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:

Heterotrophic versus mixed BFT system: Impacts on water use, suspended solids production and growth performance of Litopenaeus vannamei
Hellyjúnyor Brandão,Íris Vasconcelos Xavier,Gabriel Keiti Koike Santana,Henrique Jun Koike Santana,Dariano Krummenauer,Wilson Wasielesky +5 more
TL;DR: Results show that adopting a mixed heterotrophic/chemoautotrophic biofloc system improves shrimp growth performance, optimize water use and decrease solids production.
Journal ArticleDOI
THE EFFECTS OF ADDING DIFFERENT CARBON ON GROWTH AND SURVIVAL RATE OF TILAPIA FRY (Oreochromis niloticus)
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a completely randomized design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 3 replications to determine the effect on adding the different carbon sources for growth and survival rate of tilapia fries (Oreochromis niloticus).

A Bioaugmentation Agent in Super Intensive Marine Shrimp Farming System with Zero Water Exchange
Salência Hr,Mouriño Jlp,Ferreira Gs,Rafael Arantes,Ubert M,Katt Regina Lapa,Walter Quadros Seiffert +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the feasibility of using Comambio® commercial product for bioremediation, in superintensive system of Litopenaeus vannamei with zero water exchange, was evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Taxonomy of Means and Ends in Aquaculture Production—Part 4: The Mapping of Technical Solutions onto Multiple Treatment Functions
TL;DR: The article views the aquaculture production system as a transformation process with three sets of functions, input, treatment and output, and their effect on treatment function was mapped using a quality function deployment (QFD).

Comparative study on the performance of genetically improved rohu “Jayanti” and native rohu, Labeo rohita fingerlings reared in biofloc system
Nirali P. Vadhel,Juned Pathan,Vivek Shrivastava,Nitin Akolkar,Sujit Kumar,Chandra Kanta Misra,Kanta Das Mahapatra +6 more
TL;DR: The study revealed that, genetically improved Labeo rohita (Jayanti rohu), appears to be a better suitable strain to culture under BFT systems compared to native rohu.

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.

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.
