Farm biosecurity and the future of sustainable food

Blue tang and clownfish

Why this part of aquaculture matters for feeding more people with a lighter footprint.

Our lab and public aquarium study fish health, breeding and reef restoration — and share what we learn. Courses, school visits and research partnerships for the next generation of aquaculture experts.

Three things that make the difference

  • Public aquarium — Tunnels, touch pools and guided tours.
  • Open data — Water and health studies shared openly.
  • Fish health lab — Diagnostics for farms within 48 hours.

How we do it, step by step

  1. Question: Problems brought to us by farmers.
  2. Experiment: Trials in tanks and partner farms.
  3. Data: Careful records and statistics.
  4. Share: Guides, courses and open papers.
  5. Apply: New practice on real farms.

My students still talk about the touch pool and the shark tunnel.
