“…Although the application of biosecurity measures (Burford, Thompson, McIntosh, Bauman & Pearson ) allowed this increase in production, culture of this species is still plagued by viral diseases (Lightner ). This issue has led to massive mortality and, in several cases, to endemic infections (Costa, Fraga, Andreatta, Marques & Zamparetti ). Recently, Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Syndrome (AHPNS) caused by Vibrios became an obstacle in some farming regions of Asia and Latin America, leading to losses in shrimp production (Tran, Nunan, Redman, Mohney, Pantoja, Fitzsimmons & Lightner ).…”

Soybean molasses as an organic carbon source in the farming of Litopenaeus vannamei (Boone, 1931) in a biofloc system

et al. 2016

Soybean molasses was evaluated as a partial replacement for sugarcane molasses as a carbon source for biofloc development in the superintensive culture of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei). A 50-day study was conducted with juvenile (3.2 g) shrimp stocked in 16 800 L tanks at a stocking density of 250 shrimp m À3 . Control of total ammonia concentration was performed by the addition of combined mixtures of soybean and sugarcane molasses to the culture water. Three different molasses treatments were evaluated using different soybean-to-sugarcane molasses ratios: 15-85%, 38-62% and 60-40% respectively. The control group was treated only with sugarcane molasses. Water quality, chlorophyll a concentration, heterotrophic bacterial load, Vibrio spp. concentration and zootechnical indexes were all evaluated. Total ammonia concentration was controlled by heterotrophic and chemotrophic pathways. Biofloc formation, as quantified by measuring the total suspended solids, was not altered. The Vibrio spp. concentration showed a significant reduction in treatments with soybean-to-sugarcane molasses ratios of 38-62% and 60-40%. All combined mixtures of soybean and sugarcane molasses could maintain water quality and productivity in the superintensive culture of L. vannamei using the biofloc system. Thus, the potential use of a residue from agroindustry as a carbon source in a biofloc culture is demonstrated.
