Abstract
â¶ Recirculating aquaculture conditions inhibit nitrification compared to lab studies. â¶ Increased organic carbon reduces biofilter nitrification performance. â¶ Increased organic carbon under normal conditions further reduced nitrification by 50%. â¶ Improving mechanical filtration and feed quality will minimize biofilter impacts. â¶ Future studies should be more indicative of biologically available organic carbon.
