In this video Dr Jose Domingos explains the BIOFLOC SUPER INTENSIVE SYSTEM to farm shrimp and tilapia. Here, in Part 2 the focus is on preparation of the tanks, aeration requirements, and development of bioflocs for the first time. If you want to go straight to the point and get some recipes for making biofloc from scratch, skip to the end of the video, but the most important is the understanding the why we do so.
Many thanks to Prof Wilson Wasielesky Jr, my first academic mentor, for some of the pictures and data shown here.
Many thanks also to my friend Mr James Chow from AquaPro Solutions (www.aquapro-solutions.com/) for providing some photos of their aQua+ Nanobubble Generator in use. - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

Out of the hundreds of videos I’ve watched about this topic you are the most informational one great job keep up the good work.
Thank you
Wow thank you so much finally found a well explained video!
Finally #13 released 👍 Thanks!
lover your videos. Please make more I'll share it with my friends and family
Very interesting idea,Please continue sir..I will soon to have this culture in my small farm.
Thanks for sharing this video
please do a step by step video on making it. Its very interesting, i want to start this to help people out
you are awesome man
Thank you so much for your informative video. Im in the process of starting an indoor vaname shrimp farm. May i know the formula to calculate the 32.5 gr Molase from the 50 gr fish feed. And where to get your books in Singapore?
I am Penjyos from india. thanks a lot for very informative videos on shrimp farming to both of you.
I would like to see more biofloc videos like
1.what all water parameters need to be checked?
2 Day to day activites in biofloc tank for shrimp farming?
3.Nano bubbler price in Austrialian dollors?
4.carbon source addition frequency?
5.CN ration for shrimp?
8.FCO for shrimp?
7.please show day to day activiities in biofloc shrimp farming from start to end?
Nice video 🎉. I have doubt that floc drpps suddenly? What's the reason for it?
And carbon should added daily to thr pond to keep fv 35ml?
Whats is diff between raw molasses and fermented carbon source?
Awasome, thanks, can You helpe, i what to know if is posible to use Biofloc in red claw (Australian lobster)
Thank you very much for that helping video! Could you please tell, if it is possible to run a biofloc system in darkness / covered tank?
yes for the biofloc, but need to respect shrimp circadian rhythms, they need light and dark cycle just like we do
Is there a good course on Biofloc or maybe a consulting form to help us get started ?
how many days shall i Culture the water?? before i put fish?
Wow i want to start this bioflocs technology. How to make water clear without changing pondwater? New friend here from the Philippines
Hi, I would like to thank you for this informative series, and to appreciate the effort you made. At 9:00 , on basic recipes title, is written "(Repeat 4 to 6 times)". Did you mean 4-6 times A day, how long apart
not per day, can add every 2 days, looking at water quality and flocs
Hi, I would like to thank you for your videos. They are very useful. Just out of curiosity, doesn't Molasses have 24% carbon instead of 50%?
Hi, the content will depend on the brand and how much water in the molasses, so not all are the same
@@hashtagfish8542 Hi, could you please let me know what is the brand's name having 50% carbon
@@fallenmalaikat5868 it is molasses from Brazil, I don't know the brand. Any molasses will do, is trial amd error. If ammonia still high you add more
Hi, you have sharing very good information about the topic. Thumbs up. How about the salinity? Can you elaborate about that? Thanks in advance.🤗
Hi Nigel what would you likevto know about the Salinity?
@@hashtagfish8542 Hi, thanks for reply. I have asked some vanamei shrimp farmers about it. Some saying salinity 5ppt?10ppt and 20ppt? which is the best? What type of sea salt used or there is only 1 type? Lastly, What is the volume for 1000 L.?Thanks.
@@nigel7971 even 1ppt okay but for intensive culture 10 ppt minimum. What is important is the ionic balance to be same as seawater, if use common salt only (NaCll shrimp will not survive
@@hashtagfish8542 Thanks.
شكرا للك ولقناتك ممكن سؤال بعد اذنك

Hi There,
i am setting up 1 ha shrimp farm with harvest target of 30 ton per 90-100 days. i am interested to learn further with you. do you have any contact i can check? for the background, i am new in this industry, but really keen to learn. thanks
No need to prepare with salt the water? This water the shrimp will stay for 90 days? or need nursery?
