Geothermal waters are natural treasure, but unfortunately plans for their usage are often unrealistic. Geothermal waters in our country are not used, not even as an energy for heating residental objects. Hungary for several years in the past use it geothermal waters in agriculture, especially in fish production. That is one way for us to do the same for breeding warmwater fishes - Tilapia and African walking catfish. These two species are breed in intensive systems in Israel, Far East and Africa. Our experience with these species on experimental fish pond Mosorin are positive considering their excellent growth, good resistance and good meat quality. Main problem of this production is that in our conditions it could conduct only during summer months because Tilapia and African catfish die on temperatures below 15 deg C. Breeding on geothermal waters could be conducted during whole year. It is possible to combine this production with production in classic cyprinid ponds in part of fry and hatching material production.
