Summary: The South American freshwater fish Tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) is the most important native aquaculture species in Brazil. Current production levels are above 150,000 mt per year. Recent efforts to domesticate, breed and raise the species in aquaculture systems has led to significant increases in production (>10-fold) over the last decade, and development of new technologies based on genomic tools and information could help further increase productivity and production growth rates.
