Learn how leading aquaculture programs are improving efficiency, biosecurity, and output with automated water analysis.

Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) are rapidly reshaping global fish production, but maintaining the precise water conditions needed for healthy growth can be challenging as facilities scale. This application note explores how universities, researchers, and commercial aquaculture operations are streamlining water testing workflows to support consistent, data-driven RAS performance.

What You’ll Learn:

• Why RAS is driving global aquaculture growth and the demand for advanced water monitoring
• Key water quality parameters that influence fish health, mortality, and production rates
• How researchers at Virginia Tech, Virginia State University, and USDA programs are saving hours per week with automated testing workflows
• Ways to eliminate hazardous reagents, reduce user error, and capture time-stamped digital data
• How measuring up to eight parameters simultaneously improves oversight across hatcheries, grow-out systems, and aquaponics

Who This is For:

Whether you manage an aquaculture farm, research center, or training program, this guide shows how faster, safer water analysis is helping RAS facilities operate more efficiently—without increasing staff burden.
