Water quality, animal performance, nutrient budgets and microbial community in the biofloc-based polyculture system of white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei and gray mullet, Mugil cephalus Universiteit Gent
Shrimp polyculture has not been common practice because it is mostly limited to extensive aquaculture systems. A combination of shrimp-fish polyculture and biofloc technology may have the potential to substitute low intensive shrimp polyculture systems. An indoor trial was conducted to investigate whether a biofloc-based co-culture of Litopenaeus vannamei and Mugil cephalus generates synergistic effects at the level of water quality, animal ...
