Extract

The growing interest in farming rainbow trout in the sea (MacLeod, 1977) or in brackish water (Tatum, 1973, 1976) is economically important because it involves the use of readily available sites and resources, and provides solutions to problems related to fresh water scarcity or its increased salinity (Al-Hamed, 1971; Al-Daham & Bhatti, 1977) in certain parts of the world.
