The New Shrimp List is created to replace the Yahoo group shrimp list that has been deprecated by Yahoo. This new site will allow anyone interested in the shrimp industry to post, question, search, blog, etc. etc. the new site offers much more flexibility and in time should serve as an extensive knowledge base for anyone who wants to learn more about the shrimp industry.
Signing up is free and simple. you may cancel your membership at any time. All we ask is that you conduct yourself professionally on this professional site.
Hi Michel,
Is biofloc technique complicated for aquafarmers?
Not really. It just uses a lot more horsepower in air blowers with a lot more diffusers plus paddlewheels to keep particulate solids and mixotrophic bacteria (autotrophs and heterotrophs) and other cohabitating... (More)
Hi Rex,
60 kg/cubic meter yield in your RAS data sheet is 2,715 postlarvae/cubic meter initial stocking density harvesting at 85% survival with an average weight of 26gm. Single-phase at 100 DOC.
While at 120 kg/cubic meter yield as indicated... (More)
Algal paste is good for feeding super intensive mass rotifer culture that I have personally witnessed myself while I was on a 10-day official visit on a RAS seabream hatchery in the Middle East.

Just about everything you can imagine under the cold spell of winter in the open outdoor earthen shrimp grow-out ponds.
Some shrimp diseases are more prevalent during winter than in summer. WSSV is one of these…. Studies showed a significant... (More)

The aquaculturist point of view on the good side of protein production from vannamei and monodon farming in terms of feed conversion efficiency is entirely different from the consumer’s perspective based on their preference and buying power.

Hi Basheer,
First things first... the word "remove" in your statement is inappropriate. You do not want to attempt to remove (eliminate) the filamentous algae in the shrimp pond.
You just want to thin them out... only if there is... (More)

Mouhammed ouatek,
You make the design based on your concept… then you either build it yourself if you have an engineering background or you hire an engineer to do it for you.

While it is true that using imported SPF vannamei broodstock demands strict biosecurity maturation management including the use of only imported SPF polychaete… I have used locally obtained indigenous species of polychaete (Eunice philippinensis) for the maturation of wild-caught... (More)
Hi Dr. Kada,
Looks like maggots, if not leeches... Don't look like odonatid insect larvae (dragonfly and damselfly) since the appendages cannot be deciphered when taken out of their aquatic habitat in your images
Either way... Eeew!
Kind regards,... (More)
Hi Dr. Kada,
Those are either Dragonfly Nymphs or Damselfly Nymphs... Very voracious larval stages of Dragonflies and Damselflies.

According to Murray and Eltholth (2018) the pond culture of Penaeus vannamei in Andhra Pradesh is practiced from freshwater (0 salinity) to brackishwater (up to 30 ppt)… however, the average salinity for culturing P. vannamei in Andhra Pradesh is 10... (More)

Hi Fridi,
Finally, someone is updating the total number of shrimp farms in the U.S. from that made by Granvil Treece in 2018 from a Texas perspective.
Keep us updated when you’re done.
Thanks in advance.
