Especially selected for marine fish larvae

EG Artemia cysts are harvested generally, indiscriminately from the surface and shores of the Great Salt Lake, Utah (US).

After processing, a quality assessment is performed: each harvest is subjected to a fingerprinting to categorize all important characteristics and parameters such as hatching/enrichment kinetics, decapsulation, separation, contamination, fatty acid profile, biometrics, ...
Based on the results of this fingerprinting, INVE grades and selects the cysts that are best suited for fish hatcheries.

• CONSISTENT QUALITY AND CERTIFIED OUTPUT
• SIMULTANEOUS HATCHING
• HIGH ENRICHMENT LEVELS

Instar I/II ratio

The typical Instar I/II ratio for EG 2007 is 10/90.

The time taken for 90% of the hatchable cysts to hatch out is approximately 18 hours. For hatcheries that wish to harvest predominantly Instar I nauplii, harvesting should be performed at T18.
