Determination of stocking density on vannamei (Litopenaeus vannamei) fingerling with biofloc technology for improving growth and feed efficiency

Research Purposes

This  research aimed to determine a stocking density of vannamei shrimp in fingerling with biofloc system to optimize growth and feed supply.

Research Purposes
The research is designed to obtain following outputs:

1. The output of research is the optimum level of stocking density for shrimp culture under biofloc technology.

2.   A research publication in either reputable national journal or Scopus-indexed journa.

Conclusion

The research revealed that biofloc technology in aquarium can be filled with shrimp at density up to 144 shrimp/m². This conforms with farmer’s practice in Indonesia using density of 80-200 shrimp/m², suggesting that the biofloc system is applicable with shrimp farming in Indonesia.
