Alright darn it, I know Nakamura worked at the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Biological Laboratory in Osaka. I know he wrote papers on captive sea water systems. I know he wrote papers on sea water well systems for the Dept of the Interior in Honolulu.

He developed the systems for holding and maintaining tuna in totally closed systems and went into great detail on settling sand filters - we call them deep sand beds.



Jerel:

So probably it is the following Nakamura and the paper you are looking for might be "reasonably" old?

The Kewalo Research Facility (National Marine Fisheries Service, Honolulu Laboratory) pioneered
the practices required to acquire and maintain live tunas in shore-side tanks more than 40 years ago
(e.g., Nakamura 1962).


If so and if YT can't find it (back) you might want to ask Randy.

Knowing some more initials might be of help. If I find them I will let you know.
