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.

Proximate composition and flesh quality of red bellied pacu, Piaractus brachypomus, cultured in two different closed systems

TL;DR: Chemical and sensory characteristics of red bellied pacu cultured in two types of intensive systems, Heterotrophic System with zero water exchange and Recirculating Aquaculture System (RAS), and compare them to those cultured in a semi intensive flowthrough system (control).

Enhancing Shrimp Aquaculture Sustainability Through Water Reuse and Biological Treatment

TL;DR: Results from studies revealed that the marine shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, can be raised in freshwater effluent when supplemented with specific ions and wet microbial flocs fed directly to shrimp can enhance growth in shrimp fed a restricted ration of commercial feed.

Sludge Valorization from Biofloc-Based Aquaculture Systems for Bioremediation of Crude Oil-Contaminated Sediment

TL;DR: The hypothesis that indigenous bacteria can be used as bioremediation agent but needed more adaptation time compared to the mesocosms that have been inoculated by exogenous bacteria is supported.

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.
