Algae and biofilm-eating armored catfish have specialized in a unique way of feeding with their sucker mouth: Sucker catfish rasp off biofilm-rich material such as fallen wood and dead plant parts, thus ingesting algae and biofilms.
Providing a species-appropriate diet for suckermouth catfish in an aquarium is difficult – the surface area for biofilms and algae growth is limited, and many catfish pellets contain only a small amount of algae and are otherwise made up of cheap fillers. With NatureHolic’s all-natural CatfishPlates, you can feed your suckermouth catfish a species-appropriate diet that meets their nutritional needs.
Attention: NatureHolic CatfishPlates are not compressed algae fragments, but solid, hand-harvested, and gently dried macroalgae. Concentrated 100% algae power for your algae-eating catfish!
NatureHolic CatfishPlates provide essential nutrients and building blocks such as calcium and magnesium, as well as valuable fiber . Furthermore, NH CatfishPlates contain natural vitamins A, B, and C. The high content of natural iodine is also particularly noteworthy , as it plays a crucial role in the breeding success and mating readiness of catfish!
NatureHolic Catfish Plates are an ideal breeding food: The highly digestible proteins contained in NH Catfish Plates ensure a good growth rate and are therefore advantageous when breeding L-number catfish. This special feed also provides all the necessary micronutrients in terms of trace elements , which play an important role in the vitality, well-being, and health of ornamental fish in the aquarium.
The visible mineral crust on our algae plates is a sign of quality . We recommend always having a NatureHolic CatfishPlate in your aquarium; it does not negatively affect water quality. CatfishPlates are also ideal as holiday food because they have minimal impact on the water .
Incidentally : Other algae eaters , such as the Mbuna from Lake Malawi and various livebearers from Guppy to Platy to Molly, also like to nibble on algae and can benefit from the NatureHolic Catfish Plates.
