Abstract

In the Ohrid Lake the Ohrid trout (Salmo letnica) is an endemics species, which is not found anywhere else in Albania, FYROM or in other countries world. The fish is symbolic of the lake and of Pogradec, the biggest Albanian city on the lakeshore. The aim of this review is to give a description of potential applications of Aquaponics for the Ohrid trout rearing with the aim of reducing the wild capture fisheries and providing additional incomes to the farmers from the vegetable marketing. Furthermore on this review are presented the future perspectives of this species growing on a sustainable way, while all the region will face water scarcity problems.
