Ammonia toxicity degrades animal health, growth
An NH3-N concentration of 0.45 mg/L reduced the growth of five species of penaeid shrimp by about 50 percent.
Shrimp necrosis has infectious etiology
Diseased shrimp exhibited skeletal muscle necrosis, indicated by the whitish discoloration of several abdominal segments.
Automatic feeding in shrimp aquaculture
As feed continues to represent the highest-cost input in aquaculture worldwide, the use of automatic feeders is proving to be an important approach to lowering
Study: TSV exposure may lessen YHV effects in white shrimp
While testing indicated the shrimp were infected with the two viruses, TSV was restricted to the lymphoid organs. YHV was found in the cuticular epithelium
Brown seaweed in feed may boost shrimp digestion, disease survival
Adding some types of brown seaweed to shrimp diets may support shrimp through challenges from white spot disease and improve digestive capacity, say researchers
Broodstock nutrition management enhances reproduction, profits
It has long been recognized that the first step in the process of rearing quality animals is to provide increased levels of care and nutrition to the broodstock

Globally, shrimp have been farmed for several decades and there currently is production in at least 50 countries around the world, although the industry
Early feed restriction may program shrimp for growth
Restricting feed to young shrimp may program shrimp and boost growth performance during the juvenile phase, say researchers.
The Sahara Desert and The Midwest Have One Thing in Common: Shrimp
Serious problems plague the global farmed shrimp industry. Modern day slavery, persistent diseases, and habitat destruction are chief among them.
