All feed formulas developed by Aller Aqua at the Aller Aqua Research Centre follow these requirements to ensure proper growth and health:
High-Protein Diet: Diets typically contain 40–45% protein to support growth, feed efficiency, and body development. Protein sources include fishmeal, soybean meal, wheat gluten, and other plant-based concentrates. Feed formulations are adjusted by life stage, with higher protein ratios during juvenile phases.
Fat and Energy Needs: Fat content ranges from 12–20%, depending on growth stage and water temperature. Energy is supplied through a mix of fish oil and plant-based oils, like rapeseed and sunflower. Proper energy-to-protein balance improves growth performance and maintains good flesh quality.
Essential Nutrients: Feeds are enriched with vitamins A, D, C, and E to support immunity and antioxidant defense. Minerals such as phosphorus, calcium, zinc, and selenium are included for bone and metabolic health. Omega-3 fatty acids promote cardiovascular health in consumers and improve fish stress resistance.
