ZEOLITE ADDITIVE FOR ANIMAL FEED AND METHOD OF USING SAME

摘要

Method of reducing the level of ammonia in an aquatic environment used for commercially raising and harvesting fish. A fish feed composed of the usual materials is combined with a zeolite additive. The combination forms a composition which is fed to the fishes and allows for the increased removal of ammonia from the fish enclosure in both non-circulating and recirculating aquatic or aquacultural systems. The removal of the ammonia has several advantages which allows increased production, particularly in aquacultural fish harvesting systems where water is recirculated.
