𝗦𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗢𝗦 will contribute to the ONLINE TRAINING PROGRAMME on “NUTRITION AND FEEDING IN SEABREAM AND SEABASS PRODUCTION”, part of the PerformFISH project capacity building activities.
This two-day training session will deal with nutritional quality of feeds, and techniques and tools for improving feeding and husbandry on the second day. Contents will include recommended dietary levels of minerals and vitamins, novel raw materials in commercial diets, conditioning farmed fish to novel feeds, accurately evaluating fish for skeletal anomalies, biomass and fish length, the use of a decision support tool for optimal feeding, and reviewing current challenges on aquaculture farms. The course will be run in a webinar format, and delivered by members of ULPGC, CSIC, HCMR, SINTEF and SPAROS. This training will be accessible to anyone with an interest or role in the sector, including fish farmers, students/researchers interested in aquaculture nutrition, feed formulators and producers, and aquaculture veterinarians.

Sparos was present at the 8th Strategic Conference for Zebrafish Investigators (SCZI/PI meeting) in Grove (California) and at the AQUACULTURE 2019 in New Orleans (Louisiana) to launch ZEBRAFEED in the USA. This diet is already commercialized in Europe since 2015.

SPAROS has developed ZEBRAFEED – a standard and nutritionally balanced diet for zebrafish formulated with premium ingredients of high nutritional constancy, for all life stages of zebrafish.

ZEBRAFEED results in high survival of larvae, fast growth of juvenile fish and enhanced breeding success in adults. It incorporates the latest scientific knowledge on the nutritional requirements of zebrafish to ensure high welfare standards.
