An innovative new diet supports the mass culture of rotifers at the same time it transforms their nutritional composition to meet the requirements of first-feeding fish larvae. As in nature, the diet is based on a mixture of algae-based nutrients to which rotifers respond.
Health & Welfare
In trials, a culture diet that naturally enhances rotifers and eliminates the need for enrichment was tested. Skretting feed specialists found similar growth and reproduction figures were registered with a conventional rotifer enrichment diet and a standalone diet for a period of nine weeks.

Intensive rotifer culture systems can significantly reduce the space and labor requirements for the production of rotifers in marine finfish hatcheries.
