The orange roughy, red roughy, slimehead ordeep sea perch,Hoplostethus atlanticus, is a

relatively largedeep-sea fishbelonging to theslimeheadfamily(Trachichthyidae). TheMarine

Conservation Societyhas categorized orange roughy as vulnerable to exploitation. It is found in3 to 9 C (37 to 48 F) deep (bathypelagic, 180 to 1,800 metres (590 to 5,900 ft) waters of the

Western PacificOcean, easternAtlantic Ocean(fromIcelandtoMorocco; and fromWalvis Bay,

Namibia, to offDurban,South Africa),Indo-Pacific(offNew ZealandandAustralia), and in theEastern PacificoffChile. The orange roughy is notable for its extraordinary lifespan, withlifespans up to 149 years determined by scientific methods. It is important to commercial deep

trawlfisheries. The fish is actually a bright, brick red color; however, the orange roughy fades to

a yellowish orange after death.

Like otherslimeheads, the orange roughy is slow-growing and late to mature, resulting in a very

low resilience. They are extremely susceptible tooverfishingbecause of this, and many stocks(especially those offNew ZealandandAustralia, which were first exploited in the late 1970s)

have already crashed; recently discovered substitute stocks are rapidly dwindling. The flesh is

firm with a mild flavour; it is sold skinned and filleted, fresh or frozen.[1]

Physical description[edit]

Fish in theFaroe Islands:

Orange roughy,Hoplostethus atlanticus

Faroese stamp issued: 7 Feb 1994Artist:Astrid Andreasen

The orange roughy is not a vertically slender fish. They turn orange after death, but are red whileliving. The rounded head is riddled withmuciferouscanals (part of thelateral linesystem), as is

typical of slimeheads. The singledorsal fincontains four to sixspinesand 15 to 19 soft rays; the

anal fincontains three spines and 10 to 12 soft rays. The 19 to 25 ventralscutes(modifiedscales)

form a hard, bony median ridge between thepelvic finsandanus. Thepectoral finscontain 15-18soft rays each; the pelvic fins arethoracicand contain one spine and six soft rays; thecaudal fin

is forked. The interior of the mouth andgillcavity is a bluish black; the mouth itself is large and

strongly oblique. The scales arectenoidand adherent. The lateral line is uninterrupted, with 28 to32 scales whose spinules orctenii largely obscure the lateral line's pores. The eyes are large.

The orange roughy is the largest known slimehead species at a maximumstandard length(ameasurement which excludes the tail fin) of 75 centimeters (30 in) and a maximum weight of 7

kilograms (15 lb). The average commercial catch size is commonly between 35 and 45 cm in

length. The name orange roughy was renamed from the less gastronomically appealing

slimehead through a US National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) program during the late

1970s, which identified (then) underutilized species that should be renamed to make them more

marketable.[2]

Due to its longevity, the Orange Roughyaccumulateslarge amounts ofmercuryin its tissues,[3]having a range of 0.30 - 0.86 ppm compared with an average mercury level of 0.086 ppm for

other edible fish.[4]

Based on average consumption and the recommendations of aNationalMarine Fisheries Servicestudy, in 1976, theFDAset the maximum safe mercury level for fish at

1 ppm.[4]

Regular consumption of Orange Roughy can have adverse effects on health.[5][6]

Compared to most edible fish, Orange Roughy are a very poor source ofOmega-3 fatty acids,averaging less than 3.5gm per kilogram.

Life history[edit]

A preserved specimen on display at a museum.

Orange roughy are generally sluggish anddemersal; they form aggregations with a natural

population density of up to 2.5 fish per square meter, now reduced to about 1 per square meter.

These aggregations form in and around geologic structures, such as underseacanyonsand

seamounts, where water movement and mixing is highensuring dense prey concentrations. Theaggregations are not necessarily for spawning or feeding; it is thought that the fish cycle through

metabolicphases (active or feeding and inactive or resting) and seek areas with idealhydrologic

conditions to congregate during each phase. They lose almost all pigmentation while inactive,during which time they are very approachable.Predatorsinclude large deep-rovingsharks,

cutthroat eels,merluccid hakes, andsnake mackerels.

When active, juveniles feed primarily onzooplanktonsuch asmysidshrimp,euphausiids,

mesopelagic and benthopelagic fish,amphipods, and othercrustaceans; mature adults

predominately consume smaller fish, predominantly of thechaetodontidaeandmyctophidae

families andsquidwhich makes up to 20% of their diet. The diet of the orange roughy is depth-related with adult diets inversely related to that of juveniles. For example, juvenile consumption

of crustaceans is lowest at 900m but increases with depth while crustaceans in the adult diet

peaks at 800 - 1000m and decreases with depth. The consumption of fish is the opposite, juvenile

consumption decreases with depth while adult consumption increases. This inverse feedingpattern may be an example ofresource-partitioningto avoidintraspecific competitionfor the

available food at depths where prey is less abundant. The orange roughy's metabolic phases are

thought to be related to seasonal variations in prey concentrations. The inactive phase conservesenergy during lean periods. Orange roughy can live up to 149 years.

