Secchi's disc is an essential tool in monitoring water quality in fish farming systems, especially in excavated nurseries and high tanks. It allows to accurately measure water transparency, a direct indicator of the presence of phytoplankton, zooplankton and suspended solids, fundamental to the health of the aquatic environment and fish.
Maintaining water transparency under control is crucial to ensure oxygen production, nutrient balance and survival of aquatic organisms, avoiding conditions that may impair photosynthesis and cultivation quality.
✅ Benefits of Secchi Disk Measurement:
Assists in controlling the ecological balance of the tank
Indicates the presence and growth of phytoplankton and zooplankton
Helps to avoid overproduction of algae and possible oxygen collapses
Contributes to water management decisions and fish food
