Oxygen Requirement Calculator

Dissolved oxygen (DO) demand scales with biomass, species and water temperature. Aeration, LRP oxygen cones and pure-O₂ injection for RAS or intensive shrimp ponds must exceed peak demand — typically 2–4 hours after feeding — plus a 50% safety margin for warm-water events and power failure recovery.

Scenario modelling

Pessimistic accounts for peak-biomass heat waves; optimistic assumes stable temperature control.

Turn this result into 1–3 supplier quotes

Send this spec privately to selected manufacturers.

FishMatch Group reaches out on your behalf — your name, project and location stay confidential until you accept a quote. No sign-up, no listing fees, buyers never pay.

How supplier matching works

  1. 1. Private brief. Your spec goes only to manufacturers we have selected for the right category, capacity and export experience.
  2. 2. Confidential outreach. Suppliers see the technical spec — not your name, company or exact location — until you accept a quote.
  3. 3. 1–3 comparable quotes. Typically within 5–10 business days, aligned on scope so you can compare like-for-like.
  4. 4. Financing intro (optional). If needed, we introduce your project to a financing partner. No fee to buyers.

Notes

  • Peak demand occurs 2–4 hours after feeding — size aeration to peak, not average.
