May 10th, we celebrate National Shrimp Day. But for the aquaculture industry, it’s about more than just recipes; it's about understanding the biology of the shrimp we eat.
A common question in hatchery management is: how often do shrimp reproduce? While this varies by species, the success of each cycle depends on the larvae's first meal. The shrimp we eat rely on a precise nutrient-dense diet of microalgae, like Chaetoceros or Thalassiosira, to grow in the earliest stages.
High-density, biosecure algae (like those produced in our PBRs) help these larvae survive and become the shrimp found on our dinner tables.
This Shrimp Day, let’s focus on the science that makes the harvest possible.
