The picture illustrates post harvest technologies. The woman is gutting the fish which will later be either salted, sun dried or smoked. There are inadequate freezing facilities for fish so people opt to salt, sun dry or smoke.

The present growth rate of milkfish, Chanos chanos is expected to be maintained. This is due to increasing use of sea cages and sea pens for its culture. The growing popularity of value added products of milkfish like de-boned and smoked forms and their export potentials will help maintain the current growth pattern. Moreover, the emergence of large commercial milkfish hatcheries is a positive development which can give milkfish industry the extra needed push.

La presencia del Pez León Pterois volitans en las aguas del Caribe Centroamericano se hizo manifiesta hace aproximadamente 2 años registrándose en Belice, Guatemala y en Honduras, de igual manera se ha localizado en Nicaragua y Costa Rica. En Honduras los primeros registros se determinaron en Roatán, Islas de La Bahía, por los avistamientos realizados por pescadores y tours operadores. La aparición de este pez en aguas del Caribe según algunas investigaciones se debió al daño ocurrido en un acuario en la Florida, producto del fenómeno natural Huracán ANDREWS en 1992, sin embargo la presencia en las costas hondureñas se registró en el 2009.
Esta especie se ha distribuido rápidamente desde la Bahía de Omoa hasta las costas de Gracias a Dios (Mosquitia Hondureña), y representa un riesgo grande para las distintas especies que forman parte de los arrecifes coralinos.

The giant gourami, Osphronemus goramy can be easily grown in variety of systems and on variety of feed sources. In Indonesia, giant gourami is cultured in ponds and cages. Being a herbivore, the species can be fed on soft leaves of plants as well as on pelleted feed.
Giant gourami can be bred naturally and this makes the species a good candidate to be bred by small-scale farmers.
The consumer preference and delicious taste of giant gourami as well as its high market value make up for the relatively low growth rate of the species.
Many restaurants in Indonesia serve delicious dishes of giant gourami; mainly fried or cooked.
