Abstract

In recent years the fishery always has been a growing industry. However, fishery like the other industries had faced with some limitations. Pollution of water resources, fight disease and efforts to increase production efficiency have been important challenges of fishing industry in recent years. Also, world statistics show that the fishing did not have much grown in recent years. On the other hand, aquaculture of marine fish as new industry can be a reliable solution for the management of aquatic ecosystems and restore these reserves, and in recent years, it always has been a significant growth in the production. So far, several species such as Mahimahi (Coryphaena hippurus), European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax), Cobia (Rachycentron canadum) and silver pomfret (Pampus argenteus) have been successfully produced and marketed with different aquaculture methods (i.e. cage culture and pen culture). The aim of this study was to summarize marine fish production methods with an emphasis on the production of silver pomfret, as a commercial species and the study of the opportunities and challenges facing this sector in the future.
