DOI: 10.1007/s10499-018-0321-8
Abstract: Biofloc-based systems use little water and may recycle nutrients through the water column microbial community; fish-free diets may be more ecologically and financially sustainable than traditional feeds. A 12-week study examined the effects of biofloc… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquaculture.2019.04.055
Abstract: Abstract Biofloc systems are microbial mature environments that are potentially less conducive disease outbreaks. We hypothesized that the way in which biofloc microbial communities are managed determines the level of disease protection. To investigate such… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.aquaculture.2019.734574
Abstract: Abstract Intensification of aquaculture production systems requires more nutritionally complete diets to maximize productive performance, metabolic processes and overall fish health. In previous studies, dietary supplementation with choline (both choline chloride and phosphatidylcholine) improved productive… read more here.
