The present invention is directed to apparatus and a method for maintaining and growing a primary cultured species and secondary organisms essential to the growth of the primary species in an aquaculture system (10) in which the parameters which affect the maintenance and growth of the primary cultured species are carefully monitored and adjusted on a substantially contin- uous basis. The apparatus (10) comprises a tank (11) for holding an aqueous medium and the primary species, nutrient supply equipment (14), equipment for selectively removing the aqueous medium from the tank (15, 20, 35, 36, 40), apparatus (16) for removing particulate matter from the aqueous medium removed from the tank, a sterilizer (19) for sterilizing the aqueous medium removed from the tank, equipment (24) for removing toxins from the aqueous medium removed from the tank without biological filtration, and a station with associated equipment (32, 28, 29, 33, 39) for bringing the aqueous medium to a steady state suitable for the growth and survival of the primary species. Conduits, pumps and associated valving are provided for transferring the aqueous medium among the various treatment stations and for returning the aqueous medium to the tank after it has been treated by any or all of the foregoing treatment equipment.
