Fish Driven Bioturbation as a Viable Aquaculture Technology for Increasing Production and Improving Ecological Sustainability of Giant Tiger Shrimp Penaeus Monodon (FABRlClUS)

Abstract

A general introduction to the problems faced in the shrimp culture due to waste formation and its consequent environmental hazards and production problems of Giant tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon is highlighted by the author in this thesis. The objective of the present work was to assess the potential of brackish water finfish to improve bottom soil conditions and thereby increase the growth and production of Penaeus monodon. The salient findings of the present study are summarized in chapter 7. This is followed by the references cited in the thesis and list ofpublications originated from the present study.
