Description
The GroLight is an underwater light solution, that allows farmers to control the maturation of fish throughout the seasons. The product works seamlessly with the rest of the Gro product line, and is produced and tested to withstand some the harshest weather conditions in the world, with little to no maintenance required.
Qualities
Most of GroLight’s qualities stem from the fact that it uses LED lighting technology. LED lights offer many advantages over the older MH (metal halide) lights that have been the primary solution in fish farming until recently. Some of these advantages include longer lifespans, the ability to produce different colour temperatures, and automation capabilities
Maturation
Under normal circumstances, the fish reach maturity during early autumn. The early development causes the fish to lose value and mortality rates to rise. The purpose of GroLight is to control the fish’s perception of the seasons, thereby postponing maturation, enhancing growth, and reducing mortality.
The lights enable the fish farmer to keep the fish in the cage for an extra farming season before slaughter, without risking a loss of value or expiration because of premature ageing of the fish.
