Necton is the oldest company in Europe producing and selling microalgae. Serving the sector of aquaculture since the beginning of the company in 1997, Necton has acquired a large experience regarding rotifer feeding and fish nutrition. Rotifers are applied with high success in larviculture of many teleost species. Altricial larvae, such as zebrafish larvae, have immature organs after hatching. Enriched rotifers present several advantages over microdiets, including higher digestibility, therefore improving larvae survival. This strategy can also be used as a tool to strategically improve broodstock nutrition and consequently improve zebrafish reproductive efficiency and offspring quality. In the scope of the research project Zebrabloom (zebrabloom.com), Necton has been developing microalgae blends specifically for zebrafish rearing and reproduction. With a particular focus in zebrafish nutritional requirements, our products seek to improve fish physiology, fitness, and genetic expression, to avoid bias in data interpretation.
