Feasibility and challenges of submerged culture of steelhead trout Oncorhynchus mykiss for open ocean aquaculture in the United States by Michael Chambers, Michael Coogan, Michael Doherty, Chris Rillahan, Pal Lader, Willaim H. Howell

“…Steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) have potential as an offshore species, though they have open air bladders (physostomous), and need access to air to inflate their swim bladders. To address this concern, three experiments were developed to explore the ability of O. mykiss to cope with extended periods of submergence. …”
