La influencia de la frecuencia de adición de Navicula sp. en un sistema de biofloc sobre el crecimiento de postlarvas de Penaeus vannamei y la comunidad planctónica
Resumen
Objetivo del estudio: El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el efecto de diferentes frecuencias de adición de la microalga Navicula sp. en un sistema de bioflóculos sobre el rendimiento de crecimiento de las postlarvas de Penaeus vannamei y la comunidad planctónica.
Área de estudio: Laboratorio de Maricultura Sostenible, Departamento de Pesca y Acuicultura, Universidad Federal Rural de Pernambuco, Brasil.
Material y Métodos: Se evaluaron cuatro tratamientos por triplicado durante 35 días: un tratamiento control (BFT - sin Navicula sp.) y tres tratamientos con adiciones de Navicula sp. cada 5, 10 y 15 días (BFT 5D, BFT 10D y BFT 15D). La microalga se agregó a una densidad de 10 × 10⁴ células mL⁻¹, y las postlarvas de Penaeus vannamei (PL10, ~5 mg) se cultivaron a una densidad de 3.000 PL m⁻³.
Resultados principales: La frecuencia de adición de Navicula sp. no afectó significativamente a los parámetros de calidad del agua, excepto los sólidos sedimentables. El desempeño del camarón mejoró en los tratamientos con adiciones más frecuentes (BFT 5D y BFT 10D), los cuales presentaron mayores pesos finales medios (0,44 ± 0,02 g y 0,51 ± 0,01 g) y rendimientos (1,22 ± 0,05 kg m⁻³ y 1,41 ± 0,02 kg m⁻³) en comparación con el control. Aunque los tratamientos no afectaron significativamente la composición de la comunidad planctónica, se observaron variaciones temporales, con una abundancia relativa de Cianofitas de hasta el 95,2%. Dentro de los grupos de Cianofitas y protozooplancton, Aphanocapsa sp. y Paramecium sp. fueron los taxones predominantes, respectivamente.
Conclusiones: La adición de Navicula sp. cada 5 o 10 días mejora el rendimiento de crecimiento de Penaeus vannamei en sistemas de bioflóculos. Con el tiempo, la composición planctónica cambió, presentando un dominio de Cyanophyta. Considerando los costos asociados a la producción de microalgas, se recomienda la adición de Navicula sp. cada 10 días en criaderos de camarón en sistemas de bioflóculos.
