Immobilized nitrifying bacterial consortium for improving water quality, survival and growth of Penaeus monodon Fabricius 1798 postlarvae in hatchery system

The exposure of shrimp postlarvae (PL) to toxic compounds such as ammonia leads to stress, diseases and mortality. In this study, a consortium of immobilized nitrifying bacteria M1 was tested for its efficacy in reducing total ammonia nitrogen (TAN) and nitrite nitrogen (NO2-N) so as to improve the...
