Health & Welfare
Optimized aeration strategies, effective microbial functions and waste management and stable biofloc performance can improve L. vannamei culture.
Health & Welfare
Aquafarmers should monitor and manage various water quality parameters to ensure they remain within acceptable limits for the species being cultured.
Health & Welfare
Study provides guidelines to optimize shrimp stocking density in biofloc systems with limited water exchange to balance productivity with sustainability.
Health & Welfare
Adequate water quality for fish and shrimp farming is essential for controlling feeding rates, phytoplankton density and several other key parameters.
Intelligence
CSIRO’s AquaWatch technology "significantly" helped water quality monitoring needed to support aquaculture growth in the Spencer Gulf region.
Innovation & Investment
An experimental airborne system is effective at water quality sampling and monitoring, with superior mobility, safety and lower operating costs.
Health & Welfare
The two probiotics studied degraded ammonia in vitro and in ponds. A magnetic field improved germination and proliferation of Bacillus spores in vitro.
Innovation & Investment
Startup's water quality monitors were deployed in a centuries-old fishpond in Hawaii that had been devoid of aquatic life for 50 years.
Intelligence
A new study from Skoltech examined how water purification affects water quality in recirculating aquaculture systems.
Intelligence
Authors attempt to environmentally assess feeding areas of large shrimp ponds with acoustic feeders, a key step to improving production efficiency.
Innovation & Investment
An excerpt from the April 2022 issue of Aqua Insights looks into the possibilities that Smart water quality sensors provide aquaculture.
Aquafeeds
Inclusion of freeze-dried biofloc at a low rate can help support efficient growth performance while oven-dried biofloc helps manage water quality.
Responsibility
Study looks at how water quality and hydrodynamics vary among Chesapeake Bay oyster farms, as well as the differences inside and outside grow-out areas.
Responsibility
Study evaluates production characteristics, minerals, off-flavors and water quality dynamics on channel catfish reared in used and in new biofloc water.
Responsibility
Fast, easy, reliable method offers great potential for all aquaculture systems There is a widespread need for cultivation-free methods to quantify the viability of microbial communities in aquatic environments. This demand also exists within the aquaculture industry, where rapid and reliable methods for measuring bacterial activity and bioavailable organic matter in water are increasingly required.
