Books like Applied Aquaculture Biofloc Technology by S. Felix

The intent of this book is to provide a detailed and specific set of guidelines for both aquapreneurs and researchers related to the application of Biofloc Technology in aquaculture. The goal of the book is to remove the false claims and untrue stories on biofloc from scientific point of view as it is applied to aquaculture and to provide a guide for its accurate application. This book discusses key issues related to both adoption and practices for aquaculture businesses, how to monitor and assess quality and quantity of biofloc, and how to manage the microbial composition and sludge reduction risk in the fish and shrimp culture. The book works through the specific application of disease and feed management tools for aquaculture from the perspective of this technology. Particular attention is paid on comparing the prototypes of floc development and evaluation on its efficacy in aquaculture. A section on application of biofloc technology in research should assist aquaculture researchers to avoid common mistakes. Additional chapter on design and operation of exsitu bioreactor models provide a sense of more applicability in replacing fish meal.
