High quality, sustainable fish fry: free-range fish
Succesful culture of turbotIn our Fish fry hatchery we have the opportunity to raise a range of marine fish species from larvae to fish fry in an ecological and sustainable way. At the heart of the experimental setup is an ecological, sustainable approach, based on an innovative water purification system. The first turbot larvae (Scophthalmus maximus) have been raised succesfully into fish fry. |

Innovative water purification systemUnique in our approach is that we keep water both clean and alive in a closed system. We hereby allow the culture of vulnerable marine organisms such as fish fry. In addition, our technology considerably reduces energy consumption by making traditional water purification techniques, such as sand filters, redundant. |
