The Spotted Wolffish
Anarhichas Minor (Olafsen,1772).
The Spotted Wolffish is calm, social and is perfect for breeding in closed facilities. Through optimization of the environment and feed, we ensure high fish welfare, minimal environmental footprint and a consistent, unique quality. This guarantees a white meat with fantastic structure and mild taste.
The Spotted Wolffish is very rich in protein and contains a lot of vitamin D which strengthens and maintains the skeleton. It also contains B12, which contributes to the production of red blood cells. This makes it an excellent alternative to meat. If you take into consideration that the fish is relatively lean (8.6% fat), has a high proportion of the important Omega-3 fatty acids, and almost no carbohydrates, the Spotted Wolffish is perhaps the finest fish the aquaculture has to offer.
Lifecycle
Broodstock
7- 25 kg
The worlds only commercialized broodstock of Spotted Wolffish.
Each female will annualy produce 7500- 25000 grains of roe. Clean, cold Arctic seawater is essential for the fecundity.
Hatchery
950 day- degrees
Large roes and long hatching period.
Low sea water temperatures are imperative for the maturing of the roe.
Startfeeding Day 0
20 mg- 8 g
Large and fully matured larva hatch 150 days after fertilization.
Healthy environment and specialized nourishment…
4- 11 months Fry
8- 150 g
The fry are moved to bigger units and enters a fase with healthy growth and distinctly low mortality.
Ongrowth 11- 36 months
150- 4500 g
The fish are sorted and moved into bigger units gradually.
Dedicated employees and a continuous focus on environment and fish health, let´s us bring the Spotted Wolffish through the cycle sustainably.
Why should you eat spotted wolffish?
The Spotted Wolffish is a delicate fish that is rich with:
Protein, which builds and maintains all the cells in the body.
Vitamin D, which is needed to get the right calcium balance in the body and helps maintain and strengthen the skeleton.
Vitamin B12, which is important for the body to form new cells, including red blood cells, and which can help prevent anemia.
Selenium, an important contributing substance in an enzyme that fights harmful chemical processes in the body.
Iodine, which regulates the body's metabolism, and is necessary for normal growth and development of the nervous system.
