Manual- vs automated data collection
On many fish farms, several water quality parameters (including toxic free CO2) are only measured manually at fixed times or in selected tanks. The water quality is fluctuating daily and are often following rhythmic patterns. With this method, you will often miss the peaks and therefore create a misleading result of a satisfying, stable CO2-level. This white paper compares and analyzes two ...

Monitoring Ozone (in the air) in Hatchery & Fish Farm Ozone Injection Systems
Hatcheries, fish farms and such in the aquaculture industry require clean water to maintain a high survival rate while rearing aquatic animals. Contaminated water increases the risk of infection which in turn can compromise production. A common way to disinfect water is by generating ozone on-site with an ozone generator, which is commonly inside an ozone generator room. For human safety, the ...

Modifications of macrobenthos assemblages on land–based fish farm phytotreatment basins in the Orbetello lagoon
In the Orbetello lagoon basin there are some intensive land–based fish–farming facilities which contribute to cause a significant cyclic development of the opportunistic chorophycea Ulva laetevirens, and consequent serious decay events in spring and summer. To minimise the nutrients' impact, fish farming was supplied with phytotreatment system. The purpose of this study was to ...
