Millions of people depend directly or indirectly on fisheries and aquaculture for their livelihood. Fish provide people the necessary animal protein, nutrients, and micronutrients. A suitable approach is needed to protect aquaculture. The fish stocks are not properly maintained due to various reasons. Especially, agricultural pollution has reduced fish stocks. It has become extremely important [...]
Aquaculture farmers know that Dissolved Oxygen (DO) in water is the single most important factor in water quality and management. However, the most common question is – how much aeration do I need to give in my pond? But truly, the real question is “How much ‘artificial or forced’ aeration do I need to give [...]
Proper aeration solutions are of immense importance for aquaculture. With the advancement of technology newer and modern aeration systems have come up which provide much better results both in the short and long term. The fish/shrimp farmers get a lot of benefits on the installation of the modern systems for aeration since the running and [...]
The fish farmers are very much concerned about the survival and the growth rate of fishes in the nurseries. This is because the growth as well as the survival rate of the fishes play a significant role in the overall fish production during fish farming. Thus, it becomes extremely important to go for proper aeration [...]
If you are into the business of production of shrimps and fishes then you might be looking forward to increase your margin of profit. One of the best ways to do so is nothing but reduction of the cost of production. If the cost of production for the shrimps, fishes etc. can be reduced, then [...]
A unique aeration tube made from elastomeric compound If made from elastomeric compound, an aeration tube seldom fouls. In comparison to a regular aeration tube, where a slight rupture can facilitate the penetration of biological solids inside the system, an elastomeric compound-based aeration tube ensures a 4 times protection. An aeration tube made from elastomeric [...]
The final phase of aquaculture production occurs in grow out ponds where juveniles are grown to adulthood. For a healthy fish/shrimp yield it is essential that the DO levels are maintained and the ammonia levels are monitored and under control. High Flow Tube by AirOxi Tube is an ideal solution to install in a grow [...]
A better aquaculture aeration is vital for healthy fish growth and life. Inadequate oxygen level makes fish and aquaculture life become stressed making their growth rate slow. Further, lack of oxygen at the bottom of the pond will allow the build-up of fish waste and other organic nutrients. The material decays can further lead to [...]
It is a well known fact that best aeration systems promote excellent fish health and high yield. When you set up or install an aeration system, you must be really vigilant to follow the right method of approach. Incorrectly installed systems do not offer you the expected results. What are the most important things to [...]
In ponds, ammonia is produced by excretion of fishes, crustaceans, microbial decomposition of organic materials, urea and ammonium fertilizers, supplementary feed etc. Unionized ammonia fraction is more toxic to fish. A concentration of 0.02-0.05 mg l-1 of unionized ammonia is safe for fishes. The concentration of unionized ammonia increases with increasing pH and temperature and [...]
