Re: White Shrimp Production in Bonaire

 

Dear Jon:

This will inform you of our positive results in field test trials, using
Alken Clear-Flo® 1000 at our
production facilities in Bonaire, S. A. We seed and qrow out White Shrimp
in 10 hectare ponds and are pleased to announce that your products have
successfully reduced organic nutrients and algal bloom. Sampling in
the treated ponds indicates a larger, healthier crop compared to the untreated
control pond. I might note that water pollution in Bonaire Shrimp Farming
is an important factor in production, there. Due to high temperatures reached
in Bonaire, it is necessary to maintain oxygenation at the saturation point.
Alken Clear-Flo® 1000 and Alken Clear-Flo® 1100 nitrifier, in combination,
offer an excellent option to reducing organic wastes and ammonias. 

 

I would suggest that this product would be ideal throughout South America
and the Caribbean, as well as in other areas where shrimp production is
a major industry. The long term savings in producing a healthier, larger
harvest should more than offset cost. 

 

Sincerely yours,



Robert J. Valenti, Ph. D.
