Primarily for Freshwater Fish. Brine Shrimp Direct's Brine Shrimp Flake is extraordinarily popular among breeders for many reasons. Our inclusion rate of brine shrimp is based on a more meaningful "dry weight" basis, not the weight of a frozen block of brine shrimp that is, on average, 85% water. Our Brine Shrimp Flake includes a generous amount of - yes - brine shrimp!
The nutritional advantages do not end there. We use de-shelled artemia (Your fish don't need difficult-to-digest shells) to create a diet with complex proteins and important enyzmes that are found in your fish's natural diet and that aid in digestion. To this, we add a high quality marine fish oil to provide your fish with an excellent source of essential fatty acids.
A 2% inclusion rate of spirulina compliments an already great amalgamation of natural sources of carotenoids and other pigments that maintain vibrant colors in your fish. And spirulina is a putative immuno-stimulant that will increase disease resistance in captive fish. A proprietary attractant used in both our Brine Shrimp Flake and Plankton Gold Flake ignites an immediate feeding response in most fish.
Used in commercial hatcheries by professional breeders - an excellent choice for both carnivorous and omnivorous fish. Contains natural paracoccus and carophyll to enhance the natural colors of your fish.
