Description

  • Elevate your aquatic ecosystem with our premium live Rotifers (Brachionus plicatilis). These microscopic invertebrates act as “nutritional transporters,” delivering critical lipids and amino acids directly to your most delicate tank inhabitants.
  • Key Benefits:
    • Ideal Starter Food: The perfect size for small-mouthed fry (like clownfish and gobies) that are too small for baby brine shrimp.
    • Coral Growth & Color: Provides nitrogen, phosphorus, and HUFAs (Highly Unsaturated Fatty Acids) essential for SPS/LPS tissue repair and pigment.
    • Stimulates Natural Hunting: Their constant swimming motion triggers the predatory instincts of fish larvae, increasing survival rates.
    • Improves Water Quality: Unlike dry foods, live rotifers stay suspended in the water column, reducing waste and toxic ammonia build-up.
  • Feeding Instructions:
    • For Reef Tanks: Broadcast feed 1–3 times weekly by adding enough to lightly cloud the water.
    • For Breeding Systems: Maintain a constant density for larvae, ideally enriching with phytoplankton before use for maximum nutrition.
