As a fresh algae product, the paste is a necessary basic food for the breeding of aquatic larvae and rotifers. The unprocessed paste can be stored in the freezer for a long time.
Microalgae are essential for the optimal breeding of rotifers and larvae.
Algaspring specialises in feed for aquariums. The feed NannoStar is easy to handle and consists of 100% fresh, frozen microalgae. The high content of the unsaturated fatty acid EPA promotes the healthy development of aquatic animals. With the addition of NannoStar a high water quality is maintained in the culture and the rotifer yield is correspondingly high.
Nannochloropsis paste is rich in valuable amino acids and essential fatty acids such as EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid), which is essential for the growth and development of rotifers and larvae (crustaceans and molluscs).
