1) How Farmers Can Check Shrimp Health Using Check Trays

If shrimp jump actively, they are healthy.

If you see fouling, mud, or fungal growth on the shrimp body, health is not good.

Check whether feed is present in the gut or not.

Observe the color and condition of the hepatopancreas.

Check if the shell is clean and strong.

Check for damage to legs or tail.

2) How to Monitor Shrimp Molting Using Check Trays

Look for molted shells in the check tray and record the molting date.

If the shrimp’s shell is soft and the shrimp is weak, it has recently molted.

If the shell is hard and shrimp is active, molting has not yet happened.

Do not harvest during molting — complete molting before harvest.

3) How to Adjust Feeding Using Check Trays

If feed remains in the check tray, it means overfeeding.

If feed is fully consumed on time, feeding is correct.

4) How to Assess Pond Water Quality Using Check Trays

Check the color, smell, and clarity of the waste on the tray.

Excess organic waste or sludge indicates poor water quality.

If shrimp begin to come to the surface or reduce feeding, water quality may be stressed.

Regularly monitor for fouling or unhealthy shrimp behavior.

5) How to Track Shrimp Growth and Size Variation Using Check Trays

Record shrimp growth and size regularly using the check tray.

Take growth records after molting for accurate results.

Monitor FCR (Feed Conversion Ratio) and size variation in every sample
