AQUI-S New Zealand Ltd.
AQUI-S is an aquatic anaesthetic that has been developed to give flexibility and control in animal husbandry, transporting and harvesting operations. The ingredients are approved for use in foods and AQUI-S is safe for use in food fish. Fish that are harvested using AQUI-S have improved flesh quality, greater yield and longer shelf lives. The use of AQUI-S during the transportation of live fish and during health management practices lowers stress and reduces mortalities.
