Enrichments
for Live Feed
ABN's
zooplankton enrichment products provide the highest levels of DHA
and ARA in rotifers and Artemia, resulting in improved larval
survival and growth of many food-fish species. Because they contain
no EPA, our products enable an ideal high DHA:EPA ratio in zooplankton,
a ratio not possible with fish oil-based emulsions.
Algae
are part of the natural aquatic food chain, so they are readily
ingested by rotifers and Artemia, giving ABN's products a
natural advantage over emulsion-based enrichments. Studies have
shown that ABN's unique phospholipid-based products yield high tissue
levels of DHA or ARA in zooplankton--much higher than is possible
using fish oil emulsions. ABN's products are in powdered form, and
thus have a longer shelf life and impart better water quality than
emulsions.
AquaGrow® ADVANTAGE: Excellent DHA enrichment for rotifers and Artemia.
Ideal for live feed enrichments; provides a rich source of DHA
and other phytonutrients. High (10% by weight) DHA algal-source
enrichment improves larval growth and development by providing
ideal DHA:EPA ratio in Artemia and rotifers. High-fat algal
cells remain buoyant in the water column and accessible to zooplankton.
Excellent supplement to live algae for zoea-stage shrimp, and
great supplement to larval diet for early PL-stage shrimp. Contains
intact algal cells and thus will not leach or contribute to foaming
or fouling, unlike fish oil emulsions. Average particle size:
12 microns.
AquaGrow® ADVANTAGE-EN: Excellent DHA/astaxanthin enrichment for rotifers
and Artemia. ADVANTAGE-EN contains the intact cells of two
algae that are natural aquatic food sources. It provides same
benefits as AquaGrow® ADVANTAGE, with addition of astaxanthin and
a higher protein and beta-glucan content. Also yields improved
survival and growth rates for hard-to-grow ornamental species.
Contains 10% (by weight) algal-source DHA as well as natural algal-source
astaxanthin, for improved egg hatching rates, larval survival,
and pigmentation. Particle size range: 5-12 microns.
AquaGrow® ADVANTAGE-BL: Unique DHA/ARA enrichment for rotifers and Artemia.
Ideal for live feed enrichments; provides rich source of DHA and
ARA. Unique combination of microbially derived DHA and ARA in
optimal 5:1 ratio. When added as supplement to fish broodstock
diets, it can dramatically improve reproduction and egg hatching
rates in finfish, and increase survival rates during periods of
osmotic stress and metamorphosis to adulthood. As a supplement
in larval diets, ADVANTAGE-BL can boost tolerance to disease and
increase post-stress survival.
