REVIVE ARTEMIA
Undoubtedly Artemia is the best live animal for feeding fish larvae since no other animal can survive in a dried form for an extended period of time which is very important for fish farmers and hatcheries.
Revive Artemia is naturally grown in salty lake in Russia and processed in a natural way in order to preserve nutritional values and is marketed in EU region and worldwide by VARS Aquaculture Company.
Revive Artemia benefits from a high protein rate (55%) which is an ideal concentration for feeding larvae, juvenile fish and broodstock. Artemia-eating fishes grow faster and have better fertility rate.
This high quality Artemia can be used for marine species ,freshwater and saltwater aquariums of any size in hatcheries, at home or at work.
We guarantee our product quality for our customers.
QUALITY CHARACTERISTIC
Dry Artemia Cyst
CPG or "Number of Cyst per Gram" varies with size and genus of Artemia which is not related to quality.However quality of Artemia is affected by "Hatching Rate" and its nutritional values or biomass.We have been harvesting Artemia from our two lakes in Russia for more than 20 years.
We guarantee superior product quality and consistency with a stable hatching rate of minimum 85%. Every year about 700 ton wet Artemia and 400 ton dry cyst and processed Artemia are harvested from our two lakes.
We honorably invite our customer for lake visit with a tour of our facilities in Russia during harvest time.
