Krill (Euphausia pacifica) is similar nutritionally to its cousin, Euphausia superba, but is about one-third the size, approximately .25 to .5 inches in length. Krill is a rich source of carotenoids, including astaxanthin, that will bring out the colors in both marine and freshwater fish. Proper handling and drying keeps natural flavourants, proteins and lipids largely intact. Powerful flavourants contained in krill act as an attractant to many species of fish. The use of krill as a feed supplement is especially helpful to develop a feeding response in many fish.

A Message to our Customers:
We would like to inform you in advance of upcoming price adjustments on our products as a result of the tariffs imposed on imported goods. Brine Shrimp Direct is committed to using the highest quality ingredients and raw materials, many of which are sourced globally due to their unique properties and lack of availability within the United States. Tariffs have significantly increased the cost of these essential components. In some cases, they have more than doubled.
Since 2016 we have worked diligently to mitigate the effects of tariffs internally, but to maintain the quality and integrity of our products that you rely on, price adjustments have become necessary.
We understand that this may be unwelcome news, and we want to assure you that we remain committed to providing you with exceptional value and the high-quality products you have come to expect from Brine Shrimp Direct. Your continued support is greatly appreciated as we work to navigate these uncharted waters.
