Amplicon sequencing data from biofilm and aquatic microbial communities during recirculating aquaculture of african catfish (Clarias gariepinus)
V3 - V4 hypervariable region of the 16S rRNA were amplified via PCR (primer forward 5  3: GTGCCAGCMGCCGCGGTAA; reverse: GGACTACHVGGGTWTCTAAT) and sent for sequencing with Illumina sequencing technology at the Centre for genomic research (University of Liverpool)
