Capamara Communications Inc. publishes Hatchery International, a bi-monthly trade paper produced for fish hatchery professionals around the world.
The aim of Hatchery International is to provide a forum for exchanging information on technology used on fish and shellfish hatcheries and on water recirculation and re-use in aquaculture.

The publication publishes a range of articles dealing with all aspects of hatchery design construction, management, and operation. Feature articles (1200 words) may profile specific facilities or may be descriptions of flow-through and recirculation systems, subsystems or processes, including aspects of biology, physiology, chemistry, physics and engineering of aquaculture systems. Shorter articles (300-400 words) can be submitted for the news and new products sections of the publication.

Photographs. Digital photographs are preferred providing the pixel count is sufficient to allow magazine-quality reproduction. Line drawings should be in ink and formatted so that details will be clear after reduction or enlargement.
