Today we see exciting expansion in the aquaculture industry with a strong interest in sustainability. The current market, valued at more than $300 billion, is expected to grow at a steady rate to a value of more than $400 billion by 2030. The most prominent growth is in the Asia Pacific, where aquaculture consumption is high, export demand is growing, and government support is increasing. Bionetix^® sees these trends as an exciting opportunity for aqua farming suppliers to ride the wave of aquaculture demand with probiotic solutions that promote productivity and sustainability.

The Aquaculture Market Landscape

Probiotics are the perfect complement to current aquaculture needs because they simultaneously support better productivity and sustainability.

AQUA-FEED^™ is a natural feed additive rich in β-glucans, mannan-oligosaccharides (MOS), beneficial probiotics, and other key vitamins, nutrients, and minerals. It can be added to fish and shrimp food to support overall species’ health.

BCP54^™ can be directly applied to aquaculture pond systems to enhance water clarity, reduce suspended solids, and promote microbial balance. The microbial consortia in BCP54™ accelerate the biodegradation of organic waste—including fecal solids, uneaten feed, and detritus—by enzymatic hydrolysis and nutrient cycling. They also mitigate nutrient loading by converting nitrogenous and phosphatic compounds into biomass, while simultaneously lowering ammonia and hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) concentrations through microbial assimilation and nitrification-denitrification pathways.

Get Probiotics Going in Your Part of the World!

Adding probiotics to fish feed and pond water is a quick and easy investment with big returns. By adding probiotics to the aquaculture management routine, fish  and shrimp farmers have a simple way to help meet market demands while acting sustainability and responsibly. Contact Bionetix^® to learn more about the possibility of incorporating probiotics into the aquaculture market in your part of the world!

The WWETT convention is a great place to get immersed in the world of wastewater and environmental services, as our Bionetix^® team learned firsthand during the February 18th-20th convention in Indianapolis. With new and familiar faces coming from as far as Mexico, Peru, Colombia, Chile, and the Netherlands, it was an exciting time to explore future possibilities for international collaboration and see the new BIO-BOOM^™ TAB take the spotlight!

While companies are still waking up to the exciting possibilities of friendlier, more sustainable biological treatments such as those in the BIO-BOOM_™ product line, our new tablet version, released in December, was of special interest to companies that service portable toilets in winter environments. Portable restroom operators may have to wait up to five minutes for one portable toilet treatment pouch to dissolve in low temperatures, a loss of time that can add up to serious delays on the treatment route. While liquid treatments are a faster alternative, their downside is the lack of portion control, which may lead to excessive use and unnecessary waste. In contrast, our Bionetix^® team showed how BIO-BOOM^™ TAB, the only tablet of its kind, was able to dissolve in ice water at the booth. This fast dissolving technology also gives users the benefits of precise and controlled dosing, enabling service companies to increase efficiency on their routes.

The eager reception of the BIO-BOOM^™ TAB underscores the leadership and growing traction of Bionetix^® as an innovative manufacturer of biological treatments, and we anticipate seeing potential future collaborations unfold from the connections made at WWETT 2025. Together, we look forward to making the job safer and easier for portable toilet service companies! Contact us to learn more about this and other biological treatments presented at WWETT.
