NatureHolic - Mainfeed Shrimp Food - 30g

The soft Mainfeed Softpads from NatureHolic were designed for daily feeding. They contain all the nutrients that shrimp need for shell formation, egg production, and growth. During production, we prioritize a gentle and environmentally friendly cold-press process, which largely preserves the vitamins and other valuable ingredients. As Charles Darwin once said, "Everything that is against nature has no permanent existence."

We deliberately avoid the use of fishmeal. Instead, we use insects as protein sources. In addition to protein, insects also provide chitin, cholesterol, and the important molting hormone ecdysone, which directly benefits shrimp in shell formation and molting.

Valuable spirulina, moringa leaves, and iodine-rich kelp contribute vital substances such as vitamins, provitamins, trace elements, valuable plant protein, and phytochemicals. As natural sources of carotenoids and especially astaxanthin, spirulina, moringa, and salmon oil can promote intense coloration and more vital animals. Especially the blue-green algae spirulina (Arthrospira platensis), alongside moringa leaves, has proven its worth many times over in shrimp breeding; its positive effects on shrimp have been well-researched and repeatedly confirmed scientifically. Spirulina is also an important source of valuable plant protein. In addition to valuable natural astaxanthin, salmon oil also contains essential unsaturated omega-3 fatty acids, which shrimp can metabolize particularly well.

Digested grains serve as the main energy source. Gently dried yeasts contribute beta-glucan and mannan-oligosaccharide as immune boosters, as well as nucleotides and lecithins - as a lubricant for a variety of energetic processes.

To specifically prevent deficiency symptoms, we have incorporated our vitamin mix: Vitamin D3 for the calcium metabolism of shrimp as important support during molting, Vitamin A for the development of the subcutaneous tissue and eggs, to support the immune system and especially as an antioxidant to protect against reactive molecules and bacteria, and Vitamin C, which is also an important antioxidant and is also needed for smooth molting.

Our proven mineral mix provides iron (Fe), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn), which are needed by shrimp as trace elements for the formation of a variety of important enzymes and can thus ensure smooth molting. In addition, trace elements are necessary for the formation of various hormones such as the growth hormone ecdysone and for protein production, and can thus support shrimp in normal growth.

Feeding recommendation:
Feed 1-2 times a day as much as the animals consume within a few minutes. Feed sparingly, usually one 5 mm pad is sufficient for 15-25 shrimp.
Shelf life: 2 years
Store in a cool and dry place, no refrigeration necessary.
Not for human consumption! Keep away from children!
