About 1,000 hectares of ponds have been stocked with the banned shrimp species Litopenaeus vannamei. Four of the five farms stocked with the prohibited crustacean are in Central Luzon, and the fifth in Southern Tagalog.

In 1998, there was also a one-time stocking of L. vannamei in a large commercial shrimp farm in Negros Occidental after diseases decimated its Penaeus monodon (tiger prawn) stock.
