This report is not to be cited without prior reference to the authorsAbstract
Stocking of flounder in salmonid freshwater culture are suggested
as a possible way of reducing loadings of surplus
food to surrounding environment Flounder of different sizes
were transferred from an estuary to Atlantic salmon trays and
net pens in fresh water. The flounder fed on surplus salmon
dry food. Transfer mortality, growth potential and feeding
habits in duoculture with salmon are discussed.
