Improving Biofilter Health Management with Vikan Settefisk (NO)

🌊🔬 Advancing Aquaculture with Innovative Microbiome Insights! 🔬🌊

At Kytos, we recently had the pleasure of collaborating with VIKAN SETTEFISK Frode Reppe and MoreFish AS on a Master’s degree project aimed at demonstrating how KYTOS technology can be used to asses microbial health in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). This project provided key insights into biofilter health and efficiency—vital for sustainable aquaculture.

Here’s what Anette Voll Bugten, Operational biologist at VIKAN SETTEFISK Frode Reppe, had to say about their experience:

“The sampling protocol and equipment were easy to understand and use. Communication with the Kytos team was seamless, and we really liked the microbiome control platform. The KytoApp was straightforward and gave us valuable insights into biofilter activity and health status—information critical for understanding microbial water quality.”

We’re excited to continue innovating and exploring ways to integrate microbiome data with other aquaculture metrics like feeding, biomass, and water quality to further enhance industry operations.

Thank you to our amazing partners at VIKAN SETTEFISK Frode Reppe and MoreFish AS for this fruitful collaboration!
