Scientific Solutions · Four Products For Precise Resolution
❗Core Pain Points
- Small mouthparts of larvae, mismatched particle size of ordinary compound feed, resulting in low first feeding rate
- Insufficient early nutrition leads to poor intestinal development and a sharp drop in survival rate
- Low-protein starter feed cannot meet the rapid development needs of larvae
🧪Scientific Solution — High-Quality Frozen Natural Brine Shrimp
-
Brine shrimp significantly improves fish larval survival rate
The survival rate of tilapia larvae fed brine shrimp reached (98.00±0.54)%, significantly higher than that of the low-protein feed group (92.00±1.50)%; meanwhile, the intestinal tissue structure was better and the abundance of beneficial flora was higher.
-
Frozen adult brine shrimp significantly improves the survival rate of Marsupenaeus japonicus.
A combined diet of artificial feed + frozen adult brine shrimp achieved the highest survival rate among all treatment groups in the experiment.
-
Increasing brine shrimp feeding rate continuously improves survival rate.
Experiments on Litopenaeus vannamei hatchery show that increasing brine shrimp supplementation significantly improves survival rate at the PL15 stage, with the effect persisting through the PL35 stage.

❗Core Pain Points
- Low digestibility of feed protein leads to slow weight gain and prolonged breeding cycle
- Lack of natural antibacterial substances makes larvae susceptible to pathogens
- High fish meal prices impose significant cost pressure
🧪Scientific Solution — High-Quality Frozen Housefly Larvae
-
Housefly Larvae Protein Improves Shrimp Growth and Intestinal Microbiota
Fermented and high-temperature pelleted housefly larvae protein significantly enhances growth performance and survival rate of Litopenaeus vannamei, while increasing the abundance of beneficial intestinal bacteria (Ruegeria and Pseudomonas) and inhibiting harmful bacteria.
-
Insect protein contains antimicrobial peptides, enhancing immunity
Insect protein is rich in natural active substances such as antimicrobial peptides and chitin, which significantly improve growth, immunity and disease resistance of aquatic animals, making it a high-quality alternative to fish meal.
-
Antimicrobial Peptides Enhance Disease Resistance
Supplementation of insect antimicrobial peptides (100–150 mg/kg) in feed significantly increases weight gain rate of Cherax quadricarinatus, strengthens resistance to Aeromonas hydrophila, and improves survival rate.

❗Core Pain Points
- Marine fish and shrimp larvae have limited ability to synthesize DHA/EPA on their own and must obtain them from feed
- Rotifers and Artemia naturally contain insufficient DHA/EPA and require additional nutrient enrichment.
- A lack of DHA/EPA leads to larval deformities and low survival rates.
🧪Scientific Solution — High-Quality Frozen Copepods
-
Copepods contain much higher DHA/EPA than Artemia and require no enrichment
Copepods have a protein content of 73.4% (dry weight), EPA content of 10.7 mg/g, and DHA content of 17.6 mg/g — far higher than Artemia.Their natural DHA:EPA ratio is close to the optimal 2:1, allowing direct use in hatchery production.
-
Copepods Have Higher Nutritional Value Than Rotifers and Artemia
Copepod nauplii and adults are rich in essential fatty acids, amino acids and vitamins, which are crucial for the immune system and organ development of fish and shrimp larvae. Their nutritional value is higher than than of rotifers and Artemia.
-
Marine fish have strict requirements for LC-PUFA
Marine fish have limited ability to synthesize DHA/EPA and must be supplied with pre-formed LC-PUFA in their diet; demand for EPA and DHA is highest during the larval stage.

❗Core Pain Points
- Formulated feeds have poor attractiveness, leading to inactive feeding by larvae and residual feed polluting water quality.
- Lack of natural feeding attractants results in low feed utilization efficiency.
- Insufficient feeding during critical larval stages impairs growth potential in later periods.
🧪Scientific Solution — High-Quality Frozen Flower Clam Meat
-
Frozen/Fresh Clam Meat Improves Growth Rate and Survival of Shrimp
In a 45-day culture trial, banana shrimp fed clam meat achieved a weight gain rate of 369.8%, significantly higher than the commercial pellet group (173.9%) and ragworm group (240.4%). For survival rate, treatments with clam meat showed significantly higher survival, reaching up to 60%.
-
Taurine: The Optimal Feeding Stimulant for Shrimp
Research conducted by the Japan Higashito Aquaculture Research Institute shows that taurine is the best feeding attractant additive in shrimp diets, with feeds containing taurine exhibiting the best feeding response. Fresh clams are the richest natural source of taurine.
-
Combination of Artificial Feed + Fresh Clam Meat Optimizes Shrimp Culture Performance
The combination of formulated feed plus fresh clam meat ranked second only to the optimal group (formulated feed + frozen adult Artemia), yielding faster growth rate and lower feed conversion ratio. It was significantly superior to feeding formulated feed alone.
