AlgaeFlakes

NatureHolic AlgaeFlakes are algae flakes made from the red algae Palmaria palmata, also known as dulse. These high-quality algae flakes perfectly meet the nutritional needs of algae-eating fish , shrimp , crayfish , crabs , and aquarium snails in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums. NatureHolic AlgaeFlakes are ideal for all suckermouth catfish , Mbuna cichlids , and are also excellent for guppies , mollies , and other algae-eating ornamental fish in freshwater aquariums, as well as tangs, damselfish, and parrotfish in saltwater aquariums – and many other ornamental fish!

AlgaeFlakes are ideal for feeding wild-caught snails such as horned nerites, limpets, or zebra nerites, which need proper nutrition after their stressful transport but typically only eat biofilm and algae-based foods, not artificial ones. NatureHolic AlgaeFlakes, made from dulse (Palmaria palmata), provide the snails with optimal nutrition and are packed with essential nutrients.

The dulseed Palmaria palmata is a traditional food source in its native habitat. In the form of NatureHolic AlgaeFlakes, it also provides our aquarium animals with high-quality, easily digestible protein and important fiber. Furthermore, this red algae contains essential nutrients such as calcium, potassium, iron, iodine, and important trace elements, as well as natural carotene and vitamins B6, B12, and vitamin C. 

The highly digestible proteins present in the natural marine algae Palmaria palmata can ensure a good growth rate for all ornamental fish and invertebrates in the aquarium.

Shrimp and snails need calcium as a building block for their exoskeletons and shells, respectively. Fish also benefit from calcium as a building block for their bones. Potassium is important for the smooth functioning of the metabolism of all aquarium animals, as is iron, which is essential for blood formation in hemoglobin-producing aquarium animals such as ramshorn snails and, of course, fish. Iodine greatly aids shrimp and other crustaceans during molting because they require this trace element to produce their molting hormone. 

Vitamins also play an important role in the metabolism of shrimp, crayfish, snails, and ornamental fish in aquariums: In particular, vitamin C is responsible for smooth molting in crustaceans. It also plays an important role as an antioxidant.
