GLOBALIZATION OF THE AMERICAN PADDLEFISH

Truman Dam blocked the paddlefish from its only known reliable spawning ground in America. Since then, the Missouri Department of Conservation has successfully artificially propagated this valuable sport and food fish. Paddlefish eggs are a valuable substitute for sturgeon caviar so Russian and eastern European aquaculturists have also mastered artificial paddlefish breeding. Since the late 1980s, the Chinese have embraced this technology as well. When our son, Ross, visited his brother Strader, who was teaching college in China, they visited an aquarium in Dalian. To their surprise there were tanks full of paddlefish, in all likelihood descended from Osage River stock.

I've kept paddlefish, they are great and eat more fish than I expected ! Do you know of any attempt to captive breed Pseudoscaphirhynchus hermanni?
