Aquaculture is now viewed as a strong option to increase fish production as it plays a vital role in providing food security in India. Aquaculture informatics can be described as the scientific application of Information technology in biological concepts that enhance the productivity and economic viability of aquaculture sectors. Though there are lot of developments in various aquaculture sectors around the world, Aquaculture in India is still in infancy to use the information from different parts of the country. Advances in electronic communication, combined with specific cooperative efforts, should be used to increase the information exchange in the region. It is nation's part to educate the fish farmers through community based organization and to provide an information system, in low cost, to fulfill their requirements. In order to develop a single hub for the integrated activity, some community based organizations are formed like fish farmers association, self help group or aqua club. This paper is on the integration of aquaculture information based tools under one hub to design to work through a community based system.
