Pond Sticks Mix 100g

A high-quality blend of ultralight floating sticks made from wheat, soya, wheat germ, spirulina, and paprika - packed with protein, vitamins, and minerals that isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches absolutely love.

Pond sticks are a staple food in the invert hobby, and for good reason. They're easy to break up and scatter across your enclosure, absorb moisture quickly to create a soft texture your inverts can readily feed on, and they won't mould as fast as fresh foods.

Why These Sticks?

• 18% protein, alongside the plant matter
• Spirulina & paprika provide extra nutrients
• Wheat germ alongside the wheat and soya
• Contains essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements
• Ultralight formula breaks down and softens quickly in a damp enclosure
• A varied mix of stick types for a more balanced diet

How to Use

Simply scatter a few sticks into your enclosure and leave them dry. They take up moisture on their own, and misting them first only makes them mould sooner. Replace any uneaten food after a couple of days to keep things fresh. Great as a regular part of a varied diet alongside leaf litter, vegetables, and other protein sources.

Pond sticks are a versatile protein source that works across the hobby - ideal for isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches alike. Browse our full accessories collection for leaf litter, calcium sources, and the other components of a varied invert diet.

For Pond Fish

Floating pond sticks are a standard food for goldfish and koi, and that is where these came from. Feed what the fish clear in a few minutes, and less as the water cools; our guide to what goldfish eat covers feeding a pond by water temperature. More pond and aquarium foods are on foods for reptiles, turtles and fish.

Size

100g of sticks. Ultralight sticks take up more room than they weigh, so a pack this size runs to a lot of feeds once you break them small.
