Aquaculture Trace Minerals
Nutrition encompasses chemical and physiological process which provides nutrients to the body of aquatic species which are essential for normal function of the body, increase in immunity, resistance from diseases, maintenance of health and proper growth of the body. Also, it involves ingestion, digestion, absorption and transfer of nutrients all across the body. There are many elements which are recognized that boost the functionality of the body. Also, the minerals are classified as Macro (required in considerable quantities) and micro minerals (required in lesser quantity). The micro minerals are termed as Trace Minerals. The trace minerals are mostly needed for fishes and shrimps and plays greater role in shrimp nutrition for maintaining health and faster growth.
Aquaculture species has been developed extensively with increased level. The natural source of minerals and other nutrients for them are gained from the pond which act as a natural resource of the food. But today where they are cultivated commercially, the nutrition that are soluble in the water that are required to them for growth and better health is not sufficient and are limited to some extent. The additional balanced diet is needed and provided as feeding to aquatic species to overcome from nutritional deficiency. Thus we use trace minerals which will provide all nutrients to their body which helps in growth of the body, disease resistance to the body and provide relief from stress.
In this we use “ATM Pro” an excellent Trace mineral supplement that contains all essential minerals that are very essential for aquaculture species like fishes and shrimps that provide all nutrients to their body which result in faster and better growth of the body with disease resistance capability. Some of the major minerals which are essential and are available in ATM Pro are Cobalt, Copper, Iodine, Iron, Magnesium, Potassium, Calcium & Zinc.
With the regular uses of this Trace mineral it can provide many health benefits to aquaculture and are described below.
1. Improves immune responses and facilitates rapid recovery from diseases.
2. Improves muscles strength and structural integrity.
3. Helps in removing all kind of stress.
4. Enhance Growth and Improves FCR.
5. Lowers mortality ratio.
Dosage & Direction
For Fishes & Shrimps: 1Kg/Ton of feed.
Or, as directed by aquaculture consultants.
