A series of commercial-scale production trials were carried out at Harbor Branch
Oceanographic Institution (HBOI) over a one-year period to develop information on the
production parameters and costs associated with the production of Penaeus vannamei in a
recirculating aquaculture system. These data were used to develop an economic model to
analyze the commercial feasibility of producing shrimp in systems based on the designs
developed at Harbor Branch. Florida Atlantic University.
