Fish Breeding. Oxygen for Fish Breeding

For companies engaged in breeding fish, crabs and shrimp, R&P Co. Grasys is pleased to offer special equipment to produce oxygen from the air.

We are involved in designing and manufacturing oxygen generators (oxygenators) and oxygen units to produce pure oxygen. Through the use of such equipment the efficiency of breeding fish, shrimp and crabs is improved, and plenty of fish is raised at low cost.

The Key Issues to Address

  • Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) oxygenation
  • Water reservoir aeration when breeding fish

When breeding fish, farms pay a lot of attention to oxygen indicators in water. This is of great current interest to both industrial-scale fish breeding and small farms. Fish farms that use recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) enjoy ever-growing popularity.

Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) is a frame pool where fish are raised under the closed water exchange cycle conditions. Due to the high fish population density, the RAS water needs enriching with oxygen. Oxygen is also required when transporting live fish in tanks, especially in the summertime.

Grasys is engaged in manufacturing air separation generators and oxygen production units for fish, shrimp, crab and mussel farming companies. Oxygen units enable to produce oxygen from the atmosphere air; this is environmentally-friendly, efficient and highly cost-effective kind of equipment.

Subject to the application and the desired oxygen purity, Grasys is proud to offer equipment based on adsorption or membrane technology, both permanent-type and mobile (containerized).

General Application

he proper oxygen concentration for fish depends on species and development stage: eggs, fish larvae, juveniles, harvestable fish. The oxygen concentration details are also essential when transporting fish.

The conducted research has shown that the use of oxygen units and plants in incubation workshops for growing juveniles results in:

  • increasing the juvenile yield up to 2–2.5 times
  • increasing juveniles survival up to 98%
  • increasing the juvenile weight gain fry by a factor of 1.5–1.8
  • decreasing the incubation period by twice or two and a half times

The use of Grasys oxygen units for fish breeding will permit you to reduce the feed ratio by a factor of 1.3–1.5, and improve the fish weight gain by a factor of 1.4–1.6.

Commercial Efficiency of Using Oxygen in Fish Breeding

  • Oxygen generators for water saturation are wide-spread in fish culture facilities across Russia, the CIS and Europe thanks to improving performance in fish breeding
  • The gaseous oxygen introduction into water substantially increases production results, multi-fold improves fish stocking density per oxygen unit volume in water, essentially reduces water consumption, enriches habitat and water purity.
  • As of today, no advanced fish farm is capable of competing favorably without using oxygen

Example of Oxygen-Use Efficiency for Fish Farms

  • The use of Grasys oxygen equipment when raising fish is instrumental in achieving its weight gain by a factor of 1.4-1.6, along with contributing to the feed factor decrease by a factor of 1.3-1.5. We suggest that when breeding fish you make use of the state-of-the-art high-tech equipment, which will result in improving your profit margin.
  • Superior production performance is achieved with a high oxygen concentration in water throughout the entire raising period. Even at hot temperatures the fish remain active and keeps enjoying their foodthus lowering the risk of loss. In addition, the use of Grasys oxygen plants makes it possible to obtain industrial scale fish farming on small volumes of water.

Advantages of Grasys Oxygen Systems for Fish Breeding:
