Adequate intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids is particularly important for the growth of deep-sea fish, especially when they are larve. Similar to humans, juveniles need to consume more?DHA?to allow their vision and nerve tissue to fully develop.?[1]
Studies shown that after being fed with Schizochytrium algae powder, proportion of unsaturated fatty acids and?Ω-3/Ω-6?in shrimp?has increased.?[2]
Substantial research proves that adding microalgae (Schizochytrium algae powder) to feed significantly increase Ω-3 (DHA) content in fish, shrimp and other aquatic products.
