How much of this solution should be added in a 1000 litre drum to control ammonia? and to maintain the proper amount of floc in the newly added water??
You deserve a big like thank you but i have three questions 1- carbon source isn’t it something like wheat or saturated? 2- can i use yeast as probiotics source 3- how much amount of this mix can be added to 50 square meters bond.
1. Carbon Sources are Sugar, Jaggery, Rice Bran, Molases 2. Yeast is not a Probiotics that is required for the Biofloc Use, you should be using Probiotics for Biofloc 3. Need to know whats the water holding in 50sqrmtr???
Thank you for sharing such useful information. In 10,000 litres of tank, how much litres of FCO should be added? Secondly, how do you prepare probiotics? Kindly upload a video .
There are many things which I cannot disclosure now as its not fully tested. I am just using for my purpose to test it. Application of FCO, depends upon the culture, tank size, stocking density, feeding and size of the fish
U said that areation should not be stopped in fco drum , but can i stop aereation to shrimp tanks for at least 1 hour after fco is added to shrimp tank, or do the bacteria need oxygen 24/7 in both fco drum n shrimp tanks
This is a very helpful video, thanks a lot. My question is that for how long do we need to continue aeration after the first 72hours? Am Kenny from Nigeria.
FCO is your interpretation of CN ratio or there is no relation and are separate factors in cultivation of BFT? Kindly elaborate Sir. I am amaze at your videos . Well done! By now how many harvests? So you are otw to be India millionaire farmer. Good and happy for you. TQ .you are a good man, this world need more like you instead of corruptions n egoists who deserve hell finally.
FCO is the simplest method of controlling Ammonia and converting undigested feed into protein cells. You no need to worry about CN Ratio when you are following the FCO Method. The CN ratio can be calculated at the end of the culture if you want to know about of it. It been more than 1 year I have been doing research on BFT and trying to help people on this way of doing culture.
That depending upon which probiotics you use and on an average you can use 100-200ml per day for two weeks. But carps fishes in 1000 ltr is not good idea, if you are doing for learning its fine
Nice & useful video. Thanks. Could you pls, in your next video, show us the optimum quantity of FCO required as per Tank size, i.e 5000 lts, 10000 lts, 15000 lts & so on.
whether using of Raw salt is compulsory while preparing FCO , or it may not be added also ,Because I was told that while farming Pabda in biofloc , the TDS should be below 450 and somebody advised to use Raw salt not more than 250 grams per 1000 litter of water .. So I am curious for preparing FCO for Pabda fish .. whether to use raw salt or not ... ...
I have no experience doing Pabda fish culture in Biofloc, whoever told you please consider his experience as different fishes have different behaviors. I may tell you once I do it by myself. But low salinity is beneficiary is as it so many benefits to the animals.

Very nice can probitic be added with molasses
Yes, you are right
Do you use the same mixture when refilling fco how often do you refill?monthly weekly or every other day

What is the ratio of FCO to the water on tank.for example 8mdiameter 1meter height
Calculation methods are different
How Manny liters should this solution provide in the fish or shrimp tank?
Its depending upon size of water capacity
are you using faucet water, water from ground pump, river water. because faucet water may have chlorine.
I am using ground water for my culture
Sir how much aeration need for 1ton 30 count shrimp production.how many HP nedd for each ton production.please and thanks
60-80hp Aeration

You need to run 24hrs as these are aerobic bacteria and they need continuous aerations
@@RoadtoBioFloc Thanks for your prompt response.
If we stops carbon addition means floc will decrease suddenly?

If the aeration system stop countinusly after some times does it affect the bacteria in FCO process?
Yes they wont survive
there is no expiry of FCO . why we should use within 45 days ?
Better to use it as earliest as possible
