In aquaculture, one of the issues that has created controversy in recent years has been the quality of wastewater from shrimp ponds, generating as a main concern the possible impact that this causes the environment, the above mentioned is due to That its wastewater carries large amounts of suspended material, whether solid, organic or inorganic, as well as a high nutrient load. Some of the systems developed in aquaculture originate considerable amounts of waste water that have compounds such as nitrogen, phosphorus and suspended solids, this is largely due to the development of aquaculture and its progressive increase in the demand for shrimp as a marine product. Therefore the cessation of activity is ruled out and it is necessary to develop cultivation methodologies with systems suitable for the treatment of its wastewater, various chemical, physical and biological methods are currently known that are used to reduce the degree of affectation Of wastewater, systems that have developed because of the direct concern between the proportionality of the waste load and the production of shrimp. In the following review we emphasize several alternatives of combined systems between micro and macro organisms for the treatment of effluents of shrimp farms, analyzing the current conditions, the concentration of residual nutrients, giving an idea of the possible treatments to reduce and to avoid where possible Pollution of natural resources.
