Onfarm trial were conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding on pellets with different protein levels in the presence and absence of the bioflocs on water quality, survival and growth of the green tiger shrimp (Penaeus semisulcatus) in intensive types of shrimp culture systems. Five different feeds were formulated. Four biofloc treatments (BFT) and one control were managed in 10 greenhouses e...

Conventional catfish culture in Ogan Ilir (OI) have not optimal production, it can be increased by biofloc and aquaponics with local swamp bacteria as a starter. The purpose of this study was to apply technology combination aquaponic-biofloc increase the productivity (Clarias sp.) rearing. used two ponds, circular pond combined aquaponic (biofloqua) for months. results specific growth rate fish...

Abstract The world aquaculture industry seeks sustainable production strategies to respond the needs of growing population for valuable food. Biofloc technology (BFT) is accepted as a novel method that reduces pollution load on receiving water resources with its zero-water-discharge approach, eliminates extra treatment costs biological cycles, and supports growth performance reared animals ther...

Biofloc technology (BFT) is considered the new “blue revolution” in aquaculture. Such technique is based on in situ microorganism production which plays three major roles: (i) maintenance of water quality, by the uptake of nitrogen compounds generating in situ microbial protein; (ii) nutrition, increasing culture feasibility by reducing feed conversion ratio (FCR) and a decrease of feed costs; ...

Information on dynamics of water quality is essential in fish rearing. The use biofloc technology (BFT) improves production regions with low availability. This study was carried out to evaluate the locally available carbon sources control total ammonia nitrogen and other parameters aquaculture system. Completely randomized design three different (wheat flour, rice bran molasses) four treatments...
