When tilapia eggs hatch, the larvae rely on the yolk sac to provide the nutritional needs before they begin feeding. The larvae are vulnerable to starvation and need to feed continuously during this period. In nature, there isn’t always a constant supply of feed and many fry will die during this first stage of life.

In hatcheries however, sufficient amounts of high quality starter feeds can be continuously supplied. Feed production techniques allow us to produce feeds with properties that fit specific life stage needs. The slow sinking Nutra crumbles give all fry an equal opportunity to feed.

Nutra micropellet technology ensures uniform particle sizes that float, for easy capture by fingerlings, ensuring a very high survival rate and uniform growth.

In these specialised feeds, both the digestible protein and digestible energy are adjusted according to fish size. As body size increases, the percentage of digestible protein needed for optimal growth decreases along with it.

Optiline provides state-of-the-art nutrition; allowing for high fish performance, highest feed efficiency and lowest FCR.

Feed formulation of Optiline ensures an optimised digestible nutrient, digestible energy and raw material digestibility specifically designed for the digestive system of tilapia. This is to ensure flexible raw material use and provide a consistent quality product.

In addition, when feeding Optiline there will be lower nutrient discharge and lowerimpact on fish environment.

Optiline is formulated to maximise protein efficiency for the different fish sizes and up to 1 kg of fish weight.

Tilapia can be exposed to various challenges throughout the life cycle. Nutrition and functional feeds can play a vital role in maintaining fish health. Protec is Skretting’s prime functional feed for farmed tilapia, enhancing fish resistance and immunity. 

Protec is a Proactive functional feed. It contains a complex profile of innovative functional ingredients which safeguard tilapia during challenging phases. It is based on three pillars: Shield, Support and Balance. It helps to shield natural defenses of the fish, it supports the immune system and optimises the balance between fish, microbes and environment. 

Tilapia are continuous spawners and have a high turnover rate of protein and energy. Breeders are valuable and supporting recovery between spawnings is very important.

Vitalis provides the nutrients needed for embryonic development, gonadal development of females, and the performance of fry and fingerlings.

Vitalis is a floating feed specifially designed for tilapia breeders. Vitalis is formulated according to the Protec principals.
