Add 12 oz of "easy-peel" shell-on Giant (U6-8) Black Tiger Shrimp to you next Seatopia Box

These giant restorative mangrove aquaculture farmed XXXL Black Tiger Shrimp make for a delicious center of the plate guaranteed crowd pleaser. Named for its distinctive striped appearance when cooked, our BAP Certified Black Tiger Shrimp, are sourced from a collective of family-run farms in the sustainably managed mangrove forests of southern Vietnam. No chemicals or antibiotics are ever used, and the shrimp feed naturally from their surrounding habitat, just as wild shrimp do. These slower-growing black tiger shrimp taste sweeter and have a snappier bite than any other shrimp.

Zero Input Aquaculture: This model of extensive farmed (the opposite of intensive farming) mangrove aquaculture involves the cultivation of the shrimp in ponds of roughly 3-8 hectares which are partially covered in mangroves and are naturally topped-up every two weeks after the harvesting process. The mangrove ponds are stocked with tiger prawn post-larvae (baby stage) sourced from a local hatchery. Stocked at low densities, the young prawns grow to market size without the need for feeding, as the mangroves themselves help to provide natural food, including algae and invertebrates. Every two weeks (at the time of the full and new moons) much of the water is released at low tide, allowing a proportion of the shrimp to be harvested. The first harvest takes place 3 lunar months after the post-larval stage babies are stocked into the pond.

With no feed inputs or related costs, small-scale farmers don’t need to extend themselves to obtain loans to purchase feed, which can represent between 50 and 70 percent of an aquaculture operation’s overall costs.

This unique shrimp aquaculture cooperative provides Vietnamese farmers with an improved livelihood, while also restoring mangrove ecosystems in Southern Vietnam's Ca Mau Province. With this innovative approach, both shrimp farming and mangrove restoration can happen together, providing valuable services to the environment and their community. Purchasing this product helps maintain healthy ecosystems by supporting artisan regenerative aquaculture-based food production, and delivers the highest quality seafood for your enjoyment.

Through our partnership with Ocean Wise we are planting Kelp for every Seatopia order. Regenerating kelp forest provides habitats for a wide range of marine species, from fish and shellfish to seals and sea otters. Kelp forests also help to sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, reducing the impact of ocean acidification and climate change. Learn more!

In addition to planting kelp with every order via OceanWise, with every Seatopia order we are also support cutting-edge companies that remove carbon from the air. Leveraging insights fromCarbon-direct.com, for every order we receive, a formula based on the box weight, dimensions and shipping distance is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on those estimates, a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies that have been vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct. Those companies use that money to remove however much carbon our shipments created. Learn more!
