Microencapsulation is very helpful for relations to fish food. Being able to preserve nutrients will allow for the food to be used later after storage. Being able to microencapsulate food and using it during the early larval stages can provide essential nutrients in a controlled method early on and be useful until metamorphosis can happen. Raw fish material can also be used at later times when microencapsulated because it will be preserved and then can be stored until the time it is needed.
