For the past
five years, Aqua-Manna has expanded its research and development
into the culture of marine shrimp, L. vannamei in particular,
in
indoor recirculating
systems. Our Shrimp Pod, consists of four 18 ft diameter tanks, each
with Aqua-Manna Shrimp Hawg Multifunctional Pump and Solids
Maintenance Sump. The system is designed as a heterotrophic system, where
suspended bacterial flocs act as biofilters as well as an additional feed supply
for the shrimp. Our research has shown that each tank can produce
up
to 500 lbs of shrimp 3 times per year, that's 6,000 lbs of shrimp/year out of
each 4 tank shrimp pod*. This system is the essence of simplicity and
efficiency with only the multifunction pump, working at less than 10 amps, as
the only mechanical part of the system. These systems have the potential
to pay for themselves is less than a year of use!
