Modest levels of nitrate nitrogen in the 75 to 100 mg/L range
may be more harmful to aquaculture-raised rainbow trout than
producers realize. A team of scientists at the Conservation Funds
Freshwater Institute led by John Davidson documented deformities
and signicant behavioral changes in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus
mykiss) raised in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) with
nitrate nitrogen concentrations at levels less than one-tenth the
recommended maximum nitrate nitrogen level of 1,000 mg/L. They
believe the changes were spurred by chronic exposure to nitrate
nitrogen.
If you see a problem in your system, dont disregard nitrate nitrogen
as a possible cause, warns Davidson.
Davidson and his colleagues almost did exactly that. They had
designed a study comparing recirculating systems with various rates
of water exchange. Where hydraulic retention time was longer and
the feed loading rate was high, nitrate nitrogen and other water
quality parameters grew more concentrated and the researchers
observed sh swimming faster. Many of the sh swam on their
sides, an unusual behavior possibly linked to abnormalities in their
swim bladders or skeletal deformities. Fish in near-zero exchange
recirculation systems also tended to gasp or yawn at the surface
of the water, and had higher rates of skeletal deformities and
mortality than sh in more frequently-refreshed tanks.
The biggest surprise to us as we were trying to determine why
the sh were behaving the way they were was the possibility of a
connection to nitrate nitrogen, says Davidson. Because of the
literature we had been used to reading, we didnt even consider
nitrate nitrogen as a parameter of concern until I plotted it out and
saw a very close correlation.
Davidson and his team published their ndings in Aquacultural
Engineering last autumn.
Health and Welfare
Davidson notes that the conventional limit for nitrate nitrogen in
aquaculture tank water for rainbow trout is based on an LC50
value, a concentration that kills half the population. But sublethal
concentrations may be quietly stealing prots and creating
unhealthy conditions.
If sh are stressed based on a water quality parameter thats
present, that could impact performance in other ways, like feed
conversion or growth rate, he says.
In tanks with low water exchange rates, high feed loading rates and
high nitrate nitrogen concentrations, trout swam as much as
twice as fast

as their counterparts in high-exchange recirculating systems as
fast as 49 cm/sec, well above the speed of the tanks current.
Davidson suspects that sustained fast swimming can lead to higher
oxygen demand, lactic acid buildup in muscle tissue, exhaustion, and
even deformities that contribute to side-swimming behavior.
As soon as you start seeing behavioral changes, youve got to start
thinking about sh welfare, he adds. The aquaculture industry is
working hard to stay ahead of activist groups who are beginning
to set their sights on sh production after attacks on poultry, hog,dairy and beef production, Davidson notes understanding the
appropriate levels of nitrate nitrogen and other parameters will be a
vital step in maintaining sh welfare standards that can withstand
outside scrutiny.
Monitoring Nitrate Nitrogen
Nitrate nitrogen levels can build up in RAS systems rapidly as sh
excrete ammonia nitrogen and bioltration systems convert the
ammonia nitrogen to nitrate and then to nitrate nitrogen. Davidson
and his team monitored nitrate nitrogen levels carefully using two
standard lab testing protocols, as well as with the YSI Professional
Plus handheld, multiparameter meter. He says instant readings from
the handheld meter will be important for staying on top of nitrate
nitrogen levels in commercial settings.
Because nitrate nitrogen appears to be a much more critical water
quality parameter than once thought, I think the Pro Plus with the
nitrate probe could be an important monitoring tool for aquaculture
system managers, particularly for those who operate RAS at
low to near-zero water exchange rates at which nitrate nitrogen
accumulates to relatively high levels, he says. The Pro Plus was
easy to use and calibration of the nitrate probe was simple and
straightforward.
Grab sampling and conducting a lab nitrate nitrogen analysis can
take a half-hour or more in his labs six-tank system, Davidson adds.
Depending on how many tanks you have to do, that adds up, he
says. With the Pro Plus, you can turn the meter on, do a quick
calibration, and drop the probe in the tank water. Thats a pretty big
time savings.
In addition to its nitrate nitrogen measuring capabilities, the Pro Plus
can be equipped with probes for a wide variety of other key water
quality parameters, including dissolved oxygen (DO), conductivity,
specic conductance, salinity, resistivity, total dissolved solids
(TDS), oxidation reduction potential (ORP), ammonium, chloride and
temperature. With YSIs Quatro cable, four probes can be used at
once for DO, temperature, conductivity/salinity, and any two ISEs -
pH, ORP, ammonium, nitrate or chloride.
Davidson found that the Pro Plus nitrate nitrogen readings were quite
close to lab test values no more than a 10 percent difference.
Based on what we saw, it was within the appropriate range to make
an educated decision on whether to reduce nitrate nitrogen levels in
an aquaculture tank, he says.

