Summary
The Solovetsky Archipelago's inland waters host 14 fish species, including both native and introduced varieties. This study reveals the ecological characteristics of these species, their taxonomic diversity, and potential for sustainable economic use. Researchers evaluated the optimal annual catch and assessed lacustrine ranching as a promising aquaculture method, focusing on whitefish complexes. The approach involved analyzing feeding patterns, reproduction modes, and the integration of fish breeding stations with natural habitats to enhance local fisheries.
