Live Food

 

Live Rotifers   

Used to feed very small larvae such as Clown Fish, Neon Gobies, and a host of others.

Besides being used extensively for breeding, they are used very often for reef maintainance SPS Coral, Clams and other filter feeders love to "eat" rotifers as they are small enough to succumb quickly to coral stings and small enough to be easily trapped by zooplankton feeders. They are easily enriched with selcon or phytoplankton and easily transfer these nutrients to whatever may eventually eat them. The best thing is, they are feed and forget foods. They'll survive for a time in saltwater until eaten or filtered out by your mechanical filter.

Almost any marine aquarium will benefit from the addition of rotifers, Their size and excellent nutritional value (50% to 65% protein) make them the perfect live food for all (freshwater and marine) fry, anemones, sponges etc.
