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:

Journal ArticleDOI
Pilot study on water quality regulation in a recirculating aquaculture system with suspended growth bioreactors
TL;DR: It is suggested that various adjustments in the carbon/nitrogen ratios of SGBRs can be practically controlled according to the concentrations of pollutants in the culture tanks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Proteome modifications of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) muscle under biofloc system
TL;DR: The results indicate that biofloc technology could alter the expression of proteins involved in structure, metabolism and immune status of cultured shrimp.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production performance and financial feasibility analysis of farming catfish (Clarias gariepinus) utilizing water exchange system, aquaponic, and biofloc technology
TL;DR: In this article, a case study was used from catfish (Clarias gariepinus) farmers in Bogor, West Java, Indonesia to analyze production performance, financial feasibility, and sensitivity analysis in catfish farming through a different farm system including water exchange system, aquaponic and bio-floc technology.

Growth and feed utilisation of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) fed different protein levels in a clear-water or biofloc-RAS system
Huu Yen Nhi Nguyen,Huu Yen Nhi Nguyen,Huu Yen Nhi Nguyen,Thi Lan Trinh,Thi Lan Trinh,Kartik Baruah,Torbjörn Lundh,Anders Kiessling +7 more
TL;DR: Growth, feed intake and protein efficiency, especially if retention of the floc was included, was overall higher in the Bio-RAS than in the CW- RAS system, and feed conversion was influenced both by protein level and by the availability of biofloc.
Journal ArticleDOI
Zootechnical performance evaluation of the use of biofloc technology in nile tilapia fingerling production at different densities
Rafael Bittencourt Vieira,Leopoldo Melo Barreto,Karina Zanoti Fonceca,Maurício Santana Lordelo,Fabiana Ribeiro Souza,Norma Suely Evangelista-Barreto +5 more
TL;DR: The data of survival, density management demand, and physicochemical parameters variations of the water suggested an optimal density of 800 fish m-3, since this resulted in an average weight gain per E.U. of 1,891.25 ± 151.24 g.

Probiotic Bacteria as Biological Control Agents in Aquaculture
TL;DR: This review describes the state of the art of probiotic research in the culture of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and live food, with an evaluation of the results obtained so far.
Book
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.
