- Mineralate Mg/K - Chelated Trace Minerals Functionalities
- Zinc: Functions as Immune Booster. Essential in several Enzymes. It helps to fight diseases.
- Manganese: Functions as enzyme activator. Manganese is also essential for bone formation, regeneration of red blood cells, carbohydrate metabolism and the reproductive cycle.
- Copper: Boosts immunity and fighting power during disease outbreak.
- Cobalt: An active agent in the synthesis of vitamin B12. Helps in red blood cell formation.
- Iodine: Important in regulating the metabolic rate of all body functions.
- Chromium: Associated with glucose tolerance factor, important in carbohydrate metabolism
Features & Benefits
- Animal Feed & Nutrition Features
- Product Overview
- Magnesium and Potassium are essential nutrients for aquatic plants (Phytoplankton) and animals. Fish and Shrimp can get magnesium and potassium from the water and their food. Ponds with low-alkalinity water usually have low magnesium and potassium concentrations.

A Case for Chelated Minerals in Aquaculture:
- Excessive Use of Agricultural fertilizers can be costly.
- Inorganic sources settles down in bottom with the pond soil, thus reducing their availability to Shrimp and Fish.
- Soluble Chelated Minerals are readily available to Aquatic Plants and Shrimp/Fish.
The Role of Magnesium and Potassium in Aquaculture:
- Low Salinity problems can generally be solved through addition of highly available source of Magnesium and Potassium
- The use of Chelated Magnesium has shown to enhance survival, growth, and osmoregulatory capacity of shrimp in low salinity waters.
- Low Magnesium levels leads to higher respiration rates and reduced survival in Juvenile Shrimp.
- Magnesium and Potassium in fish and shrimp feeds is not enough for plants.
- In most Aqua ponds magnesium and potassium is always deficient unless it is supplemented with highly available Magnesium and Potassium sources.
