large as 10 pounds are not uncommon. The ideal temperature
for lake trout is near 50 degrees, so they’re usually found on or near the bottom of the water body.

Winter ice fishing on New Hampshire’s big lakes centers around bobhouse colonies. Jigging with lures or cut
sucker bait are effective ways of catching lakers through the ice. In early spring, just after “ice out,” they are
generally taken by trolling near the surface with spoons or wobblers and natural bait, such as shiners or suckers.
In summer, troll deep with wire or lead-core lines or downriggers, with sewn-on bait or spoons.

Whitefish

Two species of whitefish, or shad, are found in a few New Hampshire lakes: the lake whitefish and round
whitefish. The lake whitefish typically inhabits deep, clear, cold lakes. The round whitefish (right, above)
does well in cold lakes, but in shallower water.

Lake whitefish (right, below) can be taken almost any time of year, though most fishing is done through the ice.
Summer or winter, the usual method is by baiting the location with chum (cut-up fish) several days before
fishing, then bobbing a light sinker and small hook baited with a piece of cut-up fish near the bottom.
During ice out, lake whitefish may be taken with flies at the surface.

WARMWATER SPECIES

Smallmouth Bass

All bass are spring spawners, with nest-building occurring in mid-May when the water temperatures are in the
high 50s and low 60s. Spawning smallmouths are found in areas with gravel and boulder bottoms. In the
summer, they will stay in deeper water than largemouths because they like the cooler temperatures. Look
for smallmouths along rocks near drop-offs. On summer nights, smallmouths will head to shallow water
looking for crayfish.
Several methods may be used to take smallmouths, including fly casting with floating bugs, and trolling or
casting with a plug or spinner. The most common and successful method is still-fishing with live bait, such as
worms, minnows, hellgrammites and crayfish. Fall brings them back into shallower water, which awakens a
drive to eat and put on weight for the winter.

Largemouth Bass

Largemouth bass thrive best in warm, shallow, mud-bottomed lakes, ponds or streams with plenty of weeds. It
is a solitary fish. Most of its time is spent lurking among aquatic vegetation, beneath an overhanging branch or
under a brush-covered bank, waiting for prey to swim by. Its diet consists of frogs and bait fish, though
almost anything can become a meal: snakes, mice, snails and worms.

Not as spectacular a fighter as the smallmouth, the largemouth is best caught by fishing the open places among
lily pads, around sunken logs or stumps or along a stream bank. Surface poppers and plastic worm lures
probably take most bass, but live minnows and crayfish, artificial flies and streamers, and trolled lures will all
work.

Pickerel

Any quiet, shallow water with a mud bottom, an abundance of aquatic vegetation and food fishes is ideal for the
chain, or Eastern, pickerel. Their optimum water temperature is apparently 80 to 90 degrees. Pickerel like
to hide in weeds waiting for a meal to swim by.

The chain pickerel is a voracious carnivore. Its diet includes golden shiners, brown bullheads, yellow perch and
sunfish. The pickerel’s popularity peaks during the winter, when considerable numbers are taken with ease
through the ice. Most ice anglers fish with a “tip-up” device, using a live minnow. Pickerel fishing in open
water is also profitable. Trolling, still fishing with a live minnow or frog, or spincasting with plugs, spinners or
spoons all produce good results.

Horned Pout

The horned pout, also known as “brown bullhead,” is found chiefly in small lakes, ponds and the sluggish parts
of streams and rivers. It also inhabits large lakes, where it is most abundant in sheltered bays.
A horned pout prefers a mud bottom, but does well with or without vegetative growth. It is a hardy fish and
can survive extreme conditions that cause other fish to perish, such as water temperatures of 90 degrees and
oxygen levels as low as one part per million.

The horned pout can be caught by any angler, skilled or unskilled, using most any type of tackle. Earthworms
are probably the most common bait. Live minnows, crayfish, corn kernels, hellgrammites and dough balls are
also good, if fished near the bottom. Fishing in the evening, at night or early morning hours is usually best. <

White Perch

The white perch is a determined fighter when hooked, and is one of our tastier and more popular panfishes. It is
an easy fish to catch and will accept most any kind of bait: worms, live minnows, pork rind, artificial flies,
and spoons. White perch fishing is best at dusk, when schools of feeding fish tend to move into shallow
water near shore. This fish, unfortunately, often becomes overcrowded and stunted in fresh water. Handle these
fish with care; the spines on the back are sharp.

