Did you know the University of NC-Wilmington (UNCW) has an entire division that studies microalgae for fish food and another entire complex that also grows and studies Both algae and microalgae?
Based in North Carolina, BVG has worked with and since developed partnerships with the local Community Colleges and Universities.
They taught us Chlorella delivers protein, essential amnio acids lipids, vitamins, minerals and functional nutrients that can support the diverse needs of fish production.
Fish Deserve Better Food Too!
Fish farmers require the following for their aquatic species. Chlorella checks every box.
– Protein (often 30–55% depending on species)
– Essential amino acids
– Lipids (especially omega3 fatty acids)
– Carbohydrates (limited use in many fish)
– Vitamins & minerals
– Functional additives (probiotics, antioxidants, microalgae)
Different aquatic animals have very different digestive systems:
– Herbivorous fish (tilapia) can use plant proteins and carbohydrates
– Shrimp require specific amino acid profiles and immune-support additive
– Carnivorous fish (salmon, trout) need high protein and marine oils
Nature spent billions of years shaping Chlorella for the life it supports, BVG has spent fourteen learning how to unlock its commercial power for the world’s producers.
