Tilapia are attractive as a co-cultured fish because of their potential to improve water quality, especially in penaeid shrimp ponds, by consuming plankton and detritus and by altering pathogenic bacterial populations while increasing marketable production.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFollowing introductory chapters covering ecological aspects of co-culture, tilapia feeding habits, historical use, and new models, \u003ci\u003eTilapia in Intensive Co-Culture\u003c\/i\u003e isdivided into co-culture in freshwater and marine environments. Co-culture core information is presented on Vibrio control, high-rate aquaculture processes, aquaponics, tilapia nutrient profile, and tilapia niche economics and marketing in the U.S, and with carp, catfish, freshwater and marine shrimp in the Americas, the Middle East, and Asia.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTilapia in Intensive Co-Culture\u003c\/i\u003e is the latest book in t\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Contributors ix\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eForeword xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eRandall Brummett\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePreface xv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1.
