Protecting Aquaculture Ponds Against Winter Fish Kills
Winter is on the way and its low temperatures often threaten fish populations within aquaculture farms. As temperatures decrease, the potential for reduced dissolved oxygen production and ice formation over ponds increases which can lead to winter fish kills. Aquafarmers must be aware of the contributing factors to properly assess their farm’s water conditions and livestock for a successful ...

Protective role of dietary N‐acetylcysteine on the oxidative stress induced by cylindrospermopsin in tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
Cylindrospermopsin (CYN) is a toxin produced by various cyanobacteria species. Fish can be exposed to this cyanotoxin in their natural environments and in aquaculture ponds, and toxic effects can be derived. The present study investigated the effects of dietary N‐acetylcysteine (NAC) on the oxidative stress induced by pure CYN and CYN from lyophilized cells of Aphanizomenon ovalisporum in tilapia ...

Biofloc Systems in Aquaculture: How Harnessing Beneficial Bacteria Is Revolutionizing Aquaculture
With almost eight billion people on earth, the demand for aquatic food is increasing. Aquaculture production is projected to rise from 40 million Metric Tons by 2008 to 82 million Metric Tons in 2050. Moreover, the expansion of aquaculture is also restricted due to land costs and by its strong dependence on fishmeal and fish oil. Additionally, environmental degradation and pollution have been ...

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 ...

Pond fertilization / Aquaculture
Just as fish need good water quality conditions to thrive, they also need an abundant supply of food to grow. We can provide food for our fish in two different ways: We can give them “artificial” feeds that are prepared either commercially or at home, or we can ensure that they have an abundance of natural foods by using fertilizers to increase pond productivity. In either case, it is ...
