This year’s Aquaculture America coincided with the triennial meeting of the World Aquaculture Society. The even is called the “triennial” because it is a coalition of the National Shellfisheries Association, The Fish Culture Section of the American Fisheries Society, World Aquaculture Society and the National Aquaculture Association.
The event ran for four days from March 6th through to the 10th at the Marriot
Hilton in New Orleans, Louisiana. Spread over two floors, the 2019 event hosted
a wide variety of aquaculture companies, ranging from fish feed producers all
the way to system integrators offering turn-key RAS installations.This year’s Aquaculture America coincided with the triennial meeting of the World Aquaculture Society.

In addition to the trade show, the show featured four full days of technical conferences (Friday, March 8th through to Monday, March 11th). The sessions covered a wide range of species, including everything from mussels to mainstream aquaculture fish such as tilapia and salmon, to newly emerging breeds including tuna. Fish health and disease were well covered as was the marketing and economic side of aquaculture.
The trade show spanned two floors of the Marriot Hotel and featured exhibitors from around the world:
Ziegler
Fish feed specialists Zeigler were on hand to show off their line of aquaculture feeds and nutrition for shrimp and fish, including trout, bass, tilapia, perch, sea bass, barramundi, yellowtail, pompano, and other marine fish species. They also promoted their feed mill technology including plant design, production engineering, feed formulations, nutritional support, and research and development.

Pentair
Pentair had a large booth with plenty of their advanced pumps on display, including their new Pentair Aquatic Eco-Systems Sparus Pump with Constant Flow Technology. This pump is quite unique in the market thanks to its large output of 20-140 GPM. The pump also features Pentair’s Flow Technology (CFT), which automatically calculates and self-adjusts to provide the exact speed needed to deliver the exact flow rate you establish. As system conditions change, the pumps CFT self-adjusts to deliver a constant user-specified flow rate.
