Biofloc Based Fish Farming Who is the Founder of Biofloc Based Fish Farming? Professor Yoram Avnimelech from Israel is one of the founders of Biofloc technology. He is the author, among others, of the book entitled “Biofloc Technology – A Practical Guide Book,” which was translated into Vietnamese. He is working as Professor Ameritus in the Faculty of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Israel Institute of Technology. He has worked for a few years on the development of the Biofloc Technology (BFT), and wrote a manual on this system (3 editions, almost all sold out). He gave a number of courses on biofloc...

CALCULATOR FOR BIOFLOC TECHNOLOGY (BFT)
Posted by HANGSHAKALI CHAKRABORTY on
During the starting of the culture period, high carbon-to-nitrogen ratio (12–20:1) in water is a key factor to promote and stabilize the heterotrophic community in Biofloc Technology. The following calculator can be used to calculate the amount of molasses need to bee added in the tank. For the maintenance phase, the monitoring of TAN values is an important tool for water quality maintenance. When values of TAN are higher than 1.0 mg per Litre, external carbon source application is recommended with a C:N ratio of 6:1. The molasses requirement in the tank during the maintenance phase can be calculated using...

IDEAL POND WATER AND SOIL PARAMETERS FOR AQUACULTURE
Posted by HANGSHAKALI CHAKRABORTY on
The optimum range of soil and water parameters are important for maximum growth of fish in ponds. The productivity of any pond can be estimated just by measuring the physicochemical parameters of the ponds. There are many organic ways available to correct any deviation in the pond parameters.
Dactylogyrosis Disease in Biofloc Tank?
Posted by HANGSHAKALI CHAKRABORTY on
It causes serious infection in fishes and mainly carps and related species are more likely to be affected by the parasites mainly in biofloc systems. This disease may not create much havoc if the salinity of the biofloc system is maintained carefully. However, in a system, when where salinity is not maintained for the tanks, gill flukes may result in havoc. The fluke infestation may come to your tank from infected seeds of hatcheries or nurseries. Quarantine or disease-free seeds are always advisable to be used for the culture systems
