That is why target output and harvest size head the list. Site temperatures come next: tilapia, for example, grow best at 27\u201329 \u00b0C, so a cold site needs heating in the plan (<a href=\"https:\/\/avalonlibrary.net\/ebooks\/Southern%20Regional%20Aquaculture%20Center%20-%20Tank%20Culture%20of%20Tilapia.pdf\">SRAC<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h2>Apa yang terjadi selanjutnya<\/h2>\n<p>Species, target output and site size are enough to start.
