Photosynthetic suspended-growth systems in aquaculture

TLDR
The principle advantages of photosynthetic suspended-growth systems are lower capital costs relative to other recirculating aquaculture systems and increased control over stock management relative to conventional static ponds and the main disadvantage is the relatively low degree of control over water quality and phytoplankton density, metabolism, and community composition.

Bioflocs substituted fishmeal feed stimulates immune response and protects shrimp from Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that shrimp survival and immunity are enhanced by bioflocs substituted fishmeal, which activated the immune response to prevent V. parahaemolyticus infection.

A comparison of recirculation aquaculture systems versus biofloc technology culture system for on-growing of fry of Tinca tinca (Cyprinidae) and fry of grey Mugil cephalus (Mugilidae)

TL;DR: Results indicated that Tinca tinca seem to be able to adapt to the BFT systems, and the microbial diversity in the tank water and the intestinal microbiota of fish were examined by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and found to be different depending on the system used for on-growing.

Managing input C/N ratio to reduce the risk of Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease (AHPND) outbreaks in biofloc systems – A laboratory study

TL;DR: Bioflocs as such can decrease the impact of a Vibrio parahaemolyticus challenge and that this protection depends on the operational parameters of the biofloc system, and probiotics can be used to complement the protective effect of bio flocs.

Cultivo de cachama blanca en altas densidades y en dos sistemas cerrados

TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the tolerance of red-bellied pacu, Piaractus brachypomus, to high-density in closed production systems with zero water exchange rate and connected to a bioclarifier.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects on hematological parameters, antioxidant and immune responses, AChE, and stress indicators of olive flounders, Paralichthys olivaceus, raised in bio-floc and seawater challenged by Edwardsiella tarda

TL;DR: The results indicate that E. tarda infection affected various physiological factors in P. olivaceus, and fish raised in seawater were more susceptible to E. Tarda infections than those raised in bio-floc.

Pond aquaculture water quality management

TL;DR: This work focuses on water quality and aquaculture in the context of ponds, and investigates the role of manure, water quality, and waste management in the development and management of these facilities.
Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon/nitrogen ratio as a control element in aquaculture systems

TL;DR: The addition of carbonaceous substrate was found to reduce inorganic nitrogen in shrimp experimental tanks and intilapia commercial-scale ponds and it was found in tilapia ponds that the produced microbial proteins are taken up by the fish.
Journal ArticleDOI

Interactions between bacteria and algae in aquatic ecosystems

TL;DR: The purpose of this review is to examine the means by which algae and heterotrophic bacteria interact in planktonic systems and cite specific evidence from the literature for various types of interactions.

Regulation of gross growth efficiency and ammonium regeneration in bacteria by substrate C: N ratio1

TL;DR: Natural assemblages of marine bacteria were cultured on combinations of C and N sources (amino acids, glucose, and NH,‘) to span a range of substrate C: N ratios to speculate that C : Ns of available substrates in marine waters is > 10 : 1.