Northern Pike

The northern pike is a fast-growing, voracious predator that is highly prized as a sport fish. They can only be
found in a few select water bodies in the state.
A northern pike, like the pickerel, eats other fish. As the pike gets bigger, other animals, such as frogs,
ducklings, and even small muskrats, are also consumed. Although the northern pike prefers cooler waters than
the pickerel, both fish are usually found in quiet, shallow, weedy areas. Northern pike are generally fished in the
same manner as chain pickerel.

Walleye

Both lakes and streams serve as walleye habitat. It thrives best in clean water and prefers areas with a firm
bottom, such as gravel or bedrock. It is a nocturnal fish, moving onto sandbars or rocky shoals at night to
feed and remaining in deeper water during the day.

Walleye are found only in select New Hampshire water bodies, and are prized by successful anglers. Fishing
methods include still fishing with live minnows or by trolling or casting almost any artificial lure, spoon,
spinner or minnow and spinner combination. The most productive fishing is generally in the evening and early
morning.

Black Crappie

Introduced recently to New Hampshire, black crappies are found in few bodies of water, mostly in the southern
part of the state. It inhabits quiet, weedy areas of lakes, ponds and streams. As its range grows, the crappie is
becoming an important panfish in New Hampshire. Small jigs fished in open water or through the ice are
successful crappies lures.

Bluegill

Not a New Hampshire native, the bluegill, sometimes called “kibbee,” has extended its range into the Granite
State. The bluegill is at home in quiet, warm, weedy waters similar to those inhabited by other sunfish,
such as the pumpkinseed.
This is a much esteemed and highly valued panfish throughout much of its range. Like other sunfish, the
bluegill is easily caught with simple tackle. Small flies, panfish poppers, and live bait such as grubs and worms
all work well.

Yellow Perch

Yellow perch are a schooling fish and can be located in relatively shallow, weedy water. They spawn in April or
early May in sheltered coves and backwaters. These fish feed mainly on small aquatic insects, crustaceans
and small fishes.
They are not difficult to catch and can be taken year round. In the summer, an artificial fly, spinning lure,
trolling spoon and live minnow work well. In winter, the tip-up or handline with live minnows are good
methods for catching yellow perch. Fishing for yellow perch is fun and encouraged. They often compete with
game fish for habitat and need to be harvested to keep numbers manageable.

SALTWATER SPECIES

Striped Bass

This migratory fish moves north during the spring and back southward during the fall, spending roughly the
months of May through October feeding in the Great Bay area. Stripers caught in New Hampshire range
from 10 to more than 50 inches in length, and can weigh in excess of 50 pounds.
Striped bass can be taken from shore or from a boat, by casting, trolling, drifting or fly-fishing. Striped bass
fishing is especially good during an evening or early morning tide, as stripers are nocturnal feeders.
Live or natural baits are effective, especially live eels, pogies (menhaden), and chunks of mackerel, squid or
herring. An 8- to 10-foot surf rod and reel spooled with 30-pound test, or a medium to heavy spinning rod with
12- to 20-pound test line is preferable, depending on fishing location.

Effective lures include the spoons, poppers, lead-head jigs and swimming plugs. Popular flies include streamers
that look like bait fish. A particularly good one is Lefty’s Deceiver.

Bluefish

Bluefish run in schools. When you catch one, you often will catch several more soon afterwards. During the
summer, large schools of adults migrate up into the Gulf of Maine. The best time to catch bluefish in New
Hampshire waters is from the late July to the early September. Most bluefish caught here range between 18
and 36 inches, although occasionally anglers may encounter a school of “snapper blues” (young fish less than
12 inches).

Bluefish are caught by anglers fishing in Great Bay and its tributaries, along the coast and at the Isles of Shoals.
Fly-fishing, spinning or trolling with bait are all good methods for catching bluefish. When spin-fishing, a
medium- to heavy-duty rod with 10- to 40-pound test line is recommended. Regardless of the equipment or the
technique, wire leaders are a must: bluefish have sharp teeth which can easily cut through most monofilament
lines.

