Phytoplankton and
zooplankton are natural sources of feed for the growth of
aquatic animals like fish and shrimp. The floating microscopic
plants or the phytoplankton are the micro algae which form the
basic food for all the aquatic animals. Shrimp and fish depend
on these basic foods to fulfill their nutrient requirements. The
success of aquaculture operation depends on the soil and water
management, viz., maintaining optimum bloom, Oxygen and use of
quality feed and feed additives. It is a well recognized fact
that feed contributes to almost 65-70% of total cost or
production. If proper plankton bloom is maintained, shrimps and
fish feed on it and thereby will reduce the consumption of
artificial feed which will inturn reduce the cost of production.
Moreover healthy plankton bloom is essential for various
other reasons like:
- Improving
dissolved oxygen
- Reducing
fluctuations in temperature
- Shading the
ponds and preventing the growth of harmful benthic algae.
- Providing darker environment
which is favorable and comfortable to shrimps.

and macro nutrients to maintain a healthy plankton bloom.
