<b>Feeding Nile tilapia with artificial diets and dried bioflocs biomass

Abstract: The effects of supplying dried bioflocs biomass to Nile tilapia juveniles were investigated in the present work. Fish were stocked in experimental rearing tanks for eight weeks. Selected variables of water quality, growth performance and effluent quality were evaluated. Fish were given different combinations of artificial diets and biofloc biomass, in wet (in natura) or dry form. As the supply of artificial diet decreased, the allowance of biofloc biomass increased in the same proportion. Biofloc biomass was p… Show more

“…The bioflocs alone are not suitable for aquatic nutrition; they can be given to aquatic species as wet biofloc along with artificial diet. Pacific white shrimp grows better in the presence of artificial food and biofloc compared with whenever it uses only biofloc or formolated diet (Caldini, Cavalcante, Rocha Filho, & Sa, ; Khanjani et al, ). Recently, studies have been conducted on the probiotic effect of biofloc, which positive results on growth performance and survival of Pacific white shrimp have been confirmed (Aguilera‐Rivera et al, ; Krummenauer, Poersch, et al, ; Krummenauer, Samocha, et al, ).…”

“…In this regard, Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ) is known for the omnivorous feeding habit, which allows them to utilize BFT efficiently as a source of protein and carbohydrates [ 6 ]. BFT contains about 30% crude protein, covering up to 50% of tilapia’s protein needs and protein sparing of aquafeed [ 7 , 8 ]. Furthermore, BFT offers a natural probiotic effect through the presence of beneficial microorganisms and their cell components, which act as growth-promoting and immunostimulant factors.…”

“…The different result that had been reported caused by different fish species, feeding management, design construction, retention times, and plant species affect the different removal efficient [4]. The optimum range such as temperature (16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30) o C), pH (5.5-7.5), ammonia (<30). Nitrite (<1), nitrate (-), and dissolved oxygen (>3) for plant growth have been reported [27].…”