Reproduction[edit]

Orange roughy areoceanodromous, non-guardingpelagicspawners: that is, theymigrateseveral

hundred kilometers between localized spawning and feeding areas each year and form largespawning aggregations (possibly segregated according to sex) wherein the fish release large,

sphericaleggs2.25 millimetres (0.089 in) in diameter, made buoyant by an orange-redoilglobule) andspermen masse directly into the water. The fertilized eggs which are said to be 2.0to 2.5 mm, (and laterlarvae) areplanktonic, rising to around 200 meters (660 ft) to develop, with

the young fish eventually descending to deeper waters as they mature. Orange Roughy are also

synchronous, shedding sperm and eggs at the same time. The time between fertilization andhatching is thought to be 10 to 20 days;fecundityis low, with each female producing only

22,000 eggs per kilogram of body weight which is less than 10 per cent of the average for other

species of fish. Also, spawning can last up to 23 weeks and starts around June or July. Orange

roughy are very slow-growing and do not begin to breed until they are at least 20 years old whenthey are around 30 centimeters (12 in) in length.

[7]

The maturation age used in stock assessments ranges from 23

40 years,

[8]

which limitspopulation growth/recovery, because each new generation takes so long to start spawning.

Lifespan[edit]

The maximum published age of 149 years was determined viaradiometric datingof traceisotopesfound in an orange roughy'sotolith("ear bone").

[9]Similarly, counting by thegrowth

ringsof orange roughy otoliths has given a maximum age of 125 to 156 years.[10]

The validity of

these results is questioned by commercial fishers as some state the former method is

controversial and the latter method is known to underestimate age in older specimens.[citation needed]

The issue has yet to be resolved definitively but carries important implications relating to the

orange roughy'sconservation status.

Threats[edit]

Capture rate of orange roughy worldwide

In recent years, human consumption of orange roughy has risen drastically due to increased

supply through new deep-seatrawlingtechniques. Its recovery rate from fishing is slow because

its long life cycle and sporadic reproduction make the fish prone to overfishing. Due to habitat

damage of commercial trawling, some may not venture out during mating season. Studies haveshown a decline in species associated with Orange Roughy, either indirectly through trophic

interactions or directly through catching them, such as sea coral. TheUnited Statescontinues toimport up to 8,620tonnes(19 millionlb) per year. Several major food retailers have establishedseafood sustainability policies dealing with orange roughy. Some, such as Safeway, Inc., allow

the sale of the fish,[11]

while others explicitly prohibit its sale.[12]

A 2003 joint report by the

TRAFFIC Oceania andWorld Wildlife FoundationEndangered Seas Program argues that thereis "probably no such thing as an economically viable deep-water fishery that is also sustainable."

and concluded that "Similarly, international agreements to reduce fishing capacity, to remove

subsidies which encourage over-fishing, to encourage co-operation in management of fish stocks

and flag States to take responsibility for their vessels fishing on the high seas, appear to havegone largely unheeded, to the detriment of deep-sea species and their associated ecosystems."

[8]

In addition to the dangers for the species,bottom trawlinghas been heavily criticized by

environmentalists for its destructive nature. The destructive nature of bottom trawling combinedwith heavy commercial demand has focused criticism from both environmentalists and media.[13]

The Australian orange roughy fishery was not discovered until the 1970s, but by 2008, the

biomass was down to 10% of the unfished level.[14]

It was the first commercially sought fish toappear on Australia'sendangered specieslist because of overfishing.

Conservation[edit]

Conservation measures consist of imperfectly enforced catch limits, and listings on various

endangered species and do-not-eat lists maintained by governments and environmental activistorganizations.

According to sustainable seafood guides, such asSeafood Watch(USA), theRoyal Forest and

Bird Protection Society of New Zealand,[16]

theMarine Conservation Society(UK),[17]

consumers should strongly avoid the species.

Orange roughy is New Zealand's highest value fishery, accounting for 17.2% of totalfinfish

export earnings. The generally accepted fishery management practice is to quickly reduce the

original biomass (fish down stage) to a target of 30%. Once this target is achieved, quotas are set.For example, assuming a hypothetical unfished biomass of 100,000 tons, 70,000 tons is

considered "surplus" and unrestrained fishing is allowed to remove it. Quotas are set to maintain

the 30,000 ton target biomass. The catch size that allows this is themaximum sustainable yield

and was originally believed to be 1,200 tons per year. By 2005, it became obvious this quota wastoo high.

[18]

TheNew Zealand Ministry of Fisherieshas reduced catch quotas each year because the species'

maturation and reproduction rates have been repeatedly overestimated. Antons Trawling, Ltd.

represents 66% of the orange roughy quotas, and appealed the northern fishery's (ORH1) 2008

quota, which reduced thetotal allowable catch(TAC) from 1,470 tons to 914 tons. In February2008, the High Court overturned the new quota, ruling the Minister did not have the legal power

to set quotas for ORH1 because the strict interpretation of the Fisheries Act required an accurate

population assessment and comparison to how many there should be. Due to the expense anddifficulty of conducting assessments, only 20% of the areas had assessments. The majority of the

unassessed areas had TACs of 10 tons or less, with a few notable exceptions, such as ORH1. Asassessments in these areas to replace existing monitoring systems were neither cost effective nor

technically feasible, the court recommended amendments to the Act.[19][20]

However, the newquotas are estimated to sustainably support only 11% of the unfished population size. Also, catch

misreporting is a serious and common problem, with one ORH1 permit holder pleading guilty in

2008 to exceeding his quota by 180 tons, which by itself represents 12% of the quota. Area limitsand feature limits are also routinely exceeded. The Area A catch limit of 200 tons has been

exceeded every year, while the 30 ton limit for the Mercury-Colville features has been exceeded

in three of the last four years, including a catch of 64 tons in 2004-05. Since orange roughy is avaluable export, the Ministry of Fisheries has launched projects to study the fish.

[21]

In 2010,Greenpeace Internationaladded orange roughy (deep sea perch) to its seafood red list,which contains fish that are generally sourced from unsustainable fisheries.
