About Ocean Nutrition Frozen Mysis with Spirulina & Garlic

Ocean Nutrition Frozen Mysis with Spirulina & Garlic is a nutritious frozen aquarium food made with whole mysis shrimp and enriched with spirulina and garlic. It provides a protein-rich food source for freshwater and marine fish that naturally consume small crustaceans and other meaty foods.

Mysis shrimp offer a natural prey-like texture and are readily accepted by many marine fish, including wrasses, gobies, clownfish, cardinalfish and other carnivorous or omnivorous species. Spirulina adds a plant-based component to the diet, while garlic is included to help encourage feeding in reluctant fish.

The mysis shrimp are flash-frozen to help preserve their condition and nutritional value. This makes the food a useful addition to a varied feeding routine, particularly for fish that prefer frozen foods over dry pellets.

For best results, thaw only the portion you need and feed an amount your fish can consume promptly. Remove uneaten food to help maintain water quality. This food is intended as part of a varied diet rather than the sole food for every species.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which fish can eat this food?

Many marine fish, including clownfish, wrasses, gobies and cardinalfish, can eat mysis. It can also suit freshwater fish that accept small crustaceans.

What do spirulina and garlic do?

Spirulina provides an algae-based dietary component, while garlic is commonly included to improve palatability and encourage feeding. It should not be considered a treatment for parasites or disease.

How do I feed frozen mysis?

Thaw a small portion in a little aquarium water, then feed it promptly. For sensitive systems, avoid adding excessive thaw liquid or uneaten food.

Can I feed it every day?

It can form part of a regular diet, but rotate it with other appropriate foods to provide nutritional variety.

Is it suitable for small fish?

It depends on the size of the mysis and the fish's mouth. Break up or separate the food into smaller particles for smaller fish.

How should I store it?

Keep it frozen according to the packaging instructions, and return the remaining frozen product to the freezer promptly. Never refreeze thawed portions.

Common Mistakes

  • Feeding more than fish can consume.
