Abstract
Routine culture of larvae has not yet been achieved, whereas it has for juveniles and adults. A long and complex larval life, inadequate knowledge of nutritional needs, and the maintenance of high water quality standards are major constraints in larval culture. Growth in older animals, although naturally slow, can be enhanced by environmental manipulation. Several species appear well suited for advanced culture efforts including polyculture. Coordinated programs of aquaculture and fisheries management appear feasible.