Oxygen Generating Systems Intl [OGSI] is the leading manufacturer of onsite
oxygen generators. Using Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology, OGSI
offers a complete line of oxygen generators and oxygen cylinder lling plants
(CFPs). They currently have oxygen plants in over 70 countries worldwide,
serving many diverse markets including: sh farming (aquaculture) and ozone
water treatment. The OGSI Aquaculture System is specically designed for
aquaculture applications and is efcient and cost-effective. It enables sh
farms to dissolve oxygen in any size tank. Farms are able to increase stocking
densities. The sh are also healthier and have better taste when raised in
an oxygen rich environment. The investment in an oxygen system is typically
recovered within two years meaning that the return on investment (ROI) is
greater than 50 percent per year.
How it WorksA side stream of water from the raceway, pond or tank is pumped at elevated
pressure through a venturi nozzle, where oxygen is injected. The water becomes
saturated with oxygen and is then distributed through high velocity mixing
nozzles along the bottom surface of the raceway, pond or tank. Oxygen ow
rates can either be manually regulated or automatically controlled using a
dissolved oxygen (DO) analyzer and probe. By closing the loop with a signal
that is fed back from the DO meter, the oxygen system can be turned on and off
automatically, as needed.
Systems Available
The OG-15 Oxygen Generator is a small and convenient turnkey oxygen
generating system. It is safe, dependable and easy to run. Its maintenance-free
operation provides a quick way to meet your immediate oxygen needs. Larger
models are available (Oxygen Generators) to suit the requirements of larger
sh and hatcheries and ponds. The larger models range from 25 SCFH to 5000
SCFH (5tpd).
OGSI has a great deal of experience supplying oxygen to aquaculture facilities
that raise a variety of sh species, among them trout, striped bass, tilapia and
shrimp. The application engineers at OGSI can assess your facilitys operating
needs and design an oxygen system to meet your specic needs.
If oxygen is needed in cylinders for use in transportation or remote handling
cylinder lling plants are available. These are systems that will immediately
eliminate the high cost of delivered oxygen. No more spending valuable time
changing and returning heavy oxygen cylinders. The CFPs can automatically
rell your oxygen cylinders for 24/7 availability and relieve you of yourdependence on delivered oxygen. OGSI offers complete CFPs, with capacities
up to 500 cylinders per day. You can reduce your live haul expenses with these
systems by lling your own cylinders.
Benets of Installing an OGSI Oxygen Generator or Cylinder Filling Plant:
- Increase stock density by maintaining a higher level of Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
- Produce larger quantities of high quality sh
- Increase reproduction rates
- Ensure the avor of sh by providing a clean environment
- Prevent ice from forming during winter months
- Increase the oxygen content over a typical air-fed aerating system
- Ensure uniform DO levels throughout tanks and ponds
- Provide feed gas to an existing ozone generator for disinfection

Are you taking advantage of
a new heater technology to
improve your business and
keep your customers koi and
other sh alive this winter?Until now aquaculture immersion heaters have used an internal
resistance wire as the heat source. Now there are electric immersion
heaters available using PTC (Positive Temperature Coefcient)
ceramic chips as the heat source. Heaters using PTC offer
advantages over traditional resistance heaters including increased
safety, greater reliability, and a lower operating cost.
Electric heaters made with resistance wire:
Traditional immersion heaters use resistance wire as the sourceof heat. Resistance wire is commonly used in toasters and electric
water heaters and is usually a nickel/chromium alloy. It will typically
heat to around 900F.
When an electric immersion heater using resistance wire operates in
air or becomes covered with solid buildup (such as sh waste), the
heat is not able to dissipate quickly enough. This results in a rapid
increase in operating temperature. Elevated temperatures shorten
the heater life and can damage surrounding plastic materials
including pond liners.
To protect these materials from high-temperature damage, electric
immersion heaters often include a built-in heater over-temperature
cutoff device called a protector. The protector senses the surfacetemperature of the heater and trips if it gets too hot. This shuts the
heater off. While the protector is a necessary safety device, a heater
that is shut off may threaten the pond or tank inhabitants.

