Industry — Aquaculture

The EmerrAqua Range

Bulk probiotic and yeast strain powders, formulated aquafeed probiotic blends, and water-quality/pond-bioremediation products for aquafeed manufacturers, hatcheries and farms, aqua-input distributors and institutional buyers — manufactured under EmerrBio's Coastal Aquaculture Authority (CAA) registration and FSSAI approval, with ISO/GMP-aligned quality systems already in place.

Formats & Applications

Feed Inclusion

Powder or liquid probiotic/yeast formulations for inclusion in extruded or top-dressed aquafeed.

Pond & Tank Dosing

Bioremediation formulations for direct water application in ponds, tanks and RAS systems.

Hatchery Use

Formulations suited to larval-rearing and hatchery water/feed systems, subject to system-specific validation.

The Full Range

Aqua Clear Aqua Boost Aqua Balance Aqua Complete

EmerrAqua Clear

Bacillus licheniformis

WATER QUALITY / BIOREMEDIATION

Ammonia, nitrite & Vibrio control

Mechanism

Aerobic spore-forming bacterium that degrades organic waste and competes with pathogenic Vibrio for resources in pond/tank water; associated with lower ammonia and nitrite nitrogen accumulation and a more favourable water and gut microbial community.

Application / Format

Direct pond/tank water dosing for bioremediation, or supplied as a bulk powder for water-treatment product formulation; also compatible with feed-based delivery.

Target Use

Most directly evidenced in Pacific white shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) pond systems; the underlying mechanism is commonly extended to finfish pond/tank systems.

Keeps pond and tank water within safe ammonia/nitrite limits without relying solely on water exchange, while suppressing the Vibrio species responsible for most shrimp disease outbreaks — a water-quality role rather than a feed-additive one.

Research & Evidence (2 findings)

A 60-day trial in a Penaeus vannamei system found treatment kept ammonia/nitrite significantly lower than untreated controls and suppressed pathogenic Vibrio counts (2.56×10⁴ vs 3.60×10⁴ CFU/mL). — Zheng et al., Front Microbiol, 2025
The same trial found shrimp survival significantly improved (91.1% vs 72.2%) with a better feed conversion ratio (0.49 vs 0.85) versus controls. — Zheng et al., Front Microbiol, 2025

Worth knowing: This finding is specific to the strain and system tested; ammonia/nitrite control is also strongly influenced by stocking density, water exchange rate and existing pond microbial load. EmerrBio's own strain has not been independently trialled in this exact system.

EmerrAqua Boost

Saccharomyces cerevisiae

IMMUNOSTIMULANT / GROWTH

Immune stimulation & growth performance

Mechanism

Yeast cell-wall components (beta-glucans, mannan-oligosaccharides) and fermentation metabolites stimulate innate immune responses and improve feed utilisation and growth.

Application / Format

Dried whole-cell biomass or yeast fermentate, top-dressed on feed or included in feed formulation; effect is dose-dependent.

Target Use

Evidenced in marine finfish (sea bream) and widely used across shrimp and finfish aquafeed formulation generally.

One of the most widely used functional feed ingredients in aquaculture globally, valued for immune stimulation and growth performance rather than pathogen suppression — a complementary mechanism to EmerrAqua Clear's water-quality role.

Research & Evidence (2 findings)

Sea bream fed dietary S. cerevisiae showed significantly higher daily weight gain and specific growth rate at 4 g/kg inclusion, alongside increased antioxidant enzyme activity. — Fath El-Bab et al., Life, 2022
The same study found the highest dose upregulated immune-related genes and improved survival on bacterial challenge with Vibrio parahaemolyticus. — Fath El-Bab et al., Life, 2022

Worth knowing: Effects were dose-dependent in the cited study, and the yeast preparation used (whole-cell vs. fermentate vs. cell-wall extract) significantly affects outcomes — EmerrBio's own preparation has not been tested in the cited studies.

EmerrAqua Balance

Lactobacillus plantarum

PROBIOTIC / GUT HEALTH

Gut health & disease resistance

Mechanism

Lactic-acid-producing gut coloniser that competitively excludes pathogens, lowers gut pH, and modulates innate immune gene expression; improves growth and disease resistance when included in feed.

Application / Format

Bulk powder for feed manufacturers, or top-dressed onto finished feed; typically dosed at a defined CFU/kg feed level.

Target Use

Evidenced in Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei); L. plantarum is also widely studied as a fish probiotic.

A well-studied lactic acid bacterium for shrimp and fish gut health, valued for competitive exclusion of pathogens and measurable improvements in growth, immune function and survival under disease challenge.

Research & Evidence (2 findings)

Shrimp fed strain W2 at 1×10¹⁰ CFU/kg showed a significantly higher specific growth rate and feed efficiency, with 7 serological immune indicators up-regulated. — Wei et al., Front Microbiol, 2022
The same strain reduced cumulative mortality by 53.8% versus controls when shrimp were challenged with Vibrio parahaemolyticus. — Wei et al., Front Microbiol, 2022

Worth knowing: Genome screening of strain W2 found predicted virulence-factor genes and resistance to ampicillin and erythromycin, though the study's authors concluded overall risk was low under current assessment frameworks — this kind of strain-level safety screening should be run on EmerrBio's own strain before any safety claim is made.

EmerrAqua Complete

Multi-strain bacteria & yeast consortium

CONSORTIA BLEND

Full-spectrum water, gut & immune support

Mechanism

Layers three complementary modes of action — water conditioning and Vibrio suppression from EmerrAqua Clear, immune stimulation from EmerrAqua Boost, and gut colonisation from EmerrAqua Balance.

Application / Format

Carrier-based powder or liquid, blended to ratio; suited to feed inclusion, water dosing, or both.

Target Use

Broad — same segments as the three component products (shrimp, marine and freshwater finfish systems).

Built for buyers who want breadth — water quality, immune support and gut health — from a single SKU rather than sourcing and blending three actives themselves.

Worth Knowing

This three-part combination has not itself been independently trialled as a blend in the published literature — the evidence cited on each component's own page was generated for that organism alone, not for this consortium.

FAQ

Aquaculture — Frequently Asked Questions

What products are in the EmerrAqua range?

Four: EmerrAqua Clear (water-quality/Vibrio bioremediation, Bacillus licheniformis), Boost (immune & growth support yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae), Balance (gut-health probiotic, Lactobacillus plantarum), and Complete, a multi-strain consortia blend.

Is the EmerrAqua range certified?

Yes — EmerrAqua is manufactured under EmerrBio's Coastal Aquaculture Authority (CAA) registration and FSSAI aquafeed-ingredient approval, with ISO/GMP-aligned quality systems already in place.

What formats are available?

Feed inclusion (powder or liquid, extruded or top-dressed), pond & tank dosing for direct water bioremediation, and hatchery-suited formulations subject to system-specific validation.

Which species has EmerrAqua's evidence base been demonstrated in?

Most directly in Pacific white shrimp (Penaeus/Litopenaeus vannamei) pond systems, plus marine finfish such as sea bream for the immune/growth yeast component — see each product page for strain-specific citations.
