After a long period of farming, farmers certainly cannot escape the situationShrimp pond water is cloudy. This is a very normal thing, surely those who do not have experience will be quite surprised and do not know how to solve it. That’s why in this articleMicrobial product Duc Binh willReveal the solution to the problemShrimp pond water is cloudyThe most thorough treatment ensures the quality of aquacultureand helps shrimp grow healthily.

1. Some harmful effects of turbid shrimp farming water

If people are doing aquaculture and come across the situationShrimp pond water is cloudyThen be very careful and find a way to handle it immediately because it will lead to some extremely bad systems. Details are as follows:

Affects the development of beneficial organisms in aquaculture

Normally, in the water environment of shrimp ponds and lakes, natural algae will appear, which are extremely beneficial(algae, green algae)for the growth and development of aquatic animals. However, when shrimp farming water becomes turbid, it will cause damage and negatively affect this plant species. This leads to a number of not so small consequences:

  • Changes the living environment quite a lot, making it difficult for aquatic species to adapt, evenEnvironmental shock, stressor die, causing adverse effects on the crop and the farmer’s property.
  • Besides, beneficial algae is also a plant that can provide oxygen quite wellthrough photosynthesis,helps create a more perfect environment for seafood to develop and grow effectively. When algae is no longer lush(due to obscured light)Surely these favorable characteristics will no longer exist.leading to ecological imbalance in the pond.

Leading to shrimp suffocation and deterioration of water quality

The condition of water in shrimp ponds being cloudy is mainly due to the presence of many impuritiessuspended like mud, clay,residue from leftover food,or dead algae… At the same time, it is partly due to the beneficial algae no longer growing and developing well as mentioned above.

These suspended and organic matter consume large amounts of oxygen during decomposition.This will lead to a lack of dissolved oxygen in the water environment, so it can easily lead to a lack of oxygen supply, causing a lot of seafood to suffocate and die.especially at night or on cloudy days.This is a very serious problem, any farmer must pay close attention.

Reduced hunting abilityand growth rateof shrimp

In addition to the foods processed and used in farming, shrimp also eat some natural foods such as bacteria and tiny plankton. roll around… When the water environment becomes turbid, the eyesight of this species is also significantly reduced, thereby greatly affecting the ability to catch prey. Therefore, it will have a significant negative impact on the natural growth and development of this species.prolong farming time and reduce productivity.

2. Main causes of cloudy shrimp pond water

To be able to come up with a method to thoroughly solve the problem of turbid shrimp pond water, farmers should clearly understand the causes leading to this worrying situation. Details will be below:

Natural environmental causes

The first cause will be the effects of weather conditions and the natural activities of shrimp and other creatures that exist in the pond. In more detail, it will be as follows:

  • Natural impacts on the water environment for aquaculture will be rain and wind and erosion. During the rainy and stormy season, it is very easy for land along ponds and lakes to be washed away, eroded and fall into the pond.introduces large amounts of mud, clay, and silt into the water. This will lead to turbid pond water. Not to mention, each raindrop also contains a significant amount of acid along with dirt, etc., causing a significant impact on the farming environment.sudden decrease in pH.
  • At the same time, the natural activities of shrimp and some other creatures in ponds and lakes can also be the cause of cloudy water. More typical is workShrimp dig on the bottom, excess food is not completely decomposed, or excessive growth of blue-green algae and dinoflagellates quickly fades away.

Causes of cloudy shrimp pond water

The cause is humanand farming techniques

In addition, humans also directly/indirectly cause many causes that cause the water environment for shrimp farming to change quite a lot.

  • It is very possible that due to the large scale of farming, farmers cannot clean, dredge, and clean thoroughlyDuring pond preparation,and impurities, waste, etc. make the farming water environment turbid.Not improving the pond bottom thoroughly before stocking is the leading cause.
  • Not only that, it may be because people have grown shrimp with water that is too shallow, containing a lot of impurities, accompanied by underwater fans with too strong a capacity. or improper installation.From then onThe mud at the bottom of the pond was stirred up, mixed with impurities, causing negative impacts on the farming environment.
  • A method that is used quite a lot for preparing shrimp farming is lime application to help increase alkalinity in the water. However, if farmers use itPoor quality lime, not properly tempered, or applied at an inappropriate dosage reasonThis can easily lead to a situation where the water environment will become turbid very quickly.form a suspended precipitate, affecting the quality of seafood and crops.
  • In addition, it is also possible that farmers do not calculate the amount of food needed to use, leading to the appearance of excess impurities in the water environment, making the problem of turbidity quite common.This is the main cause of cloudy water caused by organic matter later.

3. Solution to treat cloudy shrimp pond water

After clearly knowing some harmful effects as well as the causes leading to the conditionShrimp pond water is cloudythen right here,Microbial product Duc Binhwill guide everyone on solutions to thoroughly handle this situation.This is a safe, sustainable biological method that does not cause chemical residues.

To treat cloudy shrimp pond water, you need to determine the cause and apply appropriate measures, including treating with chemicals such as PAC to deposit silt, using lime to adjust pH and control algae, adding probiotics to decompose organic matter, and adjusting the amount of food. 

