M+F co-cultivates microalgae and fish fry, allowing fish fry farms to produce their feed to alleviate the problem of high microalgae feed costs. Microalgae absorb organic matter from the water to help maintain water quality balance and promote healthy growth of fish fry. The collection of microalgae is seamlessly integrated into daily water exchange operations, and lighting is used to regulate the growth rate of the microalgae. Synchronizing the growth of microalgae with the transfer of fry optimizes operational efficiency.
