Planktonic Food for Filter Feeding Marine
Invertebrates
This first of its kind product reproduces the special
biogenic suspended matter found in natural seawater. These aggregates,
collectively called "marine snow" by ocean researchers, are known to
be an important element in the food chain of marine ecosystems.
Marine Snow is a food for tropical and cold water
marine animals that feed on particulate and dissolved organic matter,
phytoplankton and zooplankton.
Ideal food for soft and stony corals, anemones,
hydrozoans, feather duster worms, clams, crinoids (feather stars), sponges,
tunicates (sea squirts), foraminiferans, and other filter feeders. Shrimps,
brittle stars and even fishes will eat Marine Snow aggregates.
Feed at least one capful (5ml) per 20 gallons. Frequent
feeding will not cause build up of excess nutrients. Larger doses can be added
by feeding several times per day, or continuously via a drip-feed system or
peristaltic dosing pump. Do not mix with trace elements or other chemical
supplements in a dosing reservoir.
Refrigerate after opening
Marine Snow is also a suitable source of food for brine
shrimp.
