Varied microbes important to recirculating aquaculture systems
Microbes facilitate high-intensity recirculating aquaculture systems. Research indicates that the microbial community changes throughout grow-out.

Nitrifying biofilms critical for water quality in intensive shrimp RAS
Nitrifying bacteria readily form biofilms on surfaces, and colonization by these important bacteria on the interior walls of RAS production units likely provides an additional source of nitrification.
