Using BioFloc Technology to Improve Aquaculture Efficiency

Fishes
In the present study, literature information on the functioning of the biofloc technology (BFT) system, its components, the state of the organism of hydrobionts, and water quality is analyzed. It is shown that this technology allows reducing financial costs for water treatment by 30%, increasing the efficiency of protein assimilation in the feed ...
