Multi-species fish pond and nutrient balance
The efficiency of pond aquaculture largely depends on species combination, stocking density and ratio, and the quantity and quality of nutrient inputs. In semi-intensive polyculture, fish production is mainly based on natural productivity, which greatly depends on nutrients availability in the water...

The efficiency of pond aquaculture largely depends on species combination, stocking density and ratio, and the quantity and quality of nutrient inputs. In semi-intensive polyculture, fish production is mainly based on natural productivity, which greatly depends on nutrients availability in the water column.

Density of benthivorous fish is very important. Optimum density of benthivorous and planktivorous fish in polyculture can improve synergistic effects, which increase nutrient retention efficiency in fish and decrease nutrient loss. Besides decreasing nutrient loss this type of polyculture maximizes resource utilization.
