Summary: Recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) manage waste and nutrient recycling to make intensive fish production environmentally sustainable. This study investigated the dynamics of prokaryotic communities in relation to water parameters, finding that shifts in the community were modeled by factors such as salinity and pH. The research provides new knowledge essential for understanding microbial community balance in aquaculture and serves as a valuable tool for overall aquaculture system management.

Summary: Aquaculture has the potential to feed the growing global population, but it also leads to environmental pollution. Rice-cray-fish co-culture models (RCFP) in China are eco-friendly, but little is known about their microbiome pattern. This study reveals that RCFP has advantages in nitrogen assimilation and sulfur pollutants removal, while non-RCFP produces hazardous pollutants. RCFP plays a crucial role in balancing aquaculture productivity and environmental protection.

Summary: Intensive aquaculture plays a crucial role in meeting the increasing demand for aquatic products. Recirculating ponds combined with biological processes, such as biological filtration and probiotics, can efficiently purify water. The closed recirculating aquaculture pond enhanced with bacteria-microalgae association significantly improves fish production and water quality by reducing nitrogen compounds and enhancing denitrification processes.

Summary: Disinfection is crucial in aquaculture, but there is a lack of documentation on practices. Survey of Atlantic salmon recirculation aquaculture facilities in Norway and North America revealed differences in disinfectant selection and standards. Information will be valuable for developing robust and comprehensive disinfection strategies in the future.

Summary: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is toxic to aquaculture species, causing significant economic losses. Current sensors struggle to detect low concentrations of H2S. This paper introduces a real-time monitoring system for sub mu g/L levels of H2S in RAS, providing reliable data on multiple water quality parameters. The system has implications for risk reduction and mitigation of H2S-induced hazards.

Summary: The study investigated the gut microbiota of five fish species farmed in the same aquaculture site in Greece, revealing distinct and species-specific microbiota profiles. This suggests that adult farmed fish in the Mediterranean Sea have microbiota profiles that are shaped independently of their similar environmental conditions.

Summary: The study found that continuous ozonation in a brackish water recirculating aquaculture system had minimal physiological perturbations on Atlantic salmon post-smolts, with no significant difference in survival rates and average weight compared to the control group. Histological evaluations showed better gill health status in the ozone-treated group, while mucosal transcriptomics revealed distinct response profiles between gills and skin.

Summary: The aim of this study was to enrich high-performance microbial communities for the removal of ammonium and nitrite from aquaculture water. Ammonium oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria (NOB) were enriched from different environmental water samples and adapted to different temperatures. The microbial communities containing Nitrosomonas oligotropha and Nitrobacter winogradskyi showed the highest removal activity at all temperatures and do not contain any pathogenic bacteria. Using the enriched microbial communities, a significant improvement in the removal of ammonium and nitrite was achieved compared to commonly used communities in biofilters.

Summary: Fish farming in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) is a sustainable and efficient practice. This study analyzed the influence of different stocking densities on the water microbiome composition and identified bacterial pathogens associated with common fish farming practices. The results showed that microbiomes differ across systems and sampling points, and fish biomass and water physicochemical properties affect the microbiome.

Summary: In order to solve the nitrate accumulation in recirculating aquaculture system (RAS), this study aimed to provide organic carbon source, denitrifying bacteria, and microenvironment for denitrification. Denitrifying capsules were prepared and their morphology, microbial community, and nitrogen removal efficiency were investigated. The denitrifying capsules had a porous structure and showed good adaptability to environmental conditions. They exhibited high nitrate removal rates even at low solid-to-liquid ratios or low temperatures. The denitrification process of the capsules followed a zero-order reaction and the denitrification rate was calculated to be 109.0 mg N/L-capsule dot h. The capsules showed a high nitrate removal rate until the litchi powder was exhausted.

Summary: Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) are a potential adaptation strategy for sustainable fish production in response to climate change, offering eco-friendly, water-efficient, highly productive features with minimal environmental impact. While energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions are constraints, RAS operate indoors and are not significantly affected by climatic factors, making them a promising direction for future fisheries development.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the dietary protein requirement of whiteleg shrimp post-larvae in a clear-water recirculating aquaculture system. The optimal protein requirement was estimated to be approximately 47% for weight gain, relative growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and survival. Shrimp fed a diet with 54% protein achieved better growth performances. Therefore, a minimum protein content of approximately 47% should be considered when designing microdiets for whiteleg shrimp post-larvae in a clear-water RAS, and protein inclusion levels up to 54% can be beneficial.

Summary: Marine ingredients are important for aquaculture and livestock feeds, but detailed information on their environmental impact is limited. A Life Cycle Inventory was compiled to allow for Life Cycle Assessments of marine ingredients, but there are still data gaps that need to be filled. An LCA demonstrated that marine ingredients have variable impacts, mostly depending on the fuel intensity of the fishery they are sourced from.

Summary: This study investigated the transfer of fatty acids from broodstock diets to eggs and the time needed for the eggs to equilibrate to the diet in Southern flounder. The findings indicate that different diet treatments significantly affect the fatty acid composition of eggs, and it takes 8-16 weeks for the eggs to adapt to changes in the adult diet. These results are important for improving broodstock diets and feeding protocols in stock-enhancement programs.

The chip enabled the parallel analysis of six genetic markers from a single sample and allowed for the highly automated detection of multiple samples. Compared with PCR and DNA sequencing, the on-chip RPA assay showed high sensitivity and specificity for detecting multiple pathogens in shrimp aquaculture.
