Boost Yield and Productivity in ShrimP Aquaculture

With ProBio Media

NanoClear's innovative ProBio Media enhances water quality, minimizes disease risk, and optimizes growth conditions for healthier, more profitable shrimp aquaculture operations.

Water Quality Challenges in Shrimp Farming

Excess nutrients and organic waste leading to toxic conditions

Reliance on costly chemical treatments and antibiotics

Increased susceptibility to diseases like White Spot Syndrome Virus (WSSV)

Potential ecological impacts of wastewater discharge from shrimp ponds

Inefficient feed conversion and growth rates in shrimp

Difficulty maintaining optimal parameters for shrimp health and productivity

ProBio Media

The Sustainable Solution for Shrimp Aquaculture Water Management

ProBio Media (PBM) is a highly efficient, space-saving nano-ceramic biological filtration media that revolutionizes water quality management in shrimp aquaculture. This innovative technology supports the growth of beneficial bacteria, creating a thriving ecosystem within your shrimp tanks or ponds.

Unique Application Method:

PBM is conveniently suspended directly in your shrimp culture system using mesh bags, proactively maintaining optimal water quality throughout the entire growth cycle. By placing the media in direct contact with the water, beneficial microbes can efficiently break down waste, cycle nutrients, and maintain a stable, healthy environment for your shrimp.

Space-Saving Efficiency

With a recommended application rate of just 320 grams per cubic meter (approximately 3 liters per 1,000 liters), PBM takes up minimal space within your tank or pond. This means you can maximize your shrimp production volume while still enjoying the benefits of advanced biofiltration.

Breaks down excess feed, feces, and organic debris in shrimp ponds

Increases shrimp survivability and biomass for higher profitability

Converts toxic ammonia to nitrate through biofiltration

Improves water clarity and dissolved oxygen levels for optimal shrimp growth

Promotes a healthier environment for more robust shrimp

Enables higher stocking densities for increased shrimp farm productivity

Safe, chemical-free water treatment for shrimp

Advanced Nano-Ceramic Technology for Optimal Results

ProBio Media's highly porous structure provides an expansive surface area (over 2,000,000 m2/m3) for nitrifying and heterotrophic bacteria to colonize. This nano-engineered habitat promotes the development of diverse microbial communities that rapidly process waste and maintain stable water conditions.

Wastewater flows through PBM's porous structure

Pollutants diffuse into biofilm for rapid biodegradation

Aerobic and anoxic zones form to support nitrification and denitrification

Treated water exits while bacteria remain attached, eliminating washout

With ProBio Media, aerobic and anaerobic zones form within the pores to support both nitrification and denitrification. This allows for complete nitrogen removal and more efficient use of dissolved oxygen compared to conventional biofilters.

ProBio Media can be easily integrated into recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), raceways, and ponds. It's compatible with fresh, brackish, and saltwater environments.

Proven Results in Shrimp Aquaculture Operations

ProBio Media has been successfully implemented in various aquaculture sectors worldwide.

Commercial Shrimp Hatchery

Problem

Need to optimize nauplius to PL12 stage development and improve survival rates in shrimp hatchery operations.

Solution

Conducted a comparative study using ProBio Media against industry best-practice probiotics, implementing a controlled trial with five tanks for each group.

Results:

  • 12% increase in overall yield compared to control group

  • Achieved 92% survival rate

  • Improved Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) by 6.82%

  • Superior weight gain (27.27% improvement)

  • Final biomass increased by 35.31%

  • Better size consistency at 26.5 PCS/KG vs 29.5 PCS/KG standard

University Research Facility

Problem

Need to improve nitrogen cycling and prevent ammonia spikes in shrimp tanks while enhancing growth performance.

Solution

Implemented a three-group comparative study using 4m³ tanks:
Group 1: ProBio Media
Group 2: Industry-standard probiotic
Group 3: Control group (no bacteria addition)

Results:

  • Significantly faster nitrogen cycling in ProBio Media group

  • Successfully prevented ammonia spikes (other groups experienced spikes up to 5 ppm)

  • 11% weight increase compared to control groups

  • More stable water quality parameters

  • Improved overall growth performance
