Background information
Soybeans are recognized as a high-quality protein. These legumes are a source of cell protection micronutrients such as folic acid and selenium, as well as vital amino acids, vitamins, and polyunsaturated fatty acids. They also contain key minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc. Their dietary fibers help improve digestion.
Shrimp larvae in particular will benefit from the unicellular green algae of the type Chlorella and Nannochloropsis, due to their tiny size of only a few micrometers. The adult crustaceans will also eat them, as they belong to their natural diet. These micro-algae contain all vital amino acids, minerals, trace elements, vitamins, many unsaturated fatty acids, polysaccharides and color-boosting pigments.
