Effects of carbohydrate addition frequencies on biofloc culture of Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei)

In Pacific white shrimp culture, adding organic carbohydrate to the pond besides feed improves water quality and shrimp performance. While the feeding frequency has significant effects on shrimp production, how often carbohydrate should be added remains unknown. This research investigated the effects of carbohydrate addition frequency of 1, 3, and 6 times per day on Pacific white shrimp production.
