Characterization of microorganisms in biofloc formation of pacific white leg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) in grow-out pond

Abstract

An environmental friendly technology known as Biofloc Techology (BFT) has been developed to reduce environmental damages and optimise production of aquaculture industry. In BFT, microbial communities in biofloc are responsible in eliminating water exchange and producing microbial proteins that can be used as supplementary feed for shrimp culture.
