Description:

Planktonic is a Norwegian company dedicated to the development and production of live feed and preserved feed for the aquaculture and aquarium industry. Its value proposition is based on using natural zooplankton as feed for marine species, where the individual zooplankton itself is an intact feed particle, with all its natural qualities preserved, whether it be live or inert feed. Planktonic has developed novel and game changing techniques for commercially utilizing this vast natural marine resource, in a sustainable way. Based on extensive scientific research into zooplankton, combined with a thorough understanding of the needs of commercial aquaculture, the company aims to be a recognized leader within the market for live feed for marine species. Planktonic has developed a unique cryopreservation technology, enabling the preservation and revival of live crustacean nauplii. This could potentially replace most of the use of rotifers and artemia as live feed for the aquaculture industry going forward..
