DESCRIZIONE
A system for indoor shrimp aquaculture is described that comprises a plurality of stacked raceways, each raceway being a long, flat rectangular tank comprising at least two sections arranged in series and scaled to accommodate shrimp of increasing size. The sections are separated by a moveable section divider whereby shrimp may be transferred between sections once they reach a predetermined size by opening the moveable section divider and allowing the shrimp and water to flow through into the next section. Each raceway includes a waste collection assembly situated at the downstream end of each section for collecting waste for removal. Methods of using the system to grow shrimp are also provided. The raceways are further adapted to facilitate operation of the production module at large scales, in this way; the system is scaleable to achieve high-throughput production of shrimp.
