  • The implementation of Integrated Multi Tropic Aquaculture (IMTA) has several advantages compared with cultivating monocultures. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the growth of lobster sand on IMTA system. Lobster growth performance and environmental quality in an IMTA system fed naturally evaluated and compared with a lobster on monocultures fed local natural and artificial feed. The results showed that the growth of lobster at IMTA system better, although not significantly different (P <0.05) when compared with the growth of lobster on monocultures, both fed with natural or artificial feed. Similarly, the presence of abalone as companion animals do not affect to lobster growth and to the quality of water in aquaculture pond.
