In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we take a close look at how predictive modeling can help manage water quality in outdoor red tilapia systems. We break down key parameters, dissolved oxygen, total ammonia, nitrite, and alkalinity, and identify the environmental factors that affect them most. You'll hear how hybrid analytical models offer near-real-time insights that boost system control and support healthier fish. Tune in now on all major platforms!

Inspired by the 2024 article titled "Comparison of water quality prediction for red tilapia aquaculture in an outdoor recirculation system using deep learning and a hybrid model" by Jongjaraunsuk, R., Taparhudee, W., and Suwannasing, P.

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we look at how water quality affects fish behavior and what that means for production. From dissolved oxygen to turbidity, even small shifts in the environment can change how fish eat, group together, and react to stress. Discover why behavior may be your earliest and most powerful indicator of water quality. Tune in now on all major platforms!

In this episode of The Aquaculture Podcast Show, we take a closer look at how fasting affects Atlantic salmon, both biologically and operationally. We talk about fasting tolerance, signs of stress, how the immune system reacts, and the unique challenges in RAS and offshore systems. You'll also hear practical tips on how to fine-tune fasting protocols to support fish health and performance. Tune in now on all major platforms!
