Fish like to have a varied diet.

Poorly balanced nutrition can eventually lead to deficiencies, diseases and fatty degeneration of the organs. Provide the occupants of your aquarium with a varied diet in the form of live food. By catching yourself or buying live food, you run the risk of introducing unwanted bacteria and parasites into the aquarium.

Making your own live food offers many benefits:

• pest-free
• healthy, fiber-rich food
• no longer need to go running around the ponds with the landing net
• stimulates the hunting instinct of fish
• promotes reproduction
• simple, fast and practical
• cheaper than frozen food.

Pleasure of making your own live food:

• add salt to water
• lay brine shrimp eggs (cysts) in salt water
• wait until the small crustaceans (nauplia) are hatched
• pass the nauplii through a sieve
• ready for feeding.

To make a culture of brine shrimp eggs, you have to put these eggs in salt water. JBL ArtemioSal salt has been specially developed for the production of this salt water. Small Artemia crustaceans hatch in this water and are then the perfect live food to give to your aquarium fish. The micro-algae contained in the salty mixture are used to feed the small newborn crustaceans.
