Note(s): In recent years , researchers in the U.S. have been working to develop indoor recirculating aquaculture systems for production of marine shrimp. These systems are attractive to U.S. shrimp producers, because they allow shrimp to be cultured year round in relatively small areas. Indoor recirculation technology reduces water requirements and discharge from the culture system, minimizing environmental impacts, and offering a high degree of biosecurity. The probability of introducing viral pathogens into indoor recirculation systems supplied with well water and stocked with specific pathogen free post larvae is minimal.
