Info:
Water fleas in the broader sense is a colloquial name for a number of small crustaceans from various families and genera (Daphnia, Bosmina, Cyclops, Simocephalus and others) of crustaceans belonging to the freshwater zooplankton. The name refers to the locomotion of the animals in the water. By intermittently rowing with their antennae, the impression of a flea-like hopping is created.

The species Daphnia pulex is referred to as a water flea in the narrower sense, and the species Daphnia magna is referred to as a giant water flea; the latter, especially the form Daphnia magna straus, is used for water quality tests.

Water fleas reproduce mostly asexually, in this case by parthenogenesis. This means that the female adult (adult) animals produce eggs whose genetic material is an identical copy of the mother's genetic material; one could also speak of cloning. Male eggs are formed in stressful situations, such as severe temperature changes, food or oxygen shortages, the presence of toxic substances, or a large density of predators. The resulting males reproduce sexually with the females, and recombination of genetic material occurs, resulting in more diversity, which has advantages for the survival of the species.

Water fleas are filter feeders that feed mainly on algae and are a high fiber food.

.

Even with the greatest care, it may happen that food animals by temperature fluctuations or incalculable events, die. For this we assume no liability.

Ruto Krill Fine Flat Pack
Ruto Krill Fine Flat Pack Food suitable for: - Freshwater fish - Saltwater fish - Turtles - (especially for large cichlids) Info: Krill is the name given to a whole group of small creatures that are caught in the cold, nutrient-rich areas of the oceans. The largest proportion are crustaceans of various sizes. Krill is a Norwegian word meaning whale food. In a narrower sense, krill refers to euphausids, which are small crustaceans that are part of the plankton (zooplankton) and belong to the shrimp-like crustaceans of the order Euphausiacea. The best known species is the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba), as well as Euphausia pacifica. Krill form huge swarms. The biomass is estimated at 100 - 800 million tonnes, making E. superba probably the most successful animal species in the world (world fishery yield approx. 100 million tonnes per year for comparison). It forms the basis of the Antarctic ecosystem and is the main food of many whales, seals, ice fish, squid, penguins, albatrosses and other birds. Krill grow up to six centimetres long, weigh two grams and probably live for up to six years. The "stomach" shimmers green through the transparent skin, indicating that E. superba feeds mainly on phytoplankton, especially diatoms, which it filters out of the water with its catch basket. It converts the primary production directly into a relatively large animal. Krill can also harvest algae from the underside of the pack ice. The total catch of E. superba is around 90,000 tonnes per year. Krill are also known as luminous shrimps or luminous crabs, as they have luminous organs on their blue eyes and body that emit a yellow-green light (bioluminescence).
