This study was performed to estimate the water quality of pH, salinity, dissolved oxygen, ammonium and sulfur hydroxides of sediment in shrimp aquaculture farms of Southwestern coastal of Korea from June to September, 2003. We surveyed the status of water quality and achieved the improve water and sediment quality to restraint the production of ammonium and sulfur hydroxides from sediment of shrimp aquaculture farms. The concentrations of dissolved oxygen increased from noon to the evening for 6 hour and decreased to 2.98 ppm at six o'clock in the next morning and increased repeatedly, even though DO level has a different level in sunny day and cloudy day. This results suggest that the most importance time of the control of DO in shrimp aquaculture farm is next early morning and if the DO concentration increased continuously which may be growing up the concentrations of NH₄/sup +/ and H₂S. The measured of pH and salinity were suitable to growth of shrimp. However, the level of ammonium and sulfur hydroxides produced from the sediments of shrimp aquaculture farms were 2.30 ppm and 0.075 ppm, respectively, which are exceeded to the concentration of guide line for the growth of shrimp. In the results of this study, we found it difficult to improve the water quality using of the present frame of shrimp aquaculture farms. Then, we can improved water quality of DO, NH₄/sup +/ and sediment quality of ORP, H₂S and also achieved down to the rate of shrimp fatal by changed the frame of shrimp aquaculture farms in the scale of laboratory.

Land shrimp farms can control the growth environment more stably than coastal ones, making them advantageous for high-quality, large-scale production. In order to maintain an optimal shrimp growth environment, various factors such as water circulation, maintaining appropriate water temperature, oxygen supply, and feed supply must be managed. In particular, failure to properly manage water quality can lead to the death of shrimp, making it difficult to have people stationed at the farm 24 hours a day to continuously manage them. In this paper, to solve this problem, we design an integrated monitoring system for land farms that can be operated with minimal manpower. The proposed design plan uses IoT technology to collect real-time images of land farms, pump status, water quality data, and energy usage and transmit them to the server. Through web interfaces and smartphone apps, administrators can check the status of the farm stored on the server anytime, anywhere in real time and take necessary measures. Therefore, it is possible to significantly reduce field work hours without the need for managers to reside in the farm.

To assess the noise stress of shrimp farms reasonably, we need a noise observation data underneath the waters first. But, it did not collect yet and airborne noise transfers to water noise wave using transition calculation. In case of construction of solar energy without noise stress protection wall, the threshold values (140 dB) from circumstance of underwater noise exceed within 17m at $S_2$ (15m away from source) and $S_3$ (15m away from source). Considering additional way to decrease the construction noise, all cases including minimum mode(Case A), general mode(Case B), and maximum mode(Case C) meet the guideline of underwater noise for fish farms. In case of the underwater noise could affect the fish farm, it is necessary to understand about farming species such as shrimp, monitoring of present states, and protection way under the construction.

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) which is the most serious threat to cultured shrimp around the world has given enormous economic damages to shrimp culture industry every year since it was found from the shrimp ponds in the west coast of the South Korea in 1993. WSSV has strong infectivity as well as virulence and it can be rapidly transmitted among shrimps in ponds by cannibalism of infected ones. Polyculture of shrimps with carnivorous fish has been applied in commercial shrimp farms to suppress or delay the viral outbreak because the fish may selectively eat the moribund shrimps infected by virus. To determine the selective predatory effect of a carnivorous fish, river puffer Takifugu obscurus on white shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei, polyculture trials in laboratory scale of WSSV-infected and non-infected shrimps with river puffer were conducted in concrete round tanks of $28.26\;m^2$ in surface area as followings: 1) juvenile shrimps (B. W. 0.62 g) with 5 months old puffer (B. W. 11.60 g) cultured for 8 days, and 2) sub-adult shrimps (B. W. 6.84 g) with 16 months old puffer (B. W. 85.82 g) cultured for 5 days in order to know the effects according to size difference of cultured animals. In polyculture of juvenile shrimp with 5 months old puffer, survival rates of infected and non-infected shrimps were 46.0% and 89.1% respectively and in that of sub-adult shrimp with 16 months old puffer those were4% and 48% respectively. The results showed that puffer tends to selectively prey on virus infected shrimps among infected and non-infected ones in a limited space with although there is difference in predatory rate with age and density of animals. Regardless of different densities and ages of animals as well as health condition of shrimps, however, there were low differences in daily biomass of shrimp consumed per kg body weight of puffer. This finding suggests that puffer preys on healthy shrimps when moribund shrimps were not sufficient. Therefore, farmers should consider the total biomass of puffer as well as density and stocking time when they stock puffer into shrimp ponds for polyculture.

