Description Devices and technologies associated with dosed sea water/brackish water recycling systems for the cultivation, maintenance and management of marine/ brackish water organisms under controlled conditions without any water exchange are described. Hitherto known-designs and processes of closed water aquaculture systems mostly involve complicate machinery, low denitrification rates and consequent low carrying capacity. Overflow of culture water in case of electric or pump failure necessitating partial or full replacement of the culture media from time to time was also a common handicap. The existing designs have been refined and improved by additions and alterations at various stages for maximizing the efficiency and carrying capacity of the system, which registered a three fold increase (3.426 kg 1000 l(-1)) compared to conventional designs (1.18 kg 1000 l sup(-1)). The design can be scaled up or scaled down depending upon the needs
