Types of Shrimps / Prawns in Asia


Western Blue Shrimp (P. stylirostris) was a popular choice for shrimp farming in the western hemisphere, until the IHHN virus wiped out nearly the whole population in the late 1980s. A few stocks survived and became resistant against this virus. When it was discovered that some of these were also resistant against the Taura virus, some farms again bred P. stylirostris from 1997 on.


Chinese White Shrimp (P. chinensis, also known as the Fleshy Prawn) occurs along the coast of China and the western coast of Korea and is being farmed in China. It grows to a maximum length of only 18 cm, but tolerates colder water (min. 16°C). Once a major factor on the world market, it is today used almost exclusively for the Chinese domestic market after a virus disease wiped out nearly all the stocks in 1993.


Kuruma Shrimp (Marsupenaeus japonicus) is farmed primarily in Japan and Taiwan, but also in Australia; the only market is in Japan, where live Kuruma shrimps reach prices of the order of US$ 100.– per pound.




Indian White Shrimp (P. indicus) is a native of the coasts of the Indian Ocean and is widely bred in India, Iran, and the Middle East and along the African shores.



Banana Shrimp (Fenneropenaeus merguiensis) is another cultured species from the coastal waters of the Indian Ocean, from Oman to Indonesia and Australia. It can be grown at high densities.



Several other species of Penaeus play only a very minor role in shrimp farming. Some other kinds of shrimp also can be farmed, e.g. the "Akiami paste shrimp" or Metapenaeus spp. Their total production from aquaculture is of the order of only about 25,000 tonnes per year, small in comparison to that of the penaeids.

All farmed freshwater prawns today belong to the genus Macrobrachium. Until 2000, the only species farmed was the Giant river prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii, also known as the Malaysian prawn). Since then, China has begun farming the Oriental river prawn (M. nipponense) in large quantities, and India farms a small amount of monsoon river prawn (M. malcolmsonii). In 2003, these three species accounted for all farmed freshwater prawns, about two thirds M. rosenbergii and one third M. nipponense.

Tiger Prawns are called : Penaeus monodon.


The type of shrimps used in the Singapore local Prawn Ponds are of the giant river prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) type. ( See Wikipedia : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrobrachium_rosenbergii ) These are freshwater prawns in Australia and called freshwater shrimp in the United States of America. THE WORDS ‘PRAWN’ AND ‘SHRIMP’ are often used synonymously. Can anyone tell me how to find out which is a male or female? How to tell ? Hic hic......


SHRIMP FISHING IN TAIPEI ,TAIWAN

釣蝦場 (pronounced diào xiā cháng) in Taiwan

These farms allow you to fish shrimps from their pools and the ones you catch, you can either bring home or barbecue them there and eat them right away. You only pay a certain hourly fishing fee. The prices vary, but they usually start at 150NTD per hour. Some farms differentiate the price by the gender of the shrimp, fishing at the pool of male shrimps is more expensive.
