physical condition of the shoreline.
Stocking density of eggs ranges from 20 –
30 eggs/L.
Square or rectangular shape of tanks is
prepared for ease of management.
Roofed with plastic or galvanized iron.
Lightly painted preferably yellow for easy
visual monitoring of the larvae.
Larval rearing tanks
29
The tanks used to mass produce natural
food which is the zooplankton to be fed to
the larvae.
To provide the needed nutritional
requirements of the larvae, a ratio of 1:1
(larval:rotifer) by volume is practical and
1:2 (larval:rotifer) isideal.
The tank should be 1 M or deeper in depth.

facilitate harvest of the organism.
Roofed with plastic or galvanized iron.

```
Raceways are unique compared to
other aquaculture production
systems
Employs high stocking density
The quantity of water flowing
through the system limits fish
yield
Stocks are feed dependent
```
RACEWAYS AND FLOW-THROUGH SYSTEM
31
```
A Fish tank is said to be in flow-
through state if water is made to
enter and leave the tank
simultaneously at equal flow rates.
Important hydraulic
characteristics considered in flow-
through system are mean
residence time, the dead volume
and the variance
```
Flow-through system
32
utilize technical engineering knowledge and principles in
| aquaculture and biological production systems.
aquaculture engineering
33
classification of aquaculture
Extensive
Semi-intensive
Intensive
34
production per unit volume is much higher
more technology and artificial inputs must
be used
-investment costs per unit volume farmed is
much higher
-maintenance of optimal growth conditions is
necessary to achieve the growth potential
of the species being farmed
-Additional feeding, disease control methods
and effective breeding systems also
characterize this type of farming.
-risk of disease outbreaks is higher than in
extensive farming because the organism is
continuously stressed for maximal
performance
intensive
35
Classification of aquaculture according to the life
| stage of the species produced on the farm
Eggs
Fry
Juvenile or ongrowing
Full production
36
the fish are kept in a enclosed production unit
| separated from the outside environment
Closed production units
37
the unit has permeable walls, such as nets and
so the fish are partly affected by the
surrounding environment
open production units
38
Classification of aquaculture based on the location of
| the farm
Sea
Land
Tidal zone
39
Land-based farms may be classified by the type
| of water supply for the farm (gpt)
gravity-fed
pumped
tidal through-flow farms
40
```
the water source is at a
higher altitude than the
farm and the water can flow
by gravity from the source
to the farm
```
gravity-fed
41
the source can be at an
equal or lower altitude
compared to the farm
pumped
42
water supply and exchange
| is achieved using the tide
Tidal through-flow farms
43
Farms can also be classified by how the water
| supplied to a farm is used
Flow-through farm
| Water re-use or recirculating system
44
technical components in a system (PWA)
Production units
Water transfer and treatment
Additional
equipment
(feeding, handling
and monitoring
equipment)
45
The ___ necessary and their size and
design will depend on the species being grown. In
the hatchery there will either be tanks with
upwelling water (fluidized eggs) or units where
the eggs lie on the bottom or on a substrate.
After hatching the fish are moved to some type of
production tank. Usually there are smaller tanks
for weaning and larger tanks for further on-
growing until sale. Weaning start feeding tanks
are normally under a roof, while on-growing tanks
can also be outside.
production units
46
Some type of feeding equipment is commonly
used, especially for dry feed. Use of
______ will reduce the manual work
on the farm. Feeding at intervals throughout
the day and night may also be possible; the
fish will then always have access to food,
which is important at the fry and juvenile
stages.
automatic feeders
47
Because of fish growth it is necessary to divide
the group to avoid fish densities becoming too
high. It is also common to size grade to avoid
large size variations in one production unit; for
some species this will also reduce the
possibilities for______.
cannibalism
48
In land-based fish farms, especially those
dependent upon pumps, a __________ is
essential because of the economic consequences
if pumping stops and the water supply to the
farm is interrupted.
monitoring system
49
Sea cages vary greatly in construction and size;
the major difference is ___________, and special cages for offshore farming
have been developed.
the ability to withstand
| waves
50
can include storage rooms,
mess rooms, changing rooms and toilet, and
equipment for treatment of dead fish.
base station
51
includes rooms and/or space for storage of
feed; it may also include rooms for storage of
nets and possibly storage of equipment for
washing, maintaining and impregnating them.
storage room
52
All aquaculture facilities require a supply of water. It is important to have a reliable, good-
quality water source and equipment to transfer water to and within the facility. The volume of
water needed depends on the facility size, the species and the production system.
water transport
53
PP
Polypropylene Pipe
54
ABS
acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene
55
PVDF
polyvinyl difluoride
56
Pipes may carry large amounts of water at high velocities. This generates large forces that may
cause movements of the pipe. In the worst case this can damage the pipeline. For this reason a
correct mooring system for the pipeline is of great importance.
mooring of pipes
57
is determined by
experiment, some actual values being about 0.015
for concrete-lined channels and 0.013 for
plastic, while unlined channels made of straight
and uniform earth have a value of 0.023 and those
made of rock 0.025.
manning coefficient
58
All transport of water through a pipe or a channel between
two points results in an energy loss. This is
caused by friction between the water molecules and the
surroundings.
head loss
59
is the absolute viscosity divided by
| the density of the liquid;
kinematic viscosity
60
are mechanical devices that add energy to fluids by transforming mechanical energy (normally
from electric motors) to potential and/or kinetic energy of the fluid. Increase in potential
energy is illustrated by the lifting of water to an elevated tank, while the increase in velocity
and hence the flow rate through a pipeline by pumping increases the kinetic energy of the water.
pumps
61
A major pump type is the ________ in which liquid is
| displaced from one area to another.
displacement pump
62
is based on another principle. Here a part flow
under high pressure is used to draw a main stream with much higher
water flow but lower pressure.
ejector pump
63
air is supplied inside an open pipe standing
| partly below the surface and partly filled with water.
air-;ift pumps
64
is based on another principle; among other
| uses, such pumps are employed for sludge.
screw pump
65
For aquaculture facilities there is a need to pump a large amount
of water with a relatively small lifting height. ______________ are the most suitable and most commonly used.
Centrifugal pumps
| or propeller pumps
66
consists of a pump chamber with an
| impeller, a transfer shaft and an electric motor.

67
the motor and the pump chamber are
usually built together and encapsulated in one unit
which is lowered into the water.
submerged pump
68

water treatment or water purification.
69
also called
| straining or micro screens;
mechanical filtration
70
also called sand filtration
| or just filtration;
depth filtration
71
are utilized to separate the particles and collect them at one point in the tank where a
particle outlet is placed and a small amount of water can be withdrawn to flush the particles out,
while the main water flow can be withdrawn elsewhere, normally higher up in the water mass.
dual drain system gravitational forces
72
is
used as the first step to remove the larger
particles.

and synthetic detergents, quaternary ammonium
compounds, hydrogen peroxide and various alkalis and
acids)

also reduced the number of micro-organisms because
many are attached to particles)
76
