Fish Feed - Zooplankton 

INTRODUCTION

•We are University researchers seeking investments and partnerships with potential investors who are interested in new products to promote aquaculture and food security

•Our mission is to promote the use of novel microbial resources as alternative aquaculture feed through sustainable green technology

•In the face of pollution and dwindling common-use resources, we envision that the use of unconventional, unexploited fish feeds is a way forward

•Work with us to establish a vibrant venture and future following blue ocean strategy

WHAT IS POMEBAC USED FOR? 

•We produce two types of phototrophic bacteria, one type (fPB) that is suitable for culturing  freshwater zooplankton, and another type (mPB) that is suitable for culturing brackishwater/marine zooplankton  

• Phototrophic bacteria are very small in size and therefore, suitable for culturing small organisms like rotifers, cladocerans, copepods, Artemia, chironomid larvae, etc.

•In turn, these small organisms are commonly used as aquaculture live feed for various species of fish and invertebrates

•Our fPB and mPB are prepared in semi-fluid form, packed in 1 L (content 800 mL) or 5 L (content 4 L) containers, and sold frozen
