Shrimp Hatchery Monitoring
Never lose another tank to a midnight oxygen crash.
We watch dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH and salinity in every larval tank — 24 hours a day. The second oxygen starts to fall, we call your phone, so you can act before the tank dies.
What is IoT monitoring for a shrimp hatchery?
IoT monitoring for a shrimp hatchery puts internet-connected sensors in every larval tank, so dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH and salinity are tracked 24×7 and an alert calls your phone the moment a reading turns dangerous — in time to act. It turns the silent overnight losses that kill hatcheries into a phone call you can answer. Read the full guide to IoT for shrimp hatcheries →
A stalled blower at 3 AM can kill millions of seed in minutes.
Each tank is weeks of broodstock, live feed and labour. One power cut, one delayed genset, one Vibrio glow you didn’t catch — and a tank goes from millions of PL to almost zero overnight. We turn that silent disaster into a phone call you can answer.
Power & aeration failure
Oxygen runs out in a packed tank in minutes. The alarm has to fire the instant the blower stops.
Luminescent vibriosis
Up to total loss. By the time the tank glows at night, the crash is already underway.
Ammonia or pH spike
Fragile larvae crash fast when the water turns. A rising trend is your only warning.
What we watch
Every number that decides whether your tank lives.
Each one in plain words, with the safe range and the danger — and an alert the moment a trend turns the wrong way.
The oxygen your larvae breathe. We watch it every few seconds and predict tonight's low before it arrives.
If it goes wrongBelow 4 they gasp; below 2, a packed tank can die in minutes.
Sets how fast everything happens — growth, oxygen demand, and how fast disease spreads.
If it goes wrongA 2°C swing stresses fragile larvae; a heater or chiller fault shows here first.
Decides how much of the ammonia in your water turns into the poisonous form.
If it goes wrongA morning pH jump can make ammonia toxic even when ammonia itself looks fine.
Young larvae cannot handle change. Steady salt water keeps them alive.
If it goes wrongRain intrusion or hot-day evaporation drifts the level — we catch the trend early.
The waste that burns their gills. We calculate the poisonous form for you, automatically.
If it goes wrongIt climbs from overfeeding or a dying algae bloom — cut feed before damage is done.
Stops their blood carrying oxygen, so they suffocate even when oxygen looks fine.
If it goes wrongThe classic mid-cycle spike, far worse in low-salinity water.
The buffer that keeps pH steady. It quietly falls over a cycle.
If it goes wrongWhen it drops, pH starts swinging wildly — we warn you to top up in time.
The glow-in-the-dark bacteria that wipes out hatcheries. Log your plate counts and we trend them.
If it goes wrongA rising count or the first night-time glow flags the tank a day or two early.
Catch it before it glows
See a Vibrio outbreak coming 24–48 hours early.
Log your TCBS plate counts and luminescence checks per tank, and we trend them automatically. A rising count or the first night-time glow flags the tank while the crash is still hours away — the difference between a 60% batch and a zero.
Keep every batch’s PCR results (WSSV, EHP, IHHNV, AHPND) and stress-test QC in one place — proof your seed is clean, so farmers pay more and trust you.
Green Vibrio up 3 days running. Reduce stocking, exchange water, check the batch tonight — before it glows.
Built for real conditions
The alert fires even when the grid is down.
Battery backup keeps the system alive through a power cut — exactly when oxygen crashes. If mobile signal is weak, we fall back to SMS and a voice call. You and your technician both get rung.

FAQ
Shrimp hatchery monitoring — your questions
What does shrimp hatchery monitoring measure?
It continuously measures the water that decides whether a larval tank lives — dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH and salinity — in every tank, around the clock, and lets you log Vibrio plate counts and PCR results (WSSV, EHP, IHHNV, AHPND) alongside them.
How does it prevent a midnight oxygen crash?
Dissolved oxygen is tracked every few seconds. When it starts to fall — for example after an aerator or power failure — the system predicts the pre-dawn low and calls your phone within minutes, so you can act before oxygen drops below about 4 mg/L, where larvae begin to suffocate.
Can it catch a Vibrio (luminescent bacteria) outbreak early?
Yes. By trending your daily TCBS plate counts and the first signs of night-time luminescence per tank, a rising count is flagged 24–48 hours before a crash — the difference between a 60%+ survival batch and a near-total loss.
Does it work during a power cut?
Yes. Battery backup keeps the system alive through a power cut — exactly when oxygen crashes — and if mobile signal is weak it falls back to SMS and a voice call to you and your technician.
Which shrimp species and larval stages does it support?
It is built for Penaeus vannamei (whiteleg shrimp) hatcheries across all larval stages — nauplii, zoea, mysis and postlarvae — with stage-aware safe ranges for each parameter.
Is this an IoT system for shrimp hatcheries?
Yes. It is a full IoT shrimp hatchery monitoring system: internet-connected sensors in every tank stream dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH and salinity to the cloud, show them as plain numbers on your phone, and raise a voice-call alarm the moment a reading turns dangerous — working even during a power cut.
How much does shrimp hatchery monitoring cost?
Cost depends on the number of tanks and parameters you want watched. Against the value of a single tank of postlarvae, the system typically pays for itself the first time it prevents a crash. Book a meeting with the MD for a quote tailored to your hatchery.
