These are very appetizing products so conversions can be very small and that are very digestive. This is why they are specially indicated for closed circuit plants where lees and fodder residues that haven’t been consummed are a problem.

Fodders with the shape of flour are our second line of products. They are thought to be mixed with water and fish oil to get semihumid crumbs. They are specially indicated to adapt wild eels to feeding and for semi-intensive production of big eels.

Dibaq has experienced in both of the systems of producting eels food and we keep researching nutritional aspects of this interesting species in order to get diets which can improve productive results.

•  Distribution: Its larvae stages are spread in the North Atlantic Ocean, in the Mediterranean Sea and in the Black Sea. Adults live in those rivers that flow into above seas and, during their way to the place of spawning, in North Atlantic upwelling.
•  Feeding: It is a carnivore and especially voracious while in rivers: it eats small fiches, mollusks, crustaceans and larvae of acuatic insects. When it is sexual mature, it stop eating and goes back to the Sargasso Sea depending on their fat reserves.
•  Fishing: Eel can be fished with lights and big landing nets. Eels are fished with pot vessels, reed and trawl.
•  Breeding: In tanks and ponds.
•  Repro: When they sexual mature (6-12 years old in males and 8-13 years old in females) they left the river at the end of winter or in spring to go to the spawning area (Sargasso Sea). After spawning (at about 1968.5 ft depth), adults die. Larvae start its migration (it takes 2-3 years) being carried by the Current of the Gulf to the European estuaric coasts becoming young eels that go up the rivers and become eels.
