Oxygen Booster

Oxygen is one of the critical factors for the aquatic life. Maintaining optimal levels of dissolved oxygen in culture pond is crucial. Hence, beside feed focus on measures to ensure the proper levels of dissolved oxygen should be maintained. The favorable dissolved oxygen level for fish/prawn culture is between 5 and 20 ppm.
Few reasons for decrease or sudden depletion of oxygen in aqua ponds
1. Oxygen production by aquatic plants decreases when there is not enough sunlight due to cloudy weather.
2. High stocking density in proportion to the volume of water results in the shortage of dissolved oxygen for the biomass in a pond.
3. Unwanted accumulation of a large number of fish faeces, unconsumed fish feed, inorganic or organic fertilisers, or other organic wastes.
4. Production of toxic gases when fishes die and get decomposed due to excessive or poor quality of food or chemical supplements.
5. Excessive growth of aquatic plants covering the water surface or pond margin.
6. Accumulation of polluted matters from outside the pond due to rainfall, inundation, or flood.
Through oxygenation of the water, fish and seafood farmers can protect their stock against oxygen deficiencies during peak consumption and growth periods. Adequate oxygen levels in the water at all times not only ensure growth, they also promote the health, appetite and general well-being of the fish.