What's your opinion on clearwater ras systems for the majorities of the grow out phase? I've been thinking of leaving pls in their nursery tank that uses biofloc and after 3weeks moving them to a clearwater system to help stimulate their natural environment
It is not economically viable clear water RAS for shrimp, that is, it will not pay the bills
Also juvenile shrimp don't live in clear waters, but in mangroves and sea side lagoons.
Thanks for sharing this. May I know what do you mean repeat 4 to 6 times? As the example we need 32.5 gram molasses for 50 gr shrimp feed per day. Do you mean we have to give 32.6 gram molasses per day 4 to 6 times? So if I give 4 times, the total molasses: 32.6 x 4 = 130.4 gram a day?
By repeat I mean you apply and keep monitoring water quality daily and re apply according to changes, not blindly, until flocs are established
@@joseantoniosantosdom I see 😊. Thanks a lot
Hi Jose... questions again:
1) means mature biofloc water can be used again for next cultivation period? if yes, how many percent can be used?
2) Is that good a combination biofloc with nanobubble? my nanobubble equipment cannot make a mechanical move in vertical or horizontal to avoid dead zones.
Hi friend. I would use up to 50% but there is no rule and you could use more as long as there is no pathogens. the Nanobubbler is not a 100% replacement for the blower or paddle wheel aerator. because like you said the bubbles don't float and don't create currents mixing the water. I did an experiment in the lab measuring bubbles with an expensive equipment last year and after 3 weeks 65% of the Nanobubbles were still in the water.
@@hashtagfish8542 Interesting! Now I am more curious about my experiment :)
Hi.. Thanks so much for the information, if possible i have two questions fot you:
1. In the case of biofloc prawn farming site being close to large commercial ponds, risk of pathogens would be high. What would be a way counteract this? Maybe sand filter + chlorine treatment?
2. Would it be better to culture biofloc in a separate tank as a starter to add to other tanks during initial water preparation?
Thank you
1. Always assume the risk of pathogen to be high, independent of which system you use. The pathogen coming from the PLs have as high or higher risk as the intake water, in this case disinfection will not help. So getting PLs from hatchery that have high biosecure standard and use SPF broodstock and clean PL is as important. Yes, you can use rapid sand filter, gravity sand filter, drum filter or cartridge filter - it depends on the size of your project and how much water is used. Chlorine will kill everything, pathogens but also good bacteria. Pathogens can also come from the air as bird droppings.
2. Starting in a separate tank may help you get a few weeks ahead, but it might be just an unnecessary investment of having this extra tank as you need heavy mixing and aeration. Once you have your biofloc establish in your first tank/pond you can reuse 10-30% to seed other tank/pond.
Original biofloc culture has several drawbacks (too much floc is generated to deal with ammonia, this excess floc need to be constantly removed).
If you want to start or upgrade a project right, with high productivity and biosecurity in mind, please drop us an email at j.a.domingos35@gmail.com for consultation.
Thanks for the video, it's quite helpful. I am from India, planning to set up a small biofloc unit. I have few questions, can you help me with the answers?
1.Should we keep adding the feed and carbon source daily around 5 to 6 times, until the water is matured?
2. I heard Vannamie has cannibalistic nature. At that high intensity level, is it a problem?
3. Does the bacteria in biofloc compete with pathogens like vibrio? What type of bacteria grow in this 'soup' why the vibrio won't grow in this environment?
1. no need to add so frequently, just enough to get flocks going, about 5 times during water preparation.
2. as long as there is enough food Vannamei will not cannibalize each other.
3. any marine or brackish system will have Vibrio, just need to keep good culture environment and the other competing bacteria won't let Vibrio dominate
3. Vibrio will ALWAYS be present in any system, but by keeping a good oxygenated environment, low ammonia, not overfeeding, Vibrio will not be a problem because there will be many other competing bacteria
@@hashtagfish8542 Thank you so much for answering so quick!! waiting for video #14 👍
Hi sir I am from Bangladesh,for the first time in Bangladesh I have successfully cultured vannamei in Biofloc technology.where stocking density were 450,400,350,300 per cubic meter.Your videos are true inspiring.Is there anyway to contact you directly??
