Abstract

Redclaw, Cherax quadricarinatus is a potential species for commercial aquaculture. Despite its much recognition, the industry is facing difficulties due to inadequate supply of juveniles for grow-out. This project aims for sustainable juvenile production by inducing ovarian maturation of female broodstock following sex separated induction, hormonal stimulation, and dietary supplementation.
