“…On the other hand, growth of plant was dependent on nutrient content that was relatively low in fish farm effluent (Naylor et al 2003;Ruenglertpanyakul et al 2004). In the present study, I. aquatica grew slowly when water temperature was above 258C and concentration of nutrients was relatively low before September.…”

“…The rice with 20% coverage rate had the largest specific removal rate (rate/biomass) of TN and TP in eutrophic water (Song et al 1998). The specific removal rate was highest at 25% stocking density of duckweed (Ruenglertpanyakul et al 2004). In the present farming system, vegetable with onesixth covered area of the fishponds efficiently removed nutrient and improve water quality.…”

“…However, when water temperature was below 258C and concentrations of TN, TP and COD increased a high level on September, the vegetable was in good condition and developed rapidly.

“…Aquaculture effluents with enhanced nutrients caused rising concern due to eutrophication of environment (Carpenter et al 1998;Ruenglertpanyakul et al 2004). In China, fishponds with static water and earthen-bottom were mostly open or semi-open farm system.…”

Nutrient-rich effluents caused rising concern due to eutrophication of aquatic environment by utilization of a large amount of formula feed. Nutrient removal and water quality were investigated by planting aquatic vegetable on artificial beds in 36-m 2 concrete fishponds. After treatment of 120 days, 30.6% of total nitrogen (TN) and 18.2% of total phosphorus (TP) were removed from the total input nutrients by 6-m 2 aquatic vegetable Ipomoea aquatica. The concentrations of TN, TP, chemical oxygen demand (COD) and chlorophyll a in planted ponds were significantly lower than those in non-planted ponds (P , 0.05). Transparency of water in planted ponds was much higher than that of control ponds. No significant differences in the concentration of total ammonia nitrogen (TAN), nitrate nitrogen (NO 2 3 -N) and nitrite nitrogen (NO 2 2 -N) were found between planted and non-planted ponds. These results suggested that planting aquatic vegetable with one-sixth covered area of the fishponds could efficiently remove nutrient and improve water quality.

Shrimp polyculture is not yet a common practice among farmers; however, this activity represents an important alternative to solving and ⁄ or minimizing some of the problems that shrimp aquaculture has faced in the past two decades (environmental pollution, diseases and decreasing prices). In this context, many benefits have been achieved with some polyculture practices. Several species from diverse trophic levels have the potential to be co-cultured with shrimps. A good knowledge of the species that are candidates for polyculture and an adequately designed culture system are the most important points to consider when co-culturing shrimp with other species. The present paper is a review of the past, present and future of shrimp polyculture with other organisms.