Swimming lures and drifted bait are effective for catching bluefish. Chunks of pogies (menhaden), mackerel,
herring and live eels are good baits. Effective artificial lures for casting or trolling include poppers, spoons and
plugs. Effective flies include Clouser minnows and foam-bodied poppers.

Atlantic Mackerel

The Atlantic mackerel is a fast-swimming species that often travels in large schools. Most Atlantic mackerel
caught by New Hampshire anglers are 12 to 18 inches in length and weigh less than 3 pounds.
Two distinct populations migrate through coastal New Hampshire waters at different times. The more
southerly contingent arrives in early summer. The northern contingent of mackerel moves inshore to the
southern New England coast by late May, migrates north, and then passes through again in September-October
on its way offshore to deeper waters. In the Gulf of Maine they can be caught from late spring through fall,
although mackerel fishing is best in early June or during the fall.

Atlantic mackerel can be found in the upper 10 to 25 feet of the water column almost anywhere along the New
England coast. A medium spinning rig spooled with 15-pound test line is best for casting with a single, 1 to 1
½-ounce mackerel jig. However, any small jig or shiny metal lure can be used with good results. Effective bait
includes worms, clam necks and squid. Effective lures include diamond jigs and mackerel trees.

Winter Flounder

Of the half-dozen or so types of flounders occurring in New Hampshire waters, the winter flounder (or
blackback) is by far the flounder species most commonly caught by recreational anglers.
In the Gulf of Maine, winter flounder begin moving into the bay and estuaries during late winter for
spawning, which occurs in April or May in New Hampshire. After spawning, they remain in the bays, harbors
and near shore areas throughout the summer before migrating to offshore waters in the fall.

Fishing for flounder in New Hampshire begins in May and generally continues through September. Anglers can
fish for flounder from jetties, piers and bridges, but those fishing from boats near the mouths of estuaries and
harbors are more successful. Light to medium tackle rods are used, equipped with 1- or 2-ounce weights and
long-shank flounder hooks attached to “spreaders.” Lures are mostly ineffective; bait is best. Favorite baits
include clam worms, blood worms and clams. Chumming is also a common tactic to attract flounder to where
you are fishing.

Rainbow Smelt

Rainbow smelt congregate in bays and estuaries in the fall to feed on crustaceans and small fish. In March, as
water temperatures rise and ice breakup occurs, smelt spawn in areas of high water flow and rocky bottoms
in estuarine rivers.
Smelt begin to gather in the bay and near the mouth of tributaries in late fall and winter in anticipation of their
spring spawning run. Smelt are occasionally caught during late fall, however, smelt fishing begins in earnest
with the formation of ice in the Great Bay Estuary and its tributaries. Smelt fishing is best a few hours on either
side of high tide, and catches are most often greater at night.

Many anglers use short two-foot-long fishing rods, while others simply tie their fishing line to cross beams,
placing them over the holes in the ice in their ice shanties. Smelt anglers will have success using a variety of
gear, whether it’s a small spinning outfit or a handline. A very light line, 4-pound test or less, is essential. Clam
(or sea) worms and small local bait fishes, like mummichogs, on a size 6 to 10 hook with a small sinker are
effective. Schools of smelt can move vertically in the water column while they swim, therefore, the depth of a
baited hook is critical to successful smelt fishing. An effective lure is the small silver or metallic colored jigs.

Atlantic Codfish

In coastal New Hampshire, Atlantic codfish are found near the Isles of Shoals and along Jeffrey’s Ledge. Cod
can occur from surface waters to depths of 1,200 feet, depending on life stage and season. Most frequently
they are found at depths of 200 to 300 feet, living within a few feet of the bottom. Adapted for bottom
feeding, cod inhabit rocky bottoms, but may occasionally feed on herring in the water column. Average size of
codfish caught near the shore range from 6 to 12 pounds; occasionally anglers may encounter 20- to 30-pound
adults.

Most cod-seeking anglers fish on offshore grounds from boats, using fresh bait or jigs with teasers. Opportunity
exists, however, for anglers to catch this fish from shore, as well as from boats in near-shore waters. Popular
baits include clams, sand eels, squid and shrimp. Cod fishing is at its best in spring and fall when water
temperatures are changing. Diamond jigs and other jig-type lures are effective hardware for catching cod.

