Denitrification by anaerobic bacteria is one of the most common processes of removing nitrate from recirculating aquaculture systems. This process is affected by many factors such as external carbon sources, hydraulic retention time (HRT), and $COD/NO_3-N$ ratio. Although external organic carbon sources are essential for the denitrification process, these also contribute to increase dissolved organic carbon concentration in recirculating aquaculture systems. So these external organic carbons must be removed from the systems. This study was conducted to find out the optimum operating conditions for the removal of external organic carbons in a submerged denitrification biofilter. Combinations of two external carbon sources (glucose and methanol), two HRT (4- and 8-hour), and four different C:N ratios (3, 4, 5, and 6) were used in this experiment. The removal efficiencies of organic carbon sources at 8-hour HRT were always better than those at 4-hour's (P<0.05). Maximum removal efficiencies were achieved when C:N ratio was 5 in both glucose and methanol. The removal efficiencies of methanol were always better than those of glucose. The maximum removal efficiencies of glucose and methanol were 76.5% and 84.0%, respectively and the removal rates were 223.5 $g/m^2/day$ and 247.1$g/m^2/day$. The maximum removal rates of glucose (290.9 $g/m^2/day$) and methanol (355.6 $g/m^2/day$) were achieved at 4-hour HRT and 5 C:N ratio. But the concentrations of SCOD in the effluent of both glucose ($52.5 mg/\ell$) and methanol ($40.9 mg/\ell$) were too high for rearing fish. Therefore, the optimum operating conditions for the removal of external carbon in a submerged denitrification biofilter were 8-hour HRT and 5 C:N ratio. And methanol showed better efficiency as an external carbon sources.
