How It Works
With us, you get meaningful data visuals and results
Map Metabolic Pathways
By understanding how microbes use nutrients for growth, energy, we can track who is carrying out what important chemical process. This results in the better use of feed, faster growth, and less leftover waste. Knowing these metabolic processes also assists in improving immune systems. This ultimately leads to stronger and more robust stock.
Find Main Driver of Disease
Whether it's a harmful microorganism, something that stresses the environment, or a lack of proper nutrients, understanding the main reason helps create customized plans. These plans could involve better protection methods, improved management of water quality, vaccination schedules, or changes to the diet. This specific strategy doesn't just lower mortality, it also boosts their overall growth.
Optimise Protocols
One benefit of having optimized protocols in aquaculture is cost savings. When aquaculture operations implement efficient and well-optimized protocols, it leads to improved resource management, reduced wastage, and increased productivity. This translates to lower production costs and higher yields, allowing aquaculture businesses to save money on inputs, energy consumption, and overall operational expenses. By streamlining processes and maximizing output, optimized protocols contribute to a more economically sustainable and profitable aquaculture industry.
Track The Rise of Pathogens
Understanding the likelihood of a pathogen event in advance enables proactive measures. Preemptive actions like enhancing biosecurity, implementing surveillance, and developing targeted disease management strategies can be taken. This helps minimize the impact of the event and reduce economic losses.
Popular Optimisation Services
Inputs & Probiotics
Are your probiotic working? Our service monitors your inputs briefly, allowing you to identify underperforming products and adjust protocols for maximum returns.
Feed
Minimize feed wastage and optimize feed amounts based on Feed Conversion Ratio (FCR) and microbiome impacts from incorrect feeding protocols.
Disinfection
Are you using ozone, UV, or chlorine? These DNA scramblers can harm the microbiome by eliminating beneficial bacteria. We help you enhance water health with optimize protocols.
FAQ
AquaGENius results is sent to you via our Luminis app. With metagenomics, you will get a detailed Microbiome Intelligence report, plus the raw data and very detailed reporting down the species level. With linked samples collected with our equipment, we are able to give even more detailed information using multi-variate statistics and our proprietary workflows of so that we can understand how the microbiome is behaving over time.
We send detailed information on all types of algae, including blue green algae (single celled algae) yeasts, EHP, and molds and the roles they play in contributing to the overall health of your system.
You'll receive a very detailed report that tells you what specific parameter is contributing to disease and dysbiosis in your tanks or ponds, including healthy vs unhealthy baselines and microbial profiles. All questions will be addressed in a comprehensive follow up call. After we establish your baseline, we will then provide ongoing quick, easy, and affordable testing options that will keep your system in balance throughout grow out and pick up signs of potential disease well before the disease event occurs.
