They are unstressed despite the high density of crustaceans in the tanks – as much as 810 shrimp per cubic meter in its largest ones.

810 shrimp per cubic meter

264 gallons per cubic meter

65,000 gallon tank divided by 264 = 246 cubic meters

246 cubic meters x 810 shrimp per cubic meter = 199260 shrimp in the tank.

199260 shrimp avg 21 grams at harvest

454 grams per pound divided by 21 gram shrimp = 21.57 shrimp per pound.

199260 shrimp divided by 21.57 shrimp per pound = 9238 pounds at harvest

9238 x $12.00 per pound = $110,856 per tank per week.

$110856 x 52 = $5,764,512 per year per facility

x 3..5..10..20.. facility locations

Cost $5:50 to $6:00 per pound to raise 20 count shrimp.

Market price for fresh 20 count shrimp $12:00 per pound

Gross $5,764,512 per year per facility
Cost $2,882,256 at $6:00 per pound
Net $2,882,256 per facility per year.
