Abstract: Globally, aquaculture continues to grow in importance. Equally important is the need to intensify all forms of modern agriculture, in particular, aquaculture. Internationally, aquaculture poses a potential threat to public freshwater and saline water resources. Aquaculture systems and practices are needed that offer potential to reduce or completely eliminate water and waste discharge to the environment. Tilapia co-culture offers great potential as a technique to intensity and improves existing aquaculture production, while simultaneously providing a pathway to recover, recycle, and reuse wasted aquaculture nitrogen and phosphorus discharges as valuable by-product foods, feeds, and fuels. Tilapia co-culture also continues to play an integral role in the ongoing development of The Partitioned Aquaculture System (PAS), The Controlled Eutrophication Process (CEP), emerging zero-discharge marine shrimp production system designs, and aquaculture live food production systems.
