Effect of calcium hydroxide, carbonate and sodium bicarbonate on water quality and zootechnical performance of shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei reared in bio-flocs technology (BFT) systems (2011, background): “…under high stocking density, with strong aeration and biota (predominantly, aerobic and heterotrophic), formed by microbial flocs or bio-flocs is known as ZEAH (Zero Exchange Aerobic Heterotrophic) or, more recently, as bio-flocs technology (BFT) (Avnimelech, 2007; De Schryver et al., 2008).”
The Effect of Probiotics in a Litopenaeus vannamei Biofloc Culture System Infected with Vibrio parahaemolyticus (2014, background): “In this culture system, shrimp growth is stimulated through the absorption of microbial protein (Avnimelech 2009; Wasielesky et al. 2006) in the form of aggregates that are consumed by the shrimp as a source of nutrition (De Schryver et al. 2008; Kuhn et al. 2009; Schneider et al. 2006).”
