Aquarium fish feed is plant or animal material intended for consumption by pet fish kept in aquariums or ponds. Fish foods normally contain macronutrients, trace elements, and vitamins necessary to keep captive fish in good health. Approximately 80% of fishkeeping hobbyists feed their fish exclusively prepared foods that most commonly are produced in flake, pellet, or tablet form. Pelleted forms, some of which sink rapidly, are often used for larger fish or bottom-feeding species such as loaches or catfish. Some fish foods also contain additives such as sex hormones or beta carotene to artificially enhance the color of ornamental fish.
1. Omega One Garlic Marine Pellets, Sinking
Omega One is unlike any other fish foods on the market. There is no fishmeal in our foods. Instead, we use fresh Alaskan seafood such as salmon, herring, and shrimp for our protein sources. These ingredients, rich in natural fats and proteins, are purchased direct from sustainable Alaskan fisheries.
- OLOR-BOOSTING NUTRITION: Marine Pellets contain hand-harvested ocean kelp and spirulina and are rich in Omega 3 fatty acids to support delicate immune systems of saltwater fish. Natural beta carotenes in salmon provide excellent color enhancement
- SUPERIOR QUALITY: Made without meals or pre-processed proteins
- KEEP A CLEANER TANK: Our Sinking Garlic Marine Pellets are naturally insoluble, which reduces water pollution, and they have significantly less starch, which reduces fish waste
- INSTRUCTIONS: Feed 1-3 times daily, using only as much food as fish can consume in two minutes
- GUARANTEED ANALYSIS: Min Crude Protein 39%/ Min Crude Fat 11% / Max Crude Fiber 4% / Max Moisture 8.5% / Max Ash 8%
