Milkfish, Chanos chanos (Forsskal), locally known as "bangus" or "bangos", is the predominant species being cultured in the Philippines . Hundreds of years ago bangus was grown in ponds along coastal areas. That was the beginning of fish fanning. Bangus is a popular table fare among Filipinos. To the biologist, it is an innately sturdy fish, being able to adapt and thrive even in the confined, unnatural environment of the fishpond. This characteristic is not often found in most other fish species.
Bangus is widely seen in Capiz and can be found daily in all market. This fish has been exported not only in the region but in other regions as well. For this very reason, Capiz Products has been made and has been popularized because of this fish.
