Paper Title:
Biofloc Consumption, Growth Performance And Water Quality Of African Catfish (Clarias gariepenus) And Tilapia (Oreochromis Niloticus) Cultured In Biofloc System Without Water Exchange
This current work aimed to analyze consumption of biofloc by fish samples (catfish and tilapia) and investigate the effects on fish growth performance under biofloc culture system. The experiment was carried out separately, according to fish species, including catfish with biofloc (BC), catfish without biofloc (NC), tilapia with biofloc (BT) and tilapia without biofloc (NT). All experiments were made at triplicates. The results showed comparable level TSS and TAN in BC to be higher than in NC. Similarly was found higher in BT than in NT. Biofloc treatment resulted in lower nitrite level in catfish groups, but contrast result occurred in tilapia groups. Furthermore, biofloc fish groups had higher biofloc volume than non biofloc groups. In all groups, all planktonic matters found in fish gut corresponded to those in biofloc. For bacteria, the similarity between bacteria composition in fish gut and culture medium varied greatly as follows: 66.67% (BC), 45.46% (NC), 21.43% (BT) and 30.00% (NT). These findings brought noticeable evidence, that catfish and tilapia consumed biofloc during experiment. In terms of SGR, no significant difference was found between biofloc and non biofloc groups for catfish and tilapia groups. Biofloc treatment significantly increased survival rate and biomass gain in catfish, but they did not differ significantly in tilapia
