Rotifer and Fish Enrichment
|
Enrichment is the process of increasing the HUFA levels of the rotifer to match the nutritional
requirements of the fish. Rotifer do not need enrichment themselves to be healthy, the enrichment is purely for
the advantage of fish.
One of the most important issues when enriching is how
healthy your rotifers are at the end of enrichment. If the enrichment diet
does not contain the nutrition necessary to keep the rotifer healthy and active,
much of the value of the rotifer is lost. N-Rich and Roti-Grow Plus will both
yield rotifers that are as healthy and active after enrichment as before.
Enrichment is determined by a combination of the profile of the base feed, enrichment feeds, and duration of enrichment.
The following are nutritional profiles of of rotifers fed with these feeds.

| Description |
Optimal Nutrition! High in polar (membrane)
lipids for tissue growth, and triglycerides for energy. Also high in protein so the enriched rotifers emerge as
healthy as pre-enriched.
|
All-In-One Feed and Pre-Enrichment. Some hatcheries will be able to eliminate
secondary enrichment due to the high DHA level.
|
This product is the predecessor to N-Rich and has been available since 2007. It is a blend of
Pavlova and other microalgae.
