Features and benefits

Minerals such as magnesium help the daily processes of basal metabolism in aquatic organisms, strengthen and contribute to the development of muscles and tissues.

Potassium and magnesium concentrations are constantly decreasing due to the absorption of the two elements by cation exchange sites such as the bottom soil and by the fixation of potassium within the intermediate layers of clays. The rain dilutes the ionic concentrations and the ions are lost in the exchange water. Ponds should generally be treated two to three times during a growth period of 100 to 160 days.

Magnesium chloride is fully ionized through a wide range of pH variation, from a low pH of 2 to 3, found in the hepatopancreas of shrimp, to the physiological pH of 7.4 slightly alkaline, which is found in body fluids such as hemolymph.

It is common to apply mineral salts such as magnesium chloride in low-salinity shrimp ponds, as they affect the survival and daily growth of the shrimp. Some authors recommend the Ca: Mg: K ratio (1: 4: 1) for salinities less than 5 parts per thousand, for densities of up to 10 / m2.

Application

Use 2ppm of Magnesium Chloride in the larval tanks and / or raceways.

Mix 12 to 20 grams / kilo of feed in shrimp farms.

Storage

Once the bag is opened and the recommended dose is used, it must be stored using good manufacturing practices, tightly closing the container, and stored in a dry place, as well as protected from sunlight, using a pallet and labeling to keep out of contamination by contact with other elements of the winery.
