Gemma - the next generation

Following extensive field testing, Skretting has released a newly updated range of Gemma hatchery diets. The new range now includes Gemma Wean and Gemma Diamond. These diets are ideal for the larval rearing of species such as yellowtail kingfish, barramundi, mulloway, cobia and Murray cod.

GEMMA WEAN is designed as a high end co-feed and weaning diet aimed at optimizing the Artemia feeding phase. It is available in 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3mm sizes and is the ideal diet to follow on from rotifers and co-feed with minimal Artemia. With good weaning practices the number of Artemia used can be optimized.

GEMMA DIAMOND replaces the old Gemma PG and is a post-weaning diet available in 0.5, 0.8, 1.0, 1.2 and 1.5 mm sizes. It is designed to be fed following Gemma Wean and contains a proprietary blend of essential oils, vitamins and immune enhancing agents all of which improve larval health and performance.

Both Gemma Wean and Gemma Diamond are produced on a highly specialised line that produces micro extruded pellets at low temperatures and pressures. The new diets utilse new ingredients, have a tighter distribution of pellet sizes within each size class, have increased water stability and slower sink speeds, all of which combine to improve the health, growth, FCR and survival of larvae during and after weaning.
