Collect fry or fingerlings from five different strains of striped bass and rear to a suitable size for tank culture. Compare between and among production performance of the different strains for 24 months in a recirculating and flow-through system. Track performance on a monthly basis of each separate strain and family. Compare growth, survival, FCR, and dress-out percentages of the five strains and families in the different systems. Determine the fastest growing, best adapted strain for between-family selection potential.