3.1 Treat cloudy shrimp pond water with aquatic-based EM products

EM products based on aquatic products(EM1) is a microbial product produced by Duc Binh Biotechnology Company Limited, quite famous among farmers in Vietnam. Used for the purpose of treating the condition of the aquaculture water environment, bringing it to the most beneficial state for seafood, restoring the growth and development of algae beneficial to shrimp,…

  • The product has been manufactured and meets standards -05/2019/TCTS-DB, ensuring efficiency and safety for aquaculture such as fish, crabs, shrimp,…
  • In addition, probiotics also provide more than 80 types of microorganisms beneficial to different aquatic environments, mainly including Bacillus SP, Lactobacillus SP, Rhodopseudomonas SP and Saccharomyces SP.

Uses of EM microbial products based on aquatic products (Em1)

In general, Em microbial products of aquatic origin have the function of restoring the water environment for aquaculture, helping the crop to be stable, shrimp, fish,… to develop and grow better. Details will be as follows:

  • EM1 product contains a lot of microorganisms that help decomposequickly theOrganic impurities exist in the aquaculture environment, such as feces, waste, garbage, leftover food, etc.
  • Especially remove alluvium and mud suspended (thanks to flocculation and sedimentation mechanisms)caused by the impact of the natural environment (rain).
  • At the same time, it helps eliminate odors and many toxic gases harmful to aquatic products such as NitriteH2S, Ammonium, Nitrate,…Helps improve water quality immediately.
  • Restore the water environment as well as promote the development and growth of algae species that are beneficial to the aquaculture process, contributing to helping preventShrimp pond water is cloudyandRestores beautiful, stable water color (tea color, light green).
  • At the same time, it also increases the amount of microorganisms in shrimp ponds, providing an extremely abundant natural food source for shrimp.(bacteria, plankton).
  • There will be a number of beneficial microorganisms with the ability to inhibit and inhibit the growth of harmful microorganisms.(like Vibrio causing hepatopancreatic disease)or create alum, toxic algae…
  • EM1 microorganism, in addition to supporting the improvement of livestock water sources, also helps increase resistance and minimize any risk of disease for shrimp because the water environment has been cleaned and balanced.

Outstanding advantages of aquatic-based EM products in treating cloudy shrimp pond water

Besides the main use of helping to improve the condition of dirty and cloudy shrimp pond water,EM preparationspossesses many other outstanding features and uses. It can be stated as follows:

  • Reducing the feed change rate – FCR of shrimp helps save on food costs, agricultural products also absorb and grow well and as effectively as possible.
  • Not only is it possible, but it also helps farmers significantly increase shrimp farming density.

How to directly use aquatic product Em to treat cloudy shrimp pond water

In case you want to do it simply, with high efficiencyand needs urgent treatment, then use the EM1 (ORIGINAL) probiotic product directly and add it directly to the water. However, please note that you must use the right amount and at the right time, otherwise it will be harmfulto cost and efficiency.

  • First 2 months: Use 1 liter of EM1 microbial product for 1000m3water. Do it continuously once a week with the same amount.
  • From the 3rd month onwards: Everyone will have to use 2 liters of EM1 probiotic product for 1000m3water. Do this continuously 2 times/week.

Note:EM1 microbial product should be spread evenly all over the lake surfaceShrimp farming, if there is an underwater fan, turn it on continuously for 4 to 6 hours to effectively disperse microorganisms. When farming density is high or the environment is at high risk of pollutionor the water is seriously cloudythen the amount of ORIGINAL EM must be increased 1.5 – 2 times the standard dosage.

The role of EM probiotics

Instructions for using the original EM1 to raise shrimp most effectively

To save costs and increase efficiency, farmers can also use ORIGINAL EM to make EM2 or EM wine with the following formula:

  • Production formula EM2(EM activated): 1L ORIGINAL EM, 2kg Molasses (molasses), 2kg rice bran, 46L clean water. Mix everything and incubate for 5 to 7 days(when it has a slightly sour aroma) to create 50L of EM2 (ratio 1:50), used to periodically pour into the pond.
  • Formula for producing EM wine:1L ORIGINAL EM, 1L wine, 1L vinegar, 1L molasses, 7L clean water. Put everything in a jar, stir well, cover tightly, and incubate for 3 to 5 days.EM alcohol helps enhance the ability to decompose organic matter and eliminate odors.
  • Formula for producing Banana EM:1kg of ripe bananas have been peeled and pureed, 1L of EM2 microbial product, 1L of molasses. Put everything in a jar, stir well, close the lid and incubate for 2 days. Banana EM is rich in nutrients, used to mix food for shrimp, enhancing resistance.

3.2 How to treat cloudy shrimp pond water with biological product EMZEO TS

To treat cloudy shrimp pond water withpreparation EMZEO TS, you can use two ways: use it directly or activate the yeast before baking.

Method 1 (direct use): Suitable for emergency treatment, heavily polluted ponds or sudden turbid water. Mix 1 packet of EMZEO TS (250g) with 20 liters of clean water, stir well and let stand for 15 minutes, then sprinkle evenly into the pond to cover about 1000-1500 m³ of water.

Method 2 (enzyme activation): Used for ponds that require overall treatment, helping to enhance the effectiveness of probiotics. Mix 1 package of EMZEO TS (250g) + 2 liters of molasses + 48 liters of clean water, stir well and incubate for 24-48 hours to obtain 50 liters of product, then splash the pond with 2500-3000 m³ of water. Aeration should be turned on to increase efficiency. 

Note
  • Turn on the water fan or aerator to increase the effectiveness of probiotics.
  • When to use: Early morning or late afternoon.
  • Depending on pond condition, use periodically every 15-20 days.
