Growth under laboratory conditions of turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) from the Ría de Vigo (NW Spain)
n August 1983, 305 wild O-group turbot (Scophthalmus maximus L.) were captured at selected beaches of the Ría de Vigo, north-west Spain, for use in fattening trials. The fish were maintained in a flow-through system (0.015 m3 kg-1h-1) at ambient seawater temperatures (13° to 18°C) and salinities (32...