Hi Mr Hoque. sorry for the late reply we have been flooded with other work commitments but are now back to the channel. Our contact is j.a.domingos35@gmail.com
Good day sir im from the philippine do you have ebook for telapia and shrimp biofloc culture? If there is i want to avail and hm?tnx
Hi sir, you have mentioned to do the recipe for 4 to 6 times. Should we do 4 to 6 times per day ? Or in 4 to 6 days of same process ?
no, not per day. Use that recipe (quantity) until you get bioflocs over about 1 month (so 1x to 2x per week)
@@hashtagfish8542 Thank you 👍
Hello sir , i hv a question for shimp culture
How to keep TAN low in biofloc system ?
Molasses!
Thanks for sharing. I'm trying to raise shrimp in biofloc. I get abundance excessive foam in the pond from several days ago until now. Is it normal or dangerous? The water is quite clear. The water quality: ammonia very low (zero) but nitrite quite high.
Foam is normal in the beginning and sometimes mid cycle too. Water is clear means you then don't have floc, should be brown
@@joseantoniosantosdom Thanks for your answer. I am reducing the feeding rate now in order to reduce the foam. one thing I'm still struggle is stabilize nitrite. sometimes it up, sometimes it down. I thought the nitrification bacteria has been established because the ammonia always low.
@Samuel Limawan if shrimp is demanding feed don't reduce because of foam, foam is not a problem. High nitrite level means you have anoxic zone somewhere and the sludge is rotting
@@joseantoniosantosdom I have more question, sir. Let say the sugar required is 100 gr to be added for shrimp food in one day (1000 gr, for example). The food will be given 4 times in a day (@ 250 gr). Should I add 25 gr of sugar for each feeding of shrimp or can I add the 100 gr of sugar at once (before 1st feeding batch or after 4th feeding batch)? Thanks
@@SamuelLimawan i don't understand, the sugar is not for the shrimp. It is to reduce ammonia.
Do you know of a company in the US that sells PLs on a small scale, I would like to try this on a small scale.
Hi sorry, I don't but suppose with a bit of research you will find it, may have to pay a premium for small amounts though, good luck !
hello sir,
where are you from? I want to learn more about it, so how can i contact you?? does you give training about it?
Hi Pradip, you can contact us on j.a.domingos35@gmail.com.
Can you start with say 200 pi on a small fish tank and move them out as they grow to a bigger pool/Pond?
PL’s*
Of course but 200 PL is not much, you probably will not have many to transfer later. It's also difficult to buy so little, unless you have a farmer friend who will give them away.
Sir,may I know,in which country is your fish farm located?
Hi, I don't have a fish farm...
I would love if you could talk more about good Water parameter quality and Shrimp molting.
HI Alex. Shrimp #03 and #04 videos are about molting. I suggest you track your shrimp molting by following the uropod method looking at the tip of the tail under the microscope explained in video #03 and see how your shrimp molt according to the water quality changes in your system.
how to keep alkalinity high? dosing minerals?
Sodium bicarbonate for instance
@@hashtagfish8542 How about hydrated lime?
@@shrimpfarming5257 yes also, as explained I the video
@@joseantoniosantosdom thank you. big fan of your work sir. I hope you keep producing quality content. Cheers.
mixotrophic (Samocha) or heterotrophic dominant biofloc system?
I don't understand what your question is, please elaborate
@@hashtagfish8542 I understand that biofloc bacteria mainly consists of heterotrophs and autotrophs. T. Samocha advocates a balance of 1/3 heterotrophs and 2/3 autotrophs, which is a mixotrophic system that requires a different strategy to manage water quality than say heterotrophs dominant systems.
It depends on the amount of light that hits the water, this will determine how many autot (algae) there are. The name of the system does not matter.
In any case Biofloc is difficult to maintain in commercial conditions, this is why I now advocate for a Bio-RAS system
@@hashtagfish8542 Could you elaborate on the latter?
Hi good day, I like to know more about this, and I would like to know where can I get life training, because I’m very interested in this but I have very small information and around us no one doing it
Please kindly give me some information that will be very helpful
Regard, irfan
There are books and scientific articles. Other than that you can consult with us in case you have a commercial project
