WATER FLEA - Daphnia
Great food for all types of small and medium-sized fish.
Water fleas are one of the oldest foods for aquarium fish. Before the mass production of food in flakes and briquettes, and decades before frozen food, catching or growing water fleas was a basic task for every aquarist.
Compared to other types of food, water fleas are poorer in protein and rich in fiber (chitin from the shell is especially important). Feeding on water fleas has so many positive effects:
- high fiber content for better digestion = 42.3%
- affects the immune system of fish
- due to their size, water fleas are excellent food for smaller fish such as live-bearing fish (eg guppies), tetras (eg neon lights), dwarf perch (eg apistograms, peacocks), armored catfish, as well as larger fish (eg discus). ).