As Don Campbell, First Ascent Fish Farm, explains, this is one of
his primary concerns with his current equipment. We train our
customers in both programming and care of the heater/controller.
However, too frequently the folks we train are not the folks cleaning
the tanks between deliveries and the heater is not unplugged,leading to a blown fuse [protector].
After a protector has tripped it must be replaced. If there is no
protector onsite, the tank or pond may suffer a loss of heat. For a
supplier or keeper of live sh, this can result in increased mortality.
Electric heaters made with PTC chips:
Electric heaters using PTC chips do not use resistance wire as
a source of heat. Instead, they use PTC (Positive Temperature
Coefcient) chips. When the chip temperature increases, its electrical
resistance also increases, resulting in decreased heat output. As the
PTC chips heat up, they will reach a designed temperature at which
they cannot get any hotter. Thus, PTC chips have a predetermined
temperature limit.
No protectors to replace.
Thermal protectors are not necessary with PTC electric immersion
heaters. Their self-limiting capability offers the safety of a protector
built directly into the heater core. This eliminates downtime caused
by a tripped protector and the need
for replacements.
PTC heaters will not damage tanks or liners.
PTC immersion heaters have a maximum surface temperature of
518F when in air and manufactured with -inch spacers so they
will not damage tank or pond liner materials. They will not damagetanks made from polyethylene (PE), high-density polyethylene
(HDPE), berglass, polypropylene (PP), CPVC or PVC as well as other
materials (see chart).
PTC heaters can operate in air or with solids buildup.
A resistance heater will overheat if operated in air, covered by scale
or solid waste. This elevated temperature can shorten the life of the
heater by several months. With PTC heaters the potential for burnout
is eliminated, thereby increasing service life. (Removing the material
from the surface of the PTC heater or putting it back in water will
raise the heat output accordingly.)
According to Campbell, the advantages offered by PTC heaters,
could pay for themselves in both labor savings and fewer mortalitiesin less than one year.

Introduction
Viral diseases outbreaks in the aquaculture industry and the
negative impact in the environment due to massive water exchange
practices of the traditional pond farming are two of the main
problems the aquaculture industry is facing now. The use of closed
super intensive commercial RAS has become an alternative that can
alleviate these problems.
In managing commercial closed RAS system for shrimp and tilapia
during the last 10 year, I have been facing one common problem
how to keep optimal-high levels of dissolve oxygen during the
whole production cycle? Stocking at high densities and feeding
rates create stress on the system which immediate manifestation
is on the oxygen concentration in the water. In looking at dif ferent
than traditional alternatives (different than traditional blowers,
paddle-wheels, air-lifts, diffusing hoses) I started working back in
2007 with Advanced Industrial Aeration with the commercial use of
TAERATION a non-venturi patent air injection technology that allows
transfer oxygen at higher rates using up to 40% less energy than
more common O2 diffusing systems.
The newly patented non-venturi aeration nozzle uses a centrifugal
pump to draw water from one end of the pond and injects oxygen
at the other end through the TAERATION nozzle. The system
simultaneously aerates, degasses and mixes with one energy source.
Specically, there is an ultra-ne micro bubble with a transfer rate of2.8% per foot of depth which is naturally aspirated delivering an air
to water ratio of 3/1.
This is an entirely new method of aeration that does not require
air blowers. Our Patented Technology transfers so much dissolved
Oxygen that in a clean water test we reach maximum saturation in
the time it takes to ow only half of the containment. Our process
is simple; we draw from one end and inject the water in the other
end through our patented Taeration Nozzle. This exclusive Push-Pull
system allows for complete circulation and De-Stratication of your
containment regardless of shape or depth. Drawing in only ambient
air we are capable of air/water ratios as high as 10 to 1 and are
achieving this using a fraction of the Horse Power used by all
other methods.

