This is exactly what DuplaRin Axolotl Snack is designed for. The fine-grained granules sink reliably to the bottom and are therefore particularly suitable for animals that mainly feed on the substrate. At the same time, it retains its shape and water stability so that the food can be placed precisely and does not unnecessarily cloud the water.The balanced recipe combines high-quality animal proteins with essential vitamins and valuable minerals to meet the nutritional needs of these amphibians. The protein base includes herring meal, mealworm meal and insect BSF meal; the mixture is supplemented with salmon oil, wheat germ, brewer's yeast and seaweed (kelp), for example. The result is a staple food that is suitable for everyday use, can support growth and vitality and is designed for clean feeding in the aquarium or aquaterrarium. It is also practical to use: simply dose as required and follow the recommendation to feed only as much as can be consumed in around 30 minutes once or twice a day. This reduces food residues that could otherwise affect the water values. If you are looking for a reliable, sinking granulate as a daily basis, DuplaRin Axolotl Snack is a complete food that is consistently geared towards bottom-oriented amphibians - for controlled, clean feeding and a balanced diet.Zoo Roco tip:It is best to give the granules in portions at 1-2 fixed feeding places.
