摘要

Abstract

Aquaculture in saline-alkaline water has a major problem: microalgal blooming causes the pH of water to increase dramatically

thereby causing damage to the reared organisms. To solve this problem

we set out to find a candidate filter-feeding bivalve species suitable for saline-alkaline water to graze on microalgae and to control the pH. In the current study

we investigated the effect of carbonate alkalinity (CA

2.5

10.0

and 20.0 meq/L) and pH (8.0

8.5

and 9.0) on the grazing capacity (GC) of the clam Cyclina sinensis. Additionally

the effect of clam size (small

medium

and large) and microalgae species (Nannochloropsis oculata

Chaetoceros müelleri

and Isochrysis galbana)

and the effect of bottom sediment characteristic (mud

sandy mud

and muddy sand) and thickness (3 and 6 cm) were analyzed as well. The results show that the GC on I. galbana was the highest and small size had the maximum GC/W (W: wet weight including body and shells). No significant differences were observed between sediment type and thickness. Regarding CA and pH

a significant decrease in GC by the pH or by their interaction was found. The GC of C. sinensis was not greatly reduced in the treatments of pH≤8.5 and CA≤20.0

and also not affected by bottom sediment type

indicating that this clam is capable to manage microalgal concentrations and might be a candidate species for pH reduction in saline-alkaline water ponds.
