Pond Aeration Information |
Aeration strategies can be described as supplemental or emergency. Supplemental aeration involves the nightly operation of aerators, regardless of the dissolved oxygen level, in an attempt to maintain oxygen concentrations above stressful levels. In supplemental aeration, aerators are run 5 to 7 hours per night beginning about midnight and ending about dawn.Supplemental aeration appears to increase feed efficiency and total pounds of catfish produced over emergency aeration at moderate stocking and feeding rates (4,000 fish per acre and a maximum feeding rate of 50 pounds per acre per day). As stocking and feeding rates increase, supplemental aeration may not increase production.
Emergency aeration is used when the dissolved oxygen concentration drops to critical levels, when fish may die if not assisted. Emergency aerators must be available when using supplemental aeration.
Once emergency aeration is begun, it should continue until the oxygen level is above 4 ppm and the fish no longer gasp at the surface for air. This usually occurs after an extended period of aeration, after sunrise when photosynthesis beings, or when overcast cloud conditions break up during daylight.
