Vegetable Flakes with Spirulina 100g

Nutritious vegetable-based flakes enriched with spirulina algae, plankton, spinach, garlic, and lecithin - a great plant-heavy supplement for isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches.

While many invert foods focus on protein, it's just as important to offer your colony plant-based nutrition. These flakes provide exactly that, with a rich vegetable formula that includes spirulina and a solid 40% crude protein content to keep things balanced.

Why These Flakes?

• Spirulina algae - a protein-rich blue-green alga with vitamins and minerals of its own
• 40% crude protein - a well-balanced level that complements higher-protein foods in a varied diet
• Spinach & garlic provide additional plant-based vitamins and nutrients
• Plankton and lecithin are in the recipe too
• Multi-vitamin complex - vitamins A, D3, E, and C
• Easy to crumble and scatter, and softens by itself in a damp enclosure

How to Use

Crumble a small pinch onto the substrate or a small dish and leave the flakes dry: they take up moisture from the enclosure, and misting them first only makes them clump and mould sooner. Remove any uneaten food after a couple of days. A great addition to a varied diet alongside leaf litter, pond sticks, protein sources, and fresh vegetables.

Our guide to feeding isopods spirulina covers what the spirulina in these flakes brings to a colony and how sparingly to offer it.

These plant-heavy flakes are a useful way to balance the protein-rich foods in your colony's diet - ideal for isopods, millipedes, and cockroaches. Browse our full accessories collection for the other components of a varied invert diet.

For Fish

Plant-heavy flakes like these suit fish that graze, mollies and platies among them, as part of a mixed diet with a general flake. Feed a pinch they clear in a couple of minutes. Snails in the same tank pick up the flakes that sink, and our guide to what aquarium snails eat covers the rest of their diet.
