San Francisco Bay Brand Freeze-Dried Plankton 2.84-Ounces (80 Grams) Jar

Plankton has high levels of yellow, orange, and red pigments that enhance fishes’ color. It provides an abundance of proteins and lipids, making it an ideal food supplement for smaller carnivorous fish. San Francisco Bay Brand Freeze-Dried Plankton (Euphausia pacifica) is perfect for feeding freshwater and saltwater fish and invertebrates, in addition to aquatic turtles. Because plankton contains essential fatty acids and is high in protein, it is a wonderful conditioning food for breeding fish. Fish easily digest it, benefitting water quality, allowing you to enjoy your aquarium.

Our Plankton contains high levels of marine-derived proteins and polyunsaturated Omega-3 fatty acids, which is why it is a wonderful conditioning food for breeding fish. Rich in carotenoids such as astaxanthin, a potent natural antioxidant, and some of the pigments responsible for the vibrant colors of aquarium fish, it’ll enhance your fishes’ coloration.

Freeze-drying is a process where the product is set on shelves in a drying chamber and frozen. Once frozen, the air is removed from the chamber by a vacuum pump, and the shelves are heated. As the shelves warm, the ice sublimates (becomes gas without a liquid phase) out of the product and collects on condensers; this removes the water from the product, so it maintains its structural integrity and flavor. This process makes storage convenient and extends shelf life. The addition of water can quickly and easily rehydrate the original product.

Freeze-dried fish foods will also be fed whole or crumbled between your fingers. They are able to be used to take in liquid vitamins, supplements, or medications for simple administration. Additionally, they provide essential nutrients that help take care of high energy levels, health, and wellness. Fish digest them easily, benefitting water quality, allowing you to enjoy your aquarium.
