Results of experimental growing of japanese scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis in the first three years of life in cages mounted in the Aniva Bay (southern Okhotsk Sea) are presented. Mean size and weight of the mollusks are determined and their growth rate and survival are compared with these indices for juvenile scallops from natural settlements in the Aniva Bay and other habitats located in the Far East region. Feasibility of the cage method for commercial cultivation of the scallop in conditions of the Aniva Bay is concluded.
