Nutrient rich & naturally occurring phyto & zoo plankton is the primary source of live food for fish & prawn.
The availability of pond natural food and the mineralization of pond bottom appear to decrease with every
culture cycle. Algae and plankton need fertilization for their growth; essential nutrients are required for
proper sustenance. 'Aqua Green' contains many nutrients that promotes and sustains optimal fertility in pond.
It creates healthy green phytoplankton blooms in ponds and lakes. Unlike regular pond fertilizers, 'Aqua
Green' accelerates the ponds' naturally occurring bio-oxidative processes to consume organic materials,
prevent sludge buildup, and manage nutrient overload in fish ponds and lakes.
Phytoplankton
Phytoplankton are the foundation of the aquatic food web, the primary producers, feeding everything from
microscopic, animal-like zooplankton to multi-ton whales.
Phytoplankton is a natural, nutrition-packed food. It contains nutrition for a wide range of aquatic life.
They absorb nutrients from the water around them with carbon dioxide to create essential nutrients critical
to the health and development of most aquatic organisms. Phytoplankton growth depends on the availability of
carbon dioxide, sunlight, and nutrients.
Phytoplankton is also an important source of dissolved oxygen. It produces oxygen by
photosynthesis at a much faster rate than oxygen can diffuse from the atmosphere into the pond water.
Phytoplankton rapidly removes ammonia nitrogen from the water lessening the concentration of this potentially
toxic substance.
Finally, turbidity created by phytoplankton restricts light penetration to the pond bottom,
and a phytoplankton bloom is a good control measure for aquatic macrophytes that grow below the water
surface.
