Tropical Finfish Queensland Giant GrouperCommon Name: Queensland Giant GrouperSpecies: Epinephelus lanceolatusBrand Name: Tropical Finfish Queensland Giant Grouper
Farm location: Cairns, Far North QueenslandAnnual Production: ~ 50 tonnesProduction Schedule:
About Producer
In 1999 Dr. Richard Knuckey joined a plan to diversify aquaculture and protect coral reefs. He and his team would develop new broodstock techniques for Giant Grouper and other high-value species of fish. The proposal found favour in the Queensland Government, was awarded funding, and the Tropical Marine Finfish project began.
Sixteen years later, Tropical Finfish stepped out on its own as a privately held operation. Knuckey and his team had not only reached their goal of pioneering new techniques—they had created a world-class hatchery. Tropical Finfish is now the only breeder of Giant Grouper in Australia, and one of only a handful in the world. In addition to Giant Grouper, Tropical Finfish raises three other species in the Grouper family: Gold Spot, Tiger and Coral Trout.
