Aeration is one of the most discussed—and misunderstood—topics in shrimp farming. Most farmers don’t search for product names or technologies. They search for solutions to problems they see in their ponds. This blog answers the real questions shrimp farmers ask about aeration in nurseries and grow-out ponds. Why Do Shrimp Gather Near the Pond Edge [...]
Fish farming is expanding fast across India, and so is the pressure to keep ponds healthy through every season. Whether it’s a carp pond in Bihar, a growing pangasius cluster, or an intensive tank near a city market, one thing stays constant: dissolved oxygen (DO) decides growth, survival, feed conversion, and water quality. When oxygen [...]
In a landmark alliance for Indian aquaculture farmers, AirOxi is proud to announce its partnership with US-based Newterra to bring the AIRE-O2® Series II aspirator-aerator to the Indian market. This collaboration leverages decades of global aeration expertise and India-specific aquaculture design know-how to deliver next-level performance. Why the Partnership Matters The global aeration brand AIRE-O2 [...]
In modern aquaculture the mantra is increasingly clear: “Oxygen drives production.” Whether you’re operating an earthen pond, a lined system, a high-density biofloc tank, or a recirculatory aquaculture (RAS) setup, achieving and maintaining optimal dissolved oxygen (DO) levels is vital. But why exactly is oxygen so important, how does it work in ponds, and how [...]
As India’s aquaculture sector rapidly evolves, the focus has shifted from traditional open pond farming to more controlled, intensive, and high-density systems like biofloc, recirculatory aquaculture systems (RAS), and modular hatcheries. Today’s fish and shrimp farmers understand that the path to greater harvests—with better feed conversion ratios, faster growth cycles, and improved survival—depends heavily on [...]
Introduction In aquaculture—whether fish ponds, shrimp farms, biofloc systems, or recirculating systems—maintaining adequate dissolved oxygen (DO) is vital for healthy growth, survival, and feed utilization. Poor aeration can lead to stress, disease, or mass mortality events. But how much aeration is “enough”? That’s where a tool like the AirOxi Aeration Calculator becomes invaluable for aqua [...]
Introduction In modern aquaculture, Intensive Pond Raceway Systems (IPRS) have emerged as a sustainable alternative to traditional pond culture. By confining fish in raceways built inside ponds, farmers can achieve higher stocking density, improved water quality management, and better feed conversion ratios (FCRs). However, success in IPRS largely depends on consistent and efficient aeration — [...]
Introduction Cage culture has become one of the most promising methods for aquaculture worldwide. By placing cages or enclosures in lakes, rivers, reservoirs, or coastal waters, farmers can produce fish at high densities while conserving land and water resources. Unlike ponds, cages rely on the surrounding natural water body for exchange of oxygen and waste [...]
In modern aquaculture, proper aeration is the backbone of healthy and productive ponds and tanks. Whether you're raising shrimp in biofloc systems or fish in Growout ponds, the type of aeration tube you use can make a big difference in water quality, oxygen transfer, and overall yield. To help farmers make the best decisions, AirOxi [...]
In aquaculture, water quality is everything. One of the most critical parameters that affects fish health and productivity is dissolved oxygen (DO). Low oxygen levels can cause stress, slow growth, and even lead to fish kills. That’s why a Dissolved Oxygen (DO) meter is one of the most valuable tools in your kit. But like any precision instrument, [...]
