All farms were censused in the state and results covered 82% of the industry with a response rate of 41% of farms. This factsheet discusses the results of that study and the regulatory burden that the ornamental aquaculture industry in Florida endures.application/pdfenIn CopyrightArticle - Refereedhttps://doi.org/10.32473/edis-fa248-202220226Boldt, Noah [0000-0002-0017-2561]van Senten, Jonathan [0000-0002-3513-7600]2576-0009