Haddock

This member of the cod family prefers deep, cool water and gravel or smooth rock substrates. Haddock migrate
seasonally. In coastal New England they are most abundant during summer months in the shallower waters
of the Gulf of Maine. Few haddock exceed 24 inches or weigh more than 3 to 5 pounds.
Haddock can occasionally be caught in New Hampshire from spring to fall in deep water areas. A medium-
action 8-foot boat rod is effective for haddock fishing. Unlike cod, haddock have very soft mouths that gently
tap at a baited hook. These are felt as light bumps to the angler, thus, require a sensitive rod. Lures are
ineffective in catching haddock. Fresh clams, shrimp and squid are the best baits.

Pollock

The pollock is an active fish living at all depths, depending on the food supply, which includes small
invertebrates, shrimp and baitfish. Larger pollock tend to be found deeper and farther from the coast, while
smaller ones (often called “harbor pollock”) are more likely to be near the surface. Pollock caught by hook
may range in size from 10 to 16 inches (harbor pollock) up to 2- to 3-foot fish encountered offshore.
Recreational anglers, casting with light spinning gear, may take small harbor pollock from inshore waters near
breakwaters or other structures. Larger pollock may be taken offshore in deeper waters. Pollock are caught with
either artificial lures, such as diamond jigs and mackerel trees, or with bait, such as clam necks and clam
worms.

Fish FAQs and Facts

Fish
Fish are vertebrates (backboned animals) that live in water. There are more kinds of
fish than all other kinds of water and land vertebrates put together. The various kinds
of fish differ so greatly in shape, color, and size that it is hard to believe they all
belong to the same group of animals.

Importance of Fish
Fish help keep the number of organisms on the earth in balance. Fish feed on some
aquatic organisms and themselves become food for others.

Fish Sides
Sometimes scientists use big funny words to explain which side of the fish they are
talking about. This easy guide deciphers the technical talk for you.

Fish Species of Australia

This site lists Australian fish species by common name. Each links lead to a page with
a brief summary on each species.

Fish Body Forms and Lifestyles

Body form affects the mechanics and adaptations of fish to swimming and moving in
the water. When you see a fish – whether you are diving, fishing, watching an
aquarium, nature program, or preparing one for dinner (provided you bought the
whole fish, a rarity today), you may be able to classify it into one of six broad
categories of design (or body forms):

Fish
The term “fish” is applied to a class of animals that includes some 21,000 extremely
diverse species. Fish can be roughly defined (and there are a few exceptions) as cold-
blooded creatures that have backbones, live in water, and have gills. The gills enable
fish to “breathe” underwater, without drawing oxygen from the atmosphere.
Coral Reef Fish
Of all the creatures dwelling on coral reefs, none are more active or obvious than the
fishes. Perhaps more than any other single component of the reef communities, fishes
provide the best opportunity to observe essential features of reef ecology.

Fish FAQs
Q: Is life found at all depths in the ocean? Q: How many fish species are there? Q:
Which is the oldest fish, as a class? Q: What is the world’s largest fish? The smallest?
Q: What is the most common fish in the sea? Q: Do fish sleep?

What Does A Fish Look Like?

One of the best things about fishwatching is the thrill of seeing so many different
fishes together in one place. When snorkeling over a tropical coral reef you might see
more than 50 different species . What makes fishwatching even more fun is that many
of the fishes have completely different shapes, colors, and movements.

Even Fish Need to Keep Clean

It is hard to think of a fish being dirty. After all, they swim around in water all day
long. So why aren’t they always clean? Just like you, fish also need a good cleaning
nearly everyday. They don’t get dirty from playing in the yard, but do have tiny, tiny
animals, known as parasites, living on their skin, scales and inside their mouths. If
the parasites are not cleaned away, they quickly multiply until the fish becomes sick.

What is Northern Cod?

Northern Cod is the most abundant and most valuable groundfish stock in the
Northwest Atlantic Ocean. There are over 40 other groundfish stocks in
Canada’s Atlantic fishery. Cod, turbot, redfish (or ocean perch), haddock, pollock and
flounder are the main species and they all have the same characteristic: they feed
near the bottom in the more shallow waters of the submerged plateaus or “banks” of
our Continental Shelf.

