Fascinating creatures

Food for aquatic amphibiansTropical is offering a special high-protein food in the form of sinking sticks for axolotls, the Iberian Ribbed newt, African clawed frogs and other aquatic amphibians, who feed on animal material. The variety of ingredients of animal origin, including fish, molluscs and crustaceans, forms a source of high-quality, easily assimilable protein. Thanks to the optimally balanced composition of vitamins and trace elements, regular feeding with axolotl sticks ensures proper growth and development in amphibians, while the addition of astaxanthin and pepper extract intensifies their colouring. The food is also enriched with natural immune sti­mulator beta-glucan, which improves the immune system of amphibians, facilitating recovery processes in amphibians that have been bitten by other tank inhabi­tants.www.tropical.plAutomatic feedingEheim's Turtle Feeder is a compact automatic feeder with a food chamber for gammarus, shrimp, food sticks and granulates.
