Introduction and Background to Bio Anti-Algue

The Rationale for the use of Probiotics in Aquaculture

The Protexin Aqua-Complete products are complex blends of Bacillus microorganisms that promote a healthy environment for fish, crustaceans (e.g. shrimp), molluscs and other animals, grown in fresh, brackish and marine waters, by helping to lower sludge build up, stabilise plankton and improve water quality in fresh, brackish and marine waters. The Protexin Aqua-Complete Program works as a preventative strategy and should be used from the beginning of the crop cycle to achieve best results.

Activated Protexin Aqua-Bio will inundate aquaculture and water systems with beneficial microbes to improve water quality, to help boost the overall health of the shrimp or fish and aid in the suppression of numbers of viruses and pathogenic bacteria.


Benefits of the Protexin Aqua-Complete Program

Helps in the management for sustainable aquaculture production

  • Aids in the inhibition of pathogenic Vibrio
  • Help reduce the virulence of White Spot and Yellow Head and reduce susceptibility of shrimp to White Spot and Yellow Head
  • Balance and stabilise algal blooms especially zooplankton levels which improves FCR
  • Aids in improvement in productivity / hectare due to increased survivability and improved Biomass
  • Aids sludge control and water quality improvement leading to less need for water exchange, reduced ammonia and nitrogenous compounds

These benefits are universal in that they benefit the:

  • Farmer, by reducing disease incidence and improving production yields
  • Consumer, by eliminating the risk of antibiotic residues or resistances
  • Environment, by reducing the impact of aquaculture pond effluent

Recommended use:

Protexin Aqua-Media is essential to promote the germination and rapid growth of Protexin Aqua-Bio. 130 g of Aqua-Media and 50 g of Aqua-Bio is recommended for a pond measuring 15 megalitres (1 ha area by 1.5 m depth) at a stocking density of 25+  pcs per sqm.

Protexin Aqua-Media is an easy to use proprietary formulation containing peptones, minerals and other nutrients to maximise the germination and subsequent rapid growth of Bacillus species for use in aquaculture and water treatment systems. To ensure biosecurity the peptones in Protexin Aqua-Media have been sterilised. Protexin Aqua-Media is a very effective and cost-effective means for growing very large numbers of viable, beneficial bacteria in a short time.  For the spores to germinate, it is necessary to provide a short 'heat shock' by adding the spores to freshly boiled water. Protexin Aqua-Media is essential to promote the germination and rapid growth of Protexin Aqua-Bio.