The Cod Fishery

The lives of the fishermen of
Newfoundland has been irrevocably changed by the moritorium. Increasingly, the
most unusual sight in coastal
Newfoundland is a fisherman off-loading his latest catch. The once familiar action of
jigging a cod is now a serious crime. Due to the closure of the food fishery in 1994,
Newfoundlanders no longer have the right to feed their families from the sea.What
once was a tradition is now a memory.

Haddock

Haddock, bottom-feeding marine fish, Melanogrammus aeglefinus, of the cod family,

Gadidae, differing from the cod in its smaller mouth, longer anterior dorsal fin, and
the black line that runs along its side.

Halibut
Halibut, common name for either of two species of flatfish in the genus Hippoglossus,
related to the flounder. Halibut are longer, thicker, and heavier than any of the other
flatfishes and differ somewhat in development.

Herring

Herring, common name for several fishes of the order Clupeiformes, which also
includes the anchovies. Herrings are economically the most important group of fish to
North America and western Europe.

Mackerel

Mackerel, common name for any of 48 species of important food fishes in the family
Scombridae. The Atlantic mackerel, Scomber scombrus, which is blue above and silver
below, attains a length of about 50 cm (about 20 in) and a weight of about 1.4 kg
(about 3 lb).

Perch

Perch, any of several species of bony fish, genus Perca, family Percidae, characterized
by a dorsal fin divided in two parts. The front portion is spined and the rear part is
soft-rayed. Two spines also occur on the anal fin.

Shad
Shad, common name for several species of food fish in different genera of the family Clupeidae, related to
the herring, sardine, menhaden, and alewife. Shad generally inhabit the sea or brackish waters, feeding
on other fish and on plankton, but all species ascend rivers to spawn in fresh water.

Skate

Skate, common name applied to the rays of the family Rajidae. These flat-bodied
elasmobranchs are common in warm and temperate seas, including the coastal waters
of the
U.S. The flesh of the European, or gray, skate, Raja batis, which attains a weight of 45
kg (100 lb), is extensively eaten in
Europe ; skate flesh is not common in the North American diet.

Skate Egg Case

The bottom-dwelling skate buries most of its egg case in the sand; the tendrils can
hook onto seaweed. The case is sometimes referred to as a “mermaid’s purse.”

Smelt

Smelt, common name for any of several species of marine and freshwater fish of the
family Osmeridae of the northern hemisphere, characterized by the presence of a
small adipose fin on the dorsal surface of the body, and by rather large scales, which
readily fall off.

Sole

Sole, any of several species of flatfish of the family Soleidae, found in tropical and
subtropical oceans and also in fresh water. Like other flatfishes in the order
Pleuronectiformes, the sole is oval and flattened side to side; it spends its adult life
on the ocean bottom, lying on its left side, partly covered with sand and mud.

Tuna

Tuna, common name for any of several large, pelagic, schooling fishes of Thunnus and
related genera, of the family Scombridae, order Perciformes. Tuna are found in most
of the waters of the world, and have long been valued as food fish.

FISH SPICIES

Salmo salar
Threatened

Dams and pollution are hazards for the Atlantic salmon on its run to the spawning beds. However, an older and
far more serious problem has been high seas fishing, which was not subject to management regulation for
sustaining yields. In 1966 when reduced stocks caused concern on both sides of the Atlantic, Canada, the
United States, and
Spain banned high seas salmon fishing, although other countries did not join the ban until ten years later.

Prionace glauca

The blue shark is one of the most abundant and far-ranging of all sharks and is a prolific breeder. Females
sometimes litter as many as 70 pups. This is a slimly built fish with a 2 m specimen weighing only about 32 kg.
Regarded by anglers as a sport fish, the current world angling record is 3.5 m and 186 kg.

Sometimes known as the blue whaler because of its frequent presence at the scene of a whale kill, the blue
shark is not reputed to be particularly dangerous to humans.

Ictalurus nebulosis
The usual length of this moderate-sized bullhead is 20 to 36 cm. Its distribution is restricted to the fresh waters
of eastern and central
North America. It was released in Germany in the early 1900s, and from there to England, many European
countries, and the former
USSR. The maximum age of the fish is six to eight years.

