The emergence of Vibrio diseases, including acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) caused by Vibrio spp., had resulted in heavy losses in global shrimp production. Biofloc technology is a closed aquaculture system developed as one of the sustainable solutions to increase system resilience in the shrimp industry.

Currently, count size is applied globally as a grading standard to sell head-less shell-on farmed shrimp. Although count size does not indicate directly the quality of shrimp, the price of shrimp generally increases proportionally with the increase of shrimp size. The importance of the size of white leg shrimp has been previously reported, where a strong correlation was found between size and metabolome data.

Introduction: "Count size" is a term used to represent the number of shrimps in one pound or kilogram that applies globally in the shrimp industry. Based on shrimp body weight, count sizes range over the smallest (> 70) up to the largest size (U15) of shrimp. Large shrimps are considered highly palatable; therefore, they are priced higher than the small shrimps.

Introduction: The production of the whiteleg shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei now accounts for approximately 75% of the total shrimp production in Indonesia. The techniques used to produce whiteleg shrimp in Indonesia are still dominated by conventional rearing strategies using open-pond systems, which often contribute to unpredictable culture performance and weak sustainability. Alternative production strategies of closed aquaculture systems, including the recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) and hybrid zero water discharge-recirculating aquaculture system (hybrid system), have been developed and implemented for higher productivity, stability and sustainability of whiteleg shrimp grow-out production in Indonesia.

After 53 years of quiescence, Mount Agung awoke in August 2017, with intense seismicity, measurable ground deformation, and thermal anomalies in the summit crater. Although the seismic unrest peaked in late September and early October, the volcano did not start erupting until 21 November. The most intense explosive eruptions with accompanying rapid lava effusion occurred between 25 and 29 November.

Microalgae-derived oils have potential as a biofuel feedstock. To produce microalgal oils at a large scale, large amounts of nutrients and energy are needed to grow the algae. In this study, we evaluated three types of agricultural fertilizer (AF)-based culture media (AF1, AF2, and AF3) based on a previously published enriched seawater (ES) medium to produce biomass and oils from Thalassiosira sp.
