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.About:

Aeration strategy in the intensive culture of tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum, in the tropics
Judá Izel-Silva,Eduardo Akifumi Ono,Marieta Nascimento de Queiroz,Raphael Brito dos Santos,Elizabeth Gusmão Affonso +4 more
TL;DR: This study evaluated the efficacy of two aeration regimes on intensive rearing of tambaqui, Colossoma macropomum, in six 46.4-m3 concrete-wall earthen bottom ponds, with no water exchange, water quality, fish performance and health, aeration use and cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Numerical study of dense solid-liquid flow in hydrodynamic vortex separator applied in recirculating biofloc technology system
TL;DR: Zhu et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the relationship between separation efficiency and HRT of Recirculating Biofloc Technology (RBFT) applied in RBFT system, through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method.

A novel multitrophic concept for the cultivation of fish and duckweed: A technical note
TL;DR: In this article , the authors report on the design and operation of an advanced, innovative and environmentally friendly freshwater integrated multitrophic aquaculture (IMTA) system, which facilitates fish production while controlling water quality using duckweed treatment units.
Journal ArticleDOI
Purification of aquarium water by PVA gel-immobilized photosynthetic bacteria during goldfish rearing
TL;DR: The results revealed that the concentrations of NH4+-N on the day of a goldfish’s death were significantly higher than the concentrations on other days for all the aquarium systems, indicating that this immobilized photosynthetic bacteria system has the potential for use as a component in circulating filtration systems.

Pond aquaculture water quality management
Claude E. Boyd,Craig S. Tucker +1 more
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.