Shrimp culture in Korea had been rapidly developed during 1990's and the production of farmed shrimp reached 3,268 mt from 2,605 ha in 2001. However the shrimp production decreased to 2,368 mt in 2004 because of the mass mortality due to outbreak of white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). WSSV which is one of the most serious threats associated with cultured shrimp around the world has given the economic damages to shrimp culture industry every year since it was found from the shrimp ponds in the west coast of the South Korea in 1993. Various polyculture technologies of shrimp with shellfish, finfish or seaweeds have been implemented to reduce economic damages by mass mortalities of shrimp. Among them, the polyculture of shrimp with carnivorous fish can suppress or delay the viral outbreak of shrimp ponds because the fish may selectively eat the moribund shrimps infected by virus. To determine the selective predatory effect of river puffer Takifugu obscures on WSSV infected shrimp, postlarvae of Litopenaeus vannamei and Fenneropenaeus chinensis. One-year old river puffers were stocked to four earthen ponds of $1,616-1,848\;m^2$ in surface area as followings: polyculture LvP, L. vannamei ($43.4/m^2$)+puffer ($0.22/m^2$); control Lv, L. vannamei ($46.9/m^2$); polyculture FcP, F. chinensis ($30.3/m^2$)+puffer ($0.25/m^2$); control Fc, F. chinensis ($24.6/m^2$). Ponds of control Fc and polyculture FcP had mass mortalities by WSSV outbreak on the $51^{st}$ and $57^{th}$ days of culture respectively. The shrimps of polyculture LvP and control Lv were harvested on the $95^{th}\;day$. Shrimp survival rates of polyculture LvP and control Lv were 32.4% and 18.2% respectively and shrimp productivity of polyculture LvP was 69.2% higher than that of control Lv. Concentration of nutrients (TAN, $NO_2-N$, $NO_3-N$) was maintained within optimal ranges for shrimp growth although that of polyculture ponds showed at least two times higher than that of control ponds. The results suggest that polyculture of L. vannamei with river puffer is higher than monoculture in survival rate and productivity. In addition, F. chinensis should be carefully cultured because this species shows much higher susceptibility to WSSV than L. vannamei.

The present study was carried out to reveal the characteristics of organism responsible for so called vibriosis prevailing in warm water season among cultured kuruma prawn Penaeus japonicus. A bacterium was isolated from the heart, lymphoid organ and muscle of the diseased kuruma prawn. Six strains obtained from diseased kuruma prawn in some culture farms in Namhae and Anhung from august to october in 1989 were submitted to the morphological, biochemical and physiological characterization. All the strains were gram-negative, nonsporning short rods with one polar flagellum. Glucose was fermented with no gas production by these strains. Some distinguishing features of the organisms were negative to lysine, arginine, ornithine decarboxilization test. In general, the temperature $20{\sim}27^{\circ}C$, the NaCl concentration of 2~3% and pH of 6~8 were optimal for the growth in peptone water. The organisms were sensitive to the vibrio static agent 0/129. The isolated should be identified as Vibrio sp.. No essential differences in histopathological finding were noted between the naturally and the experimentally infected prawns. Most characteristic pathological changes were extensive necrosis caused by severe bacteria invasion and multiple formation of meranized nodules in the lymphoid organ.
