Description
"Krill Fine" is a frozen fish food consisting of finely chopped krill, ideal for smaller or more finicky fish like adult Discus, or for use as a base mix for larger species. It is a high-protein, nutrient-rich food that is a natural source of omega-3 fatty acids and astaxanthin, which enhances color. The fine size makes it easy to digest and encourages a feeding response in many fish.

Benefits
The natural carotenoids, particularly astaxanthin, help intensify the red and other colors in fish.
The fine texture is a natural and appealing food source that can trigger an immediate feeding response.
The high protein and essential fatty acids support overall health, energy levels, and proper growth.
Can be used as a staple food or as an additive for larger species in products like spod and stick mixes.
How to use
-
Store the frozen krill in a freezer and only thaw the amount you need for one feeding.
- You can thaw it in a small amount of aquarium water before feeding, or in some cases, feed it while still frozen.
Only feed what your fish can consume within a few minutes to avoid soiling the aquarium.
