Insect Granules 100g

Premium, high-protein granules built around mealworm meal and herring meal - an excellent supplementary protein source for isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches.

At 44% crude protein in small 1mm granules, a light scattering goes a long way. Mealworm meal is the first ingredient, with herring meal behind it, and inverts take the granules readily.

Why These Granules?

• 44% crude protein, with 2% crude fat and 6.5% crude fibre
• Mealworm & herring meal based - insect meal first, fish meal second
• Kelp & brewer's yeast round out the recipe
• Small 1mm granule size - easy to scatter and readily eaten by inverts of all sizes

How to Use

Scatter a small amount into your enclosure and leave it dry. The granules take up moisture and soften on their own, and wetting them first only makes them mould sooner. Remove any uneaten food after a couple of days. Best used as part of a varied diet alongside leaf litter, vegetables, and other food sources.

Our article on feeding insects and protein to your isopods covers where meal-based insect foods like this sit in the protein rotation and how often each species wants them.

Ideal for isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches as a protein extra. Browse our full accessories collection for leaf litter, calcium sources, and the other components of a varied invert diet.

For Fish

Small fish take these too. At 1mm they suit tropical community fish and young fish, and insects make up a large part of what many small fish eat in the wild. Feed what they clear in a couple of minutes. They suit a betta too, and our guide to what betta fish eat shows where they fit. On land, vampire crabs take them as well, and our guide to what vampire crabs eat explains how. The rest of our fish, turtle and reptile foods are on foods for reptiles, turtles and fish.