Aeration
With the highest transfer rate per ft. of depth (2.8%) our technology
transfers more of what the EPA denes as a "micro-bubble" than any
other method available today. In fact in a clean water test we reach
maximum saturation of the entire containment after re-circulating
only half of the containment through our Taeration nozzle regardless
of its shape or depth. More O2 results in higher densities and faster
growth rates.
Mixing and Circulation
Drawing water from one end and injecting it back into the opposite
end ensures proper circulation and disbursement of the O2 through-
out. This creates great water ow or tank velocity, but also keeps the
oc in suspension eliminating problematic ammonia pocket.
De-Gassing
Our Taeration technology injects air and water at a ratio averaging
of 3 to 1. For each gallon of water that ows through the nozzle, 3
gallons of air are entrained and injected out the exit cylinder. Oftenoverlooked and rarely tested for this high ratio de-gasses CO2 and
other noxious gasses from the water.
Commercial Experience in Intensive Shrimp Broodstock rearing
system.
In the rst trial in a shrimp Broodstock rearing commercial facility,
Litopennaeus vannamei were stocked at an initial density of 0.5 kg/
m into concrete ponds with volumes measuring 240m. Trial one ran
from May 27, 2008 through July 17, 2008. Trial two ran from June
29, 2008 through November 25, 2008. Trial three ran from August
12, 2008 through December 21, 2008. Final densities reached 1.5-
1.8kg/m upon harvesting.
The animals in all trials were fed based on the average weight of theshrimp. For example, if the average weight was 5.0g, they were fed
(5g)(5%)(population). When the average weight was 20g, they were
fed 3% of that weight until at 25g or more, the percentage bottomed
out at 2.0%. Parameters measured on a weekly basis included
average weight of shrimp (g) in order to calculate average growth per
week, total ammonia (TAN), nitrite, nitrate, and alkalinity using Hach
reagents and the Hach DR/890 colorimeter. Parameters measured
on a daily basis included dissolved oxygen (mg/L) and temperature
(C) using the YSI 550A. Density (kg/m) was calculated on a weekly
basis.
TAERATION technology provides a higher than acceptable ow
through the entire pond. As noted above, dissolved oxygen levels
were never reported below 6.2 mg/L. pH ranges were 7.7-8.3 in all
three trials. Total ammonia (TAN) did not exceed 0.7 mg/L in any trial;
nitrite did not exceed 2.42 mg/L in any trial. The range for alkalinity
in all trials was 124-200 mg/L.
Trials 1, 2 and 3 respectively showed survival rates of 87%, 88% and
93% and nal harvest size of 25g, 42g and 35g. The feed conversion
ratio for all trials averaged 1.81.
Commercial experience in shrimp super intensive closed RAS.An 87-day study was conducted in two newly constructed EPDM-
lined raceways (each RW approximately 34 m long x 3 m wide). RWs
were each lled with a mixture of seawater (50 m3) and biooc-rich
water (30 m3). To provide aeration, mixing, and circulation, a total of
14 non-Venturi TAERATION nozzles were positioned parallel to the
direction of ow along the bottom of each RWs wall.

In addition, one nozzle was used to power a home-made foam
fractionator to enable removal of particulate and dissolved organic
matter. Two pumps (total of 5 hp) were used to power the 15 nozzles
in each RW. Shrimp (8.5 g) were stocked at 270/m3 (213/ m2).
Shrimp were fed a 35% CP diet. Freshwater was added (0.1 m3/d) to
maintain salinity, and RWs were maintained with no water exchange.
Each RW was equipped with a DO monitoring system (YSI 5200).
Water temperature, salinity, DO, and pH were monitored twice/d.
TAN, NO2-N, NO3-N, alkalinity, SS, turbidity, TSS, VSS, and cBOD5
were monitored at least once a week. TAN and NO2-N remained very
low (>0.5 mg/L) throughout the study. Mean temperature, salinity,
pH, and DO were: 30 C, 30.8 psu, 7.0, and 5.8 mg/L, respectively.
Atmospheric air was used to maintain high DO throughout the study,
concluding with 90% survival and an average yield of 6.4 kg/m3.
Shrimp growth averaged 1.4 g/wk with mean nal weights of 26.2 g.
Commercial experience in tilapia super intensive closed RAS.
We are producing market size tilapia at commercial level in intensive
closed biooc RAS replacing all the traditional air devices (blowers &
diffusing hoses) with the TAERATION technology.
We are stocking 6,500 tilapia 30 gr juveniles in 140 m3 circular
tanks (12.4 m ) and keep them during the grow out cycle until
harvest size at 700 gr. This is a zero water exchange biooc systemthat only recovers evaporation loses.
The TAERATION commercial system is producing 30 kg/m3 of
700 gr tilapia (4.5 MT/Tk) in a 6 month cycle at an FCR of 1.2 and
average nal survival of 93%
Comments.
Over the last few years, we have been proving that the use of
TAERATION Technology in the design, operation and managing of
commercial super intensive closed RAS for shrimp and tilapia is a
very efcient alternative to traditional aquaculture aeration systems
and ts perfectly in the super intensive management innovative
concept.
