SUGGESTED FEEDING PROTOCOL FOR SEA BASS
ALGAMAC-3000   /  ARTEMAC  /  ECONOMAC BACK TO ARTEMAC

Back Next

[ Pmonodon ] [ Lvannamei ] [ Sea Bass ] [ Sea Bream ]

*** ArteMac was designed to have a slightly positive bouyancy factor.    For application, take the desired amount of dry product and emulsify with water (fresh or seawater).  The product will initially sink, but with hydration during the first five minutes, the product will float to the top.   More than 60% of the product will adopt a positive bouyancy factor and the balance will remain suspended or slightly negatively bouyant.
Reduction in Artemia + a replacement with ArteMac = Less Dependency on Artemia    
Note: Quantities shown below are suggested regimen. Adjust to fit your own feeding protocols.
