Broodstock feeds
A strong start for the next generation
Explore the benefits of our broodstock feeds
Aller Aqua’s broodstock feeds are developed using the latest advancements in feed formulation, combined with cutting-edge genetic insights into fish reproduction.
Optimized Reproductive Performance
Formulated with essential nutrients and genetic insights to support egg quality, hatchability, and fry survival rates.
High digestibility
Easily absorbed nutrients reduce waste and enhance feed efficiency, supporting clean water and strong broodstock condition.
Improved spawning outcomes
Stable feed composition ensures broodstock receive the exact nutrients needed throughout the reproductive cycle. Aller Aqua's broodstock feeds are enriched with specific vitamins and fatty acids known to regulate reproductive hormones and improve spawning outcomes.
Boosts fry quality and viability
Delivers key nutrients that directly impact the health, growth potential, and resistance of offspring. Aller Aqua's broodstock feeds are distinghuished by customized formulations for a wide range of species to ensure peak reproductive success under various farming conditions.
High quality fish fry forms the foundation of every viable fish business.
The future performance potential and health of farmed fish are highly dependent on the quality of the offspring.
This in turn is closely linked to the accumulation and delivery of precious nutrients from the female. It is therefore essential for broodstock feeds to ensure that all essential nutrient requirements are met.
In the case of caviar for human consumption the quality of eggs and their traits are the direct parameters for success.
Formulating broodstock feeds
Aller Aqua’s broodstock feeds are formulated based on the respective reproductive biology of several fish species, the latest research on the nutritional requirements of broodstock and offspring and a careful selection of the finest raw materials. Several nutrients have been identified to be beneficial for performance of broodstock:
Beneficial for performance of broodstock
AMINO ACIDS Protein is the main energy source during embryonic development and specific essential amino acids ensure healthy growth of the embryos. CAROTENOIDS Due to their strong antioxidant properties carotenoids play an important role in the protection of cell membranes against free radicals. FATTY ACIDS Highly unsaturated fatty acids facilitate fertilization, are an important energy source for embryos and have important structural and physiological functions in growing fish in their further development. VITAMINS Several vitamins are essential for fish and require special attention in broodstock feeds since they play important roles in egg development, sperm motility and cell protection.
