Fish Cage Farming

Fish cage farming is practiced all over the world. By keeping fish in cages and a "fish holding pen", entire communities can share a body of water, while each farmer can tend to their own individual fish farm.

Fish cage and fish holding pen farming is attractive to many individuals because a large crop can be raised, tended and harvested in a small area. Since the fish are in a concentrated area, problems can be quickly recognized and addressed.

Aquaculture Definition

Before the specific information, it's important to understand the word "aquaculture" and the aquaculture definition since it's often used to refer to fish holding pen and fish cage farming. In general, the aquaculture definition is "the rearing or farming of aquatic animals/plants for food".

This can be used to farm for:

Fish

Shellfish

Crustaceans

Algae

Aquatic Plants

It can be done with both fresh and saltwater organisms. It can also be used in order to farm food for human consumption or to feed other animals within fish farming (for example, some fish are farmed in order to be used as food for other farmed fish).

Construction

Rigid cages for fish cage farming are made from either a hard plastic mesh or wire webbing. Flexible cages are made by building a frame, then covering it with netting made from nylon or a similar material.

The type of frame used depends upon where it will be placed. Flexible cages are only suitable for still waters where there is little threat from predators, such as turtles or large carnivorous fish.

Selection

Most species of fish can be raised in fish cages. Some species do better than others and some strains within a species will do better.
