It ranges between 0 and 1, and is a parameter that measures how available the water is in the flesh of the fish.

[ 1] They can be contrasted with marine ecosystems, which have a larger salt content. Freshwater habitats can be classified by different factors, including temperature, light penetration, nutrients, and ...
Recirculating aquaculture system. Recirculating aquaculture systems ( RAS) are used in home aquaria and for fish production where water exchange is limited and the use of biofiltration is required to reduce ammonia toxicity. [ 1] Other types of filtration and environmental control are often also necessary to maintain clean water and provide a ...
