Aquaculture in Taiwan

Ocean ranching of grouper involves growing wild caught individuals to market size.

[8] In 1995 Long Diann Bio Technology Co. Ltd. with the help of the Eastern Marine Biology Research Center successfully developed hatchery techniques for giant grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus).

Grouper are shipped live on specially built vessels to Hong Kong and mainland China.

[15] Taiwan's dominance in the eel market ended as production expanded in neighboring countries.

[18] The fields of biotechnology and applied ecology are playing an ever increasing role in the Taiwanese aquarium sector.

[19] National Pingtung University of Science and Technology offers one of the world's only graduate programs focussing on aquarium fish.
