Turbidity
Turbidity refers to the cloudiness or haziness of water caused by suspended particles such as clay, algae, and organic matter. In aquaculture, high turbidity can reduce light penetration, hinder photosynthesis, and affect fish gill function, increasing the risk of disease and mortality.
Using a turbidity meter or turbidity probe, fish farmers can continuously monitor the water clarity in tanks or ponds. Effective turbidity management leads to better water quality, healthier stock, and higher productivity in aquaculture systems.
