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:

Influence mechanisms of macro‐infrastructure on micro‐environments in the recirculating aquaculture system and biofloc technology system
TL;DR: In this article , the authors analyzed and discussed how macro-infrastructure influences the microenvironment in aquaculture tanks and concluded that optimisation of infrastructure design is key to improving the water flow patterns and self-cleaning performance of tanks and achieving high efficiency of RASs and BFTs.

Effect of different carbon sources on growth, non-specific immunity and digestive enzyme activity of amur carp (Cyprinus rubrofuscus Lacepede 1803) fingerlings in biofloc based rearing system using inland saline groundwater
V. Ezhilarasi,A. K. Verma,A. M. Babitha Rani,V. Harikrishna,M.H. Chandrakant,Irshad Ahmad,P. Nageswari +6 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that jaggery is best as compared to other carbon sources tested for better growth, non-specific immunity and digestive enzyme activity of amur carp fingerlings in biofloc based rearing system using inland saline groundwater.

Portioning of microbial waste into fish nutrition via frugal biofloc production: A sustainable paradigm for greening of environment
TL;DR: In this article , the effects of BFT with different C/N ratios on system water and floc quality, as well as on animal performance, feed utilization, and flesh quality, were studied.

Toxicidade do nitrito para o camarão Litopenaeus vannamei cultivado em sistemas de água clara e bioflocos
Fabiana Penalva de Melo,Maria Gabriela Padilha Ferreira,Ítalo Felipe Mascena Braga,Eudes de Souza Correia +3 more
TL;DR: It is possible to culture the L. vannamei shrimp at concentrations of 10 and 20 mg N-NO2 L-1 for a period of 30 days without compromising growth and survival, and the interaction between the N-nitrite concentrations and culture systems did not affect significantly the total amount of hemocytes.

The Optimization of Dietary Protein Level and Carbon Sources on Biofloc Nutritive Values, Bacterial Abundance, and Growth Performances of Whiteleg Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) Juveniles
Abdallah Tageldein Mansour,Ola Awad Ashry,Mohamed L. Ashour,Ahmed Saud Alsaqufi,Khaled Ramadan,Zaki Zaki Sharawy +5 more
TL;DR: A bio-floc technology-based 75-day indoor growth trial in an 80 L glass aquaria was conducted to evaluate the effects of two different carbon sources (sugarcane bagasse, SB, and wheat flour, WF) on the biofloc composition, bacterial abundance, and growth of whiteleg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) juveniles (0.23 ± 0.04 g) as discussed by the authors .

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.

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.

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.
