There were a total of 445 clientsserved in 2008.Apart from tilapia fingerling production,another major concern of the station is theproduction of duckweeds (Lemna sp.). These are tinyfree-floating plants that often form dense mats onthe surface of still or slow moving water. The plantis being promoted by the bureau as supplementalfeed for tilapia due to its reported high proteincontent. The station has completed research on the“Fertilization Trial on Duckweeds.”APCFF admin building, and production and experimentalponds, topmost and middle photos.

Red tilapia fingerlingsare dispersed to fish farmers from the coastalmunicipalities. Red tilapia is adaptable tobrackish water environment and promiseshigher income as this breed usually caters toa special market niche.BFAR RO2 has also expanded facilitythis year for its High Value Species Hatchery,which is located within the grounds of theMBSH. Trials on the artificial or captiveproduction of high value species such as seacucumber, lobster, abalone, mud crab, P.vannamei, and sea urchin are currentlyon various stages of development.The station is able to cut on electricity expensesthru the use of a windmill, at left,to draw saline water for its operations.
