“…The values were still in the optimum levels which were identified as appropriate to the penaeid shrimp culture condition (Manan et al, 2020). The similar finding also was achieved by Esparza‐Leal et al (2020) who reported that values of temperature, DO, salinity and pH were not significantly different among the control and biofloc treatments ( p > 0.05). The nutrient level of total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) and nitrate (NO 3 − ) also was lower from biofloc treatments from the present study.…”

Biofloc technology was known to improve the shrimp growth performance and water quality in several ways. The application of bacterial booster was proven to accelerate the development of biofloc in the culture treatments as well as help improve the water quality, shrimp growth performance and yield production. Due to its importance, a study was conducted to identify the effect of biofloc application using Rapid BFTTM microbial booster formulation versus clear water system to improve shrimp growth performance and water quality condition. Study was conducted for 80 days with every 7 days of interval of data collection. Overall, biofloc treatments were identified successfully in improving the shrimp growth performance and also effectively reduced the nutrient concentrations of total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) from the biofloc culture treatments until the end of culture periods. Nitrate (NO3−) from biofloc treatments was also identified in lower concentration as compared to control of clear water system. The average daily growth (ADG) was at 0.12g much better from biofloc treatments as compared to control with ADG 0.08g of clear water system. The specific growth rate (SGR) was 5.47%/day in biofloc and 2.82%/day in control treatments which identified higher and much better from biofloc about 2.65%/day differences between biofloc and clear water. Meanwhile, the final body weight achieved was much higher from biofloc about 9.55 grams compared with control about 7.06 grams from the same day of culture, DOC80 which recorded at the end of cultured period. The first sampling was started at DOC7 where the average initial weight of shrimp in biofloc treatment was 0.117 grams and 0.077 grams identified in control. The highest biomass achieved from biofloc treatments also much better around 11.0 kg compared with control that produced 7.1 kg as the higher biomass produced. There was only yellow and green colony of Vibrio identified from the TCBS culture and no occurrence of luminescent colony from harmful Vibrio harveyi detected. Therefore, it can be concluded that biofloc technology of Rapid BFTTM help improves the water quality of ammonia nitrogen level in water columns and inhibits pathogenic Vibrio to the culture species as well as help improving the shrimp growth performances in more effective way.

“…This was reflected in their lower survival rate (83.3%) when compared to other groups (93.3% survival rates for groups 1 and 15 , and 100% for groups 25 and 35 , p < 0.05). They then further revealed that PL at earlier ages, such as PL22, would be more sensitive to the salinity changes than those at older ages as salinity stress tests showed that survival rates were 0% with PL22 and improved progressively with PL37 and PL67 (Esparza-Leal et al, 2020).…”

BALOs Improved Gut Microbiota Health in Postlarval Shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) After Being Subjected to Salinity Reduction Treatment

et al. 2020

White shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei, is a widely farmed species. In China, shrimp postlarvae (PL) are frequently subjected to salinity reduction treatment to meet end growers' needs. However, although this treatment effectively reduces vibrio counts, its impact on gut microbiota health is still unknown. In this study, we applied a euryhaline strain of BALOs, BDN-1F2 (BD), and Bacillus subtilis (SD) to the rearing of secondgeneration shrimp PL after salinity reduction treatment so as to determine if they could impact PL gut microbiota by using high-throughput sequencing analysis. Results show that PL gut microbiota, both compositionally and functionally, have been badly wrecked after salinity reduction treatment with the generally recognized as opportunistic pathogens Gammaproteobacteria being the only dominant class at day 1 of test, viz., 99.43, 85.61, and 83.28% in BD, SD, and control (CD) groups, respectively. At day 7, Gammaproteobacteria was still the only dominant class in the SD and CD groups with relative abundance of 99.77 and 99.87% correspondingly, whereas in the BD group, its value dropped to 8.44%. Regarding biodiversity parameter the Shannon index, over the 7-day test period, while the SD group was unchanged (0.98-0.93), the CD group dropped to 0.94 from 2.94, and the BD group was raised to 7.14 from 0.93. Functionally, compared to control, the SD group displayed similar strength of various predicted community functions, but the BD group had hugely enhanced its various capabilities (p < 0.05). These results demonstrated that the addition of BDN-1F2 had exceedingly improved PL gut microbiota health by raising its biodiversities and strengthening its functionalities. On reviewing data derived from this as well as relevant studies, a Shannon index cutoff value was tentatively suggested so as to differentiate microbiota-healthy PL7-15 from the unhealthy ones. Furthermore, a conceptual mechanism of BALOs in the rectification/improvement of the microbial community health has also been proposed.

“…A number of biotic factors, including stocking size and density, supplemental feed and natural food availability have been reported to affect biofloc production, efficiency and use for shrimp aquaculture (Xu & Pan 2014a;Zhu et al 2016;Esparza-Leal et al 2020). Abiotic factors, including temperature, oxygen, pH, alkalinity, light exposure, total nitrogen, ammonia, nitrite and nitrate, also play a similar role in shrimp production in BFT systems (Hostins et al 2015;Pi erri et al 2015;.…”

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.
