“…The major studies on evaluation of stocking density were observed on various tropical as well as temperate shes and also in different culture systems. The similar effect of crowding stress on growth and feed utilization was also observed in common carp, Cyprinus carpio [25][26][27] ; grass carp, Ctenopharyngodon idella 28,29 ; olive barb, Puntius sarana 7 ; Amazon sh, Colossoma macropomum 30 and Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus 31,32 . On contrary, many authors could not establish any relation between stocking density and growth attributes in silver perch, Bidyanus bidyanus 33 , Atlantic sturgeon, Acipenser oxyrinchus 34 .…”

The present study was conducted for 240 days to evaluate the effects of stocking density based on growth attributes, digestive enzymes, muscular composition, biochemical and physiological responses of Labeo rohita fingerlings in tropical inland open water cages. L. rohita (30.35±1.08 g) were randomly distributed into three treatments, namely low stocking density, LSD (10 m− 3), medium stocking density, MSD (20 m− 3) and high stocking density, HSD (30 m− 3) in triplicates. Fish were fed twice daily with CIFRI CAGEGROW® floating feed (crude protein-28%, crude fat-4%). Fish growth and feed efficiency was higher (P<0.05) in LSD, however MSD registered higher yield. Amylase and protease activity reduced whereas lipase activity increased with increasing stocking density. Muscle crude protein and crude fat formed inverse correlation. The fillet quality deteriorated at higher stocking densities based on Muscle pH, drip loss and frozen leakage rate. The stress biomarkers level (glucose, cortisol, superoxide dismutase and catalase) increased in serum under crowding condition. Glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase and glutamate pyruvate transaminase in serum was significantly increased in HSD. Serum protein level decreased with increase in stocking densities. Body ionic imbalance (Na+, Cl− and K+) observed under crowding stress. Based on growth attributes and multiple biomarker responses, L. rohita @ 10 m− 3 found to be optimum density for inland open water cage culture.

“…Periphyton technology can also be used to remove organic and inorganic wastes, enhance natural food production for farmed organisms and improve the quality of culture water (Azim et al 2001;Tammam et al 2020). In this technology, sessile autotrophic and heterotrophic aquatic biota, comprising bacteria, fungi, protozoa, phytoplankton, zooplankton, benthic organisms and a wide range of invertebrates, are developed on submerged substrates and used as natural foods for fish and shrimps (Azim et al 2001).…”

“…Maintaining optimum C/N ratio is also necessary for the optimization and enhancement of periphyton production in pond-based aquaculture. Periphyton is generally used for raising herbivorous, omnivorous and filter-feeding fish and crustaceans, such as tilapia (Tammam et al 2020), mullets (Richard et al 2010) and freshwater prawn (Uddin et al 2006).…”

In face of the shortage of, and competition with, land and water, the sustainability of aquaculture will have to depend on vertical development, through improving production environments, increasing productivity and enhancing aquaculture technologies. Biofloc technology (BFT) has emerged as new alternative for sustainable aquaculture, which could contribute to FAO Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to food security. Extensive research has been carried out on the development and application of BFT in aquaculture since early 1990s, with emphasis on shrimp culture. Over 40% of BFT publications in aquaculture were directed to shrimp farming. Therefore, I strongly believe that the accumulated knowledge on the applications of BFT in shrimp farming and the experience gained, especially during the last 10 years (2010–2020), are now more than worthy of critical review and analysis. This review summarizes the most update knowledge on the use of BFT in different marine shrimp and freshwater prawn aquaculture. Emphasis has been on factors affecting shrimp production in BFT systems, integration of biofloc‐based shrimp farming with other aquatic farmed species, nutritional value of bioflocs as a natural food or feed ingredient for farmed shrimp and prawn, the application of BFT in different rearing phases, the use of biofloc as a natural probiotics and their effects on shrimp health and physiological functions, economic considerations and commercial applications of BFT‐based shrimp aquaculture, and the major challenges facing shrimp farming in biofloc systems.
