As with all living
creatures, your fish require a well balanced diet to ensure that they
receive the correct vitamins and minerals. We stock a number of dried
foods to cater for all commonly kept fish, from Guppies to Tangs. This
includes foods specifically to encourage colouration, spawning, growth
together with vegetable based foods. We also stock a number of liquid
foods designed for corals, clams and other filter feeding marine
invertebrates. Where ever possible, feed your livestock with a variety
of staple dried foods to vary your livestock's diets. You should also
provide your fish with frozen food on a regular basis. A handy tip is to
fit an automatic feeder to your aquarium. In the wild, fish eat little
and often which is difficult to replicate in our home environments. An
automatic feeder enables you to set feeding times during the day when
you may not be available to feed your fish, and also enables you to mix
a number of different dried foods together to provide that well balanced
diet. One final point is to make sure that you only ever feed your
livestock as much as they will consume within a few minutes. It can be
very easy to over feed your livestock, and any uneaten food will lead to
deteriorating water quality which can cause disease outbreaks and
losses. |
