“…There have been a few other studies on long-term growth and survival of this species in low salinities 3,11,14,17 , but there are no reports on the effects of varying hardness levels in low salinity waters. However, some earlier stud- ies have shown the importance of ions, especially Mg 2+ and K + in successful rearing of L. vannamei in low salinity waters 7,19 . PL reared in low salinity well water at 4 ppt, supplemented with KCl and MgCl 2 was reported to show higher survival than animals reared in low salinity water without mineral supplements 7 .…”

Low salinity rearing of Litopenaeus vannamei requires the transfer of postlarvae (PL) from high salinity hatchery systems to low salinity conditions. In order to determine effective transfer methods, fifteenday-old postlarvae (PL15) were acclimated from a salinity of 30 ppt to endpoint salinities of 1 and 5 ppt using single-step and gradual salinity reduction procedures. Higher survival rates were obtained with gradual acclimation than with single-step acclimation. Survival of PL15 acclimated to 5 ppt was better than that of PL15 acclimated to 1 ppt. Survival of PL15 and juvenile stages in various low salinity treatments ranging from 0-5 ppt was also compared. In the PL stage, survival rates were good (>85%) in salinities over 1.5 ppt. Tolerance to low salinities increased with age and survival rate of juveniles (65%) was higher than that of PL (2%) in freshwater. In our long-term growth trials of juvenile shrimp maintained in different salinities, optimal growth comparable to that in normal seawater was observed in animals reared in a salinity of 5 ppt, demonstrating that L. vannamei can be successfully cultured in low-salinity inland systems.

“…F-IGSW was prepared by amending R-IGSW with commercial grade Muriate of Potash (KCl) and Magnesium Chloride (MgCl 2 .6H 2 O) as per the following formulae based on Davis, Boyd, Rouse, and Saoud (2005). The amount of potassium and magnesium were calculated by the following equations:…”

“…The ionic supplementation was found effective in improving the growth and survival of various marine species such as grey mullet, Mugil cephalus (Barman, Jana, Garg, Bhatnagar, & Arasu, 2005), mulloway, Argyrosomus japonicas (Doroudi, Fielder, Allan, & Webster, 2006), Australian snapper, Pagrus auratus (Fielder, Bardsley, & Allan, 2001), western king prawn, Penaeus latisulcatus (Prangnell & Fotedar, 2006), black tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon (Tantulo & Fotedar, 2006) Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Roy et al, 2010) (Dinh & Fotedar, 2016). The Pacific white shrimp, L. vannamei is a brackish water species cultured in coastal areas as a valuable aquaculture commodity with high export demand and has been recognized as a candidate species for inland saline aquaculture (Davis, Saoud, McGraw, & Rouse, 2002). In order to maximize the growth and survival of shrimps, ionic manipulation of raw IGSW with K + and Mg 2+ is done with commercial grade muriate of potash (KCl) and magnesium chloride respectively in commercial inland saline shrimp farms (Roy et al, 2010).…”

“…Therefore, the major limiting minerals in inland saline shrimp culture such as K + and Mg 2+ could be met through diet. Furthermore, growth and survival of marine shrimps reared in low saline waters could be improved by dietary supplementation of minerals (Davis et al, 2002;Roy et al, 2010). The ions supplementation in the feed is more economically feasible method than that of the water, and it can increase the profit upto 15% (Iffat, 2016).…”

-The cultivation of Litopenaeus vannamei has increased in inland areas by using low salinity waters. Cultivation techniques in coastal waters are well developed, however, studies for low salinity conditions are needed, especially regarding the ideal ionic composition of water and its effects on the zootechnical indices. Brazil has adopted this strategy and the semiarid region showed great potential due to its favorable climate and water conditions. Thus, experimental cultivations were conducted in Serra Talhada, State of Pernambuco, in order to evaluate the influence of two feeding strategies (with and without feeding) and three cultivation densities (5, 10 and 15 shrimps m , temperature ~28.09°C, pH ~8.48) and the shrimp growth were monitored with weekly biometry during the cultivation. A significant difference was found only in the treatment without feeding with 15 shrimps m -2 , the average final weight of all treatments ranged from 13.16±1.33 g to 15.50±1.66 g. The survival rates were high in the treatments with feeding and its variation between treatments was 60.56±6.76% and 83.00±4.00%.Key words: Litopenaeus vannamei. Low salinity. Semiarid. CULTIVO DO CAMARÃO MARINHO, SOB DIFERENTES DENSIDADES DE ESTOCAGEM E ALIMENTAÇÃO, EM ÁGUAS OLIGOHALINASRESUMO -O cultivo do Litopenaeus vannamei vem sendo ampliado nas áreas interioranas, fazendo uso de águas com baixa salinidade. As técnicas de cultivo em águas costeiras já estão bastante desenvolvidas, porém em condições de baixa salinidade são necessários vários estudos, como a composição iônica ideal da água e seus efeitos sobre os índices zootécnicos. O Brasil tem adotado essa estratégia e o semiárido surge como uma região de grande potencial, já que dispõe de clima e condições hídricas favoráveis. Desta forma, cultivos experimentais foram realizados no município de Serra Talhada -PE, com o objetivo de avaliar a influência de duas estratégias de alimentação (com e sem ração) e três densidades de cultivo (5, 10 e 15 camarões.m . A estocagem foi realizada com juvenis de 8,53 g, o cultivo teve duração de 50 dias e os animais foram alimentados duas vezes por dia com ração comercial, contendo 25% de proteína bruta, monitorada a qualidade da água (salinidade±1,0 g.L -1 ; temperatura ± 28,09 ºC; pH ± 8,48; entre outros) e crescimento dos camarões durante o cultivo, com biometrias semanais. Foi detectada diferença significativa apenas no tratamento sem ração com 15 camarões.m -2 , o peso médio final entre todos os tratamentos variou de 13,16±1,33 g a 15,50±1,66 g. As taxas de sobrevivências foram melhores nos tratamentos com ração, a variação entre os tratamentos foi de 60,56±6,76% e 83,00±4,00%.Palavras-chave: Litopenaeus vannamei. Baixa salinidade.
