The present disclosure provides a procedure for obtaining an algae-based composition for feeding Tenebrio molitor larvae. The procedure includes receiving algae and separating rock remains and plastic materials from the algae. The procedure also includes washing the algae with fresh water to eliminate traces of sand, small crustaceans, and other unwanted elements, in addition to reducing salinity. The procedure further includes drying the algae for between 2-4 days, grinding the dried algae, and mixing the ground algae with an agri-food additive until a composition is obtained that contains proteins 18-24%, fats: 2-4%, carbohydrates: 50-70%, moisture: 5-20%, and ash: 1-8%.
