Abstract
In a nutshell, the present study indicates that the
excess accumulation of organic matter will lead to
pollution which in turn may lead to the black/brown
discolouration in shrimps. But this specific problem
can be overcome by the application of oxidising
agents that reduces the organic load to safer levels.
Better feed management practices are the simplest
way to prevent pollution in shrimp ponds.
