Aquarium Fish Diets
AQUANUTRO’s granular food
for aquarium fish is an exciting departure
from the conventional flake. Feed
ingredients are homogenised under high pressure to achieve
the required granular structure and then dry and cool by
mild airflow. It is then processed and graded into appropriate
sized granules with a low-density granule that sinks slowly
through the water, optimising its distribution to fish feeding
in the different trophic water areas: top, middle and bottom.
This helps ensure all of the fish have access to the feed
promoting good fish health and reducing the development of
hierarchies, particularly where different sized fish are
kept in a community aquarium. In this way all the fish in
the tank have enough opportunity to feed, which means less
competition and cannibalism. In water the granules get a “gumball” structure
- soft and swollen, while maintaining structure. The feed
is therefore more likely to be eaten by the more sensitive
fish in the aquarium. This excellent palatability reduces
wasted feed that deteriorates water quality.
A major advantage of the manufacturing process is the increased
dietary digestibility of food ingredients: Cooking the carbohydrate
component causes the starch granules to swell, rupture and
gelatinise so that after cooling, the diet has improved binding
attributes. The drying method minimises heat damage to sensitive
nutrients. Gelatinised starch is thus rendered more available,
especially to the carnivorous fish that lacks enzymes to
digest raw starch. This more digestible carbohydrate component
results in an improved overall diet digestibility and better
water quality through lower faecal output.

Aquarium
Fish Breeding Formula
Younger small fish with a high specific growth rate, have
a requirement for a diet with a higher level of balanced
amino
acids than older, larger fish. This is because they are depositing
bundles of protein within their muscle blocks. AQUANUTRO’s
Hi-protein formula reflects these changing dietary needs and
are formulated with a higher level of the ideal amino acid
profile. Use AQUANUTRO’s high protein formula until
fish are large enough to consume maintenance food
pellets

Probiotic
Paste Formula
AQUANUTRO’s FOOD PASTE is a specialist food for fish
suffering from commonly occurring stress-conditions such
as
transport, handling, extreme temperatures, poor water quality,
and disease. It is enriched with a cocktail of beneficial
anaerobic bacteria. The extended use of this product will
help control the potential proliferation of pathogenic bacteria,
and fungal growth commonly occurring after an antibiotic
treatment or during prolonged stress conditions - to boost
the natural ability
of your fish to fight stress and disease.
