Despite their suitability for mariculture, clam aquaculture remains unexplored in Bangladesh. This study marks the first trial of hard clam, <em>Meretrix meretrix</em> aquaculture in two southeast coastal channels, Chowfaldandi and Rejukhal, using three culture systems-hapa (net cage), basket, and bag-suspended from floating bamboo rafts. The potential effect of eco-physiological parameters on growth, survival and culture systems was also evaluated. After six-month (March–September) of culture, significantly greater survival was found in hapa systems (36% and 51%) compared to baskets (2.3% and 10.7%) and bags (9.5% and 16.6%) at both sites. Covarience revealed location alone did not significantly impact survival, but culture system-location interaction was critical. Growth performance, including shell length increment and weight gain, was significantly higher in hapa systems, especially at Rejukhal. Growth correlated positively with temperature, turbidity, and phytoplankton abundance but negatively with salinity, while dissolved oxygen and pH showed no significant impact. Phytoplankton abundance was temperature-dependent and negatively affected by salinity and pH. A drop of salinity, pH and DO during monsoon rain reduced shell growth. Principal Component Analysis showed that the phytoplankton, dissolved oxygen, and temperature positively influenced growth, while salinity and pH enhanced survival. This study highlights the potential of multi-layer suspended clam culture technology to promote integrated multi-trophic aquaculture, enhance sustainability, support carbon-neutral practices, create alternative livelihoods, and alleviate pressure on wild populations in Bangladesh's coastal ecosystems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36894,"journal":{"name":"Aquaculture and Fisheries","volume":"11 3","pages":"Pages 618-635"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146026081","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study we collected 13 sets of maturation data from three commercial shrimp hatcheries in Vietnam to review the reproductive performance with and without eyestalk ablation of both domesticated <em>Penaeus vannamei</em> and domesticated <em>P. monodon</em>. Our results showed that in 2024 unablated <em>P. vannamei</em> outperformed their ablated counterparts, producing 8.3 million nauplii/female (from 21 to 27 spawns/female) or nearly four folds higher than that of ablated females over an exploitation of 126–148 days. Spawning rate of unablated <em>P. vannamei</em> females was high, averaging 21.6 % nightly. A positive growth rate of 0.29 g/day was recorded for unablated <em>P. vannamei</em> indicating good shrimp health. Furthermore, temporal comparisons revealed a significant improvement in reproductive performance of unablated <em>P. vannamei</em> females (supplied by the same broodstock supplier) from 2015 to 2024 regarding spawning rate (48 % from 14.6 % to 21.6 % nightly), fecundity (37 % from 250 to 352 × 10³ nauplii/spawn) and nauplii yield (113 % from 3.9 to 8.3 × 10⁶ nauplii/female). Induced by eyestalk ablation and artificial insemination domesticated <em>P. monodon</em> females produced 3.3 million nauplii/female on average over 91–102 days of the exploitation period. Average fecundity ranged from 447 to 507 × 10³ nauplii/spawn among the broodstock batches. Survival of ablated <em>P. monodon</em> females averaged at 58.8 ± 8.5 %. Both males and ablated females of <em>P. monodon</em> kept growing during the exploitation period at 0.17 ± 0.03 g and 0.14 ± 0.01 g, respectively. Unablated <em>P. monodon</em> females with much lower maturation rate and lower fecundity produced only 0.05 million nauplii/female or 72 folds lower than that of their ablated counterparts. Their very poor reproductive performance suggests that banning eyestalk ablation will make postlarvae production of domesticated <em>P. monodon</em> non-viable economically and impractical technically due to unrealistic number of broodstock to be used and substantial additional resources required.

Standard water quality parameters were monitored throughout the trial to ensure optimal culture conditions. While growth performance and yield did not differ significantly among treatments, T3 achieved the most efficient feed conversion ratio (FCR) and significantly reduced feed cost by 15.57% compared to T1. T3 also recorded the highest profit margin 19.49% greater than T2 and 28.89% higher than T1, without compromising fish health or water quality. These findings highlight that partial replacement of commercial feed with homemade feed, coupled with mild feeding restriction, is an economically viable and environmentally sound strategy.

As ectotherms with limited thermoregulatory capacity, crustaceans are vulnerable to prolonged thermal stress. Yet, they exhibit remarkable thermal adaptability and behavioral thermoregulation across diverse thermal zones. This review synthesizes evidence that crustaceans employ a hierarchical suite of behavioral responses to heat stress: a primary response involving temperature perception via ion channels and neural signal transmission; a secondary response involving energy allocation, body protection, and enhanced neuromuscular coordination regulated by hormones, enzymes, and genes to maintain homeostasis; and a tertiary response involving behavioral adjustments impacting growth, survival, and reproduction. Crucially, as temperatures approach species-specific tolerance thresholds, crustaceans engage in thermal navigation to avoid detrimental extremes. This resilience is fundamentally rooted in the nervous system's plasticity, enabling adaptation within bounds. However, short-term acclimation often fails to shift intrinsic thermal preferences or adequately resolve the inevitable physiological trade-offs between survival, growth, and reproduction under sustained thermal stress, creating a conflict for aquaculture objectives. Over time, extreme temperatures act as potent selection pressures. While driving phenotypic plasticity, they risk population decline, particularly in stenothermic species contracting their ranges. Eurythermic species, with greater neural and behavioral plasticity, show superior resilience but risk diluting valuable commercial traits through increased genetic polymorphism. Understanding these adaptation mechanisms, including the identification of critical thermal thresholds and the neural basis of plasticity limits, provides crucial insights. Future research must prioritize investigating transgenerational inheritance of thermal responses and selecting breeding stock with enhanced neural plasticity or the capacity to maintain growth-reproduction equilibrium under warming, alongside identifying resilient eurythermic strains suitable for aquaculture. The review examines external thermoregulation mechanisms in sensation, molecular regulation, physiological responses, and ecological adaptations. It provides strategic insights for crustaceans and aquaculture species confronting escalating thermal stress.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":36894,"journal":{"name":"Aquaculture and Fisheries","volume":"11 3","pages":"Pages 444-462"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146025801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