Nests are usually shallow depressions in a muddy or sandy bottom in which the eggs are deposited. Feeding is
done mainly at night on or near the bottom, and food including waste and offal is searched out largely by
means of the barbels. Particularly resistant to domestic and industrial waste, it is sometimes the only species
found in heavily polluted waters. The flesh is firm, reddish to pink in colour, and quite delicious.

Salmo trutta

The brown trout was introduced to North America from

Europe in 1883 and has since become a popular quarry for anglers.

The females spawn in autumn and the beginning of winter in a water temperature of about 8 degrees
Celsius and lay their eggs in shallow water on gravely bottoms. A nest is dug in the gravel where the
eggs are deposited and then covered over. A five- or six-year-old female produces about 2,000 eggs
per season.
The best time for fishing for brown trout is in the evening. They feed upon aquatic and terrestrial
insects, crustaceans, molluscs, frogs, salamanders, and other fish.

Cyprinus carpio

The carp was introduced to North America from

Europe. Sometimes specimens have only a few large scales (“mirror carp”) or none at all (“leather carp”).

This fish frequents the shallow warm waters of lakes and streams even when somewhat muddy or polluted. It
feeds on insect larvae, crustaceans, snails, and plants. The carp spawns in vegetated shallows in June and
July. One 8 kg specimen had 2,300,000 eggs. The angling record in
North America is 105 cm and 25 kg. The world record is 38 kg. It is usually caught still-fishing on doughballs,
potatoes, or worms.
Latimeria chalumnae
Vulnerable

“Old fourlegs,” the coelacanth (see-la-kanth), close to the stock that gave rise to the land vertebrates,
is well known from the fossil record of 75 million to 400 million years ago. They were thought to be
extinct until 1938 when one was caught off the coast of
South Africa. A long search for their home ended in 1952 when they were found in the
Comoros archipelago.

In 1975, it was discovered that the coelacanth is a “live bearer” when a 1.5 m mother was found to contain five
young that were each a perfect 30 cm miniature of the adult. Of the specimens caught to date, the maximum
weight has been 95 kg and a maximum length about 1.8 m.

Pacific Mako Shark

One of the most active sharks, it leaps repeatedly when hooked and is, consequently, a popular
quarry for shark fishermen. The Mako is involved in attacks on boats more frequently than any other
species. Thresher Shark: Distinguished by the long (up to 3.3 m) upper lobe of the caudal fin which
is used to strike whip-like blows at its prey. Hammerhead: The eyes are located at the outer tips of
the head It grows to 4.5 m or more. Mako: Perhaps the most beautiful of the sharks. The back is a
deep blue, the underside a glittering white. It grows to 455 kg and up to 3.6 m long.

Greenland Shark: A very lethargic creature and one of the few sharks to inhabit polar waters year-
round. Great White Shark: The most dangerous of all the sharks. The largest taken measured 6.3 m and
weighed 3,315 kg. It is very aggressive.

IKAN TENGALAN DAN IKAN LAMPAM JAWA

PENEMUAN TERKINI

Kejayaan pertama membiakkan Ikan Tengalan (Puntius bulu) secara aruhan

di Pusat Penyelidikan Perikanan Air Tawar Batu Berendam, Melaka.
 Ikan Tengalan (Puntius bulu)

P.P.P.A.T telah berjaya buat kali pertamanya membiakkan Ikan Tengalan (Puntius bulu) secara aruhan pada akhir
bulan Januari Tahun 1999 di bawah program R& D nya. Dalam percubaan yang dijalankan, sebanyak dua ekor
Ikan Tengalan telah berjaya dibiakkan menggunakan hormon. Kadar persenyawaanya adalah 60% sementara
kadar penetasanya ialah 70%. Nilai-nilai ini agak rendah kerana ini merupakan kejayaan pertama. Di masa-masa
akan datang kajian akan diteruskan untuk menetapkan dos-dos hormon yang digunakan serta mempiawaikan
teknik pembiakan aruhan dan teknologi pengeluaran benih Ikan Tengalan secara besar-besaran.
Maklumat am Ikan Tengalan (Puntius bulu)
