Tips to clean your fish / shrimp pond to reduce Ammonia

MANAGING AMMONIA IN FISH POND

• IN PROPERLY MANAGED FISH PONDS, AMMONIA SELDOM ACCUMULATES TO LETHAL

CONCENTRATIONS.

• HOWEVER, AMMONIA CAN HAVE SO-CALLED “SUB LETHAL” EFFECTS SUCH AS REDUCED

GROWTH, POOR FEED CONVERSION, AND REDUCED DISEASE RESISTANCE AT

CONCENTRATIONS THAT ARE LOWER THAN LETHAL CONCENTRATIONS.

SOURCES OF AMMONIA

• DECAYING PLANT MATTER,

• DEAD ALGAE OR

• DEAD FISH OR

• OTHER ANIMALS IN THE

POND

SYMPTOMS OF AMMONIA STRESS ON FISH

• FISH SITING AT THE BOTTOM.

• LOSS OF APPETITE.

• FINS CLAMPED CLOSE TO THE BODY.

• EXCESS MUCUS COAT.

HOW TO MANAGE FISH POND FOR AMMONIA

• REDUCE FEEDING RATE.

• INCREASE AERATION.

• ADD LIME.

• FLUSH THE POND WITH WELL WATER.

• ADD BACTERIAL AMENDMENTS.

IMPORTANCE OF AERATION TO REDUCE AMMONIA

• AERATION IS A UNIT PROCESS IN WHICH AIR AND WATER ARE BROUGHT INTO INTIMATE

CONTACT.

• TURBULENCE INCREASES THE AERATION OF FLOWING STREAMS

• THE CONTACT TIME AND THE RATIO OF AIR TO WATER MUST BE SUFFICIENT FOR EFFECTIVE

REMOVAL OF THE UNWANTED GAS LIKE AMMONIA.

• HENCE A GOOD AERATION SYSTEM IS REQUIRED TO REDUCE THE AMMONIA FROM THE WATER

BODY.

INTRODUCTION TO AIROXI TUBE

• AIROXI IS ONE OF THE LATEST TECHNOLOGIES FOR AQUACULTURE AERATION AND IS DESIGNED

SPECIALLY FOR COMMERCIAL AQUACULTURE.

• AIROXI TUBE HAS HIGH EFFICIENCY IN BOTH SALT WATER AND FRESH WATER.

• IT IS MADE WITH A BLEND OF MATERIALS THAT PROVIDE DURABILITY AND SMOOTH AIR FLOW.

BENEFITS OF OUR AERATION SOLUTION

• INCREASED DISSOLVED OXYGEN IN THE POND.

• REDUCED ELECTRICITY COST.

• UNIFORM DISSOLVED OXYGEN THROUGHOUT DAY

AND NIGHT.

• AIROXI DO NOT DISTURB THE AQUATIC LIFE.

• LOW MAINTENANCE.

• IMPROVED FOOD CONVERSION RATION

• HIGHER YIELD.
