🌿 Precision Sinking & High-Density Nutrition
Rearing tiny fry requires a food that stays suspended where vulnerable babies can actually reach it. Finfish Pro-Start features an advanced slow-sinking and drifting profile. The micro-granules disperse evenly across the surface and descend at an ultra-slow rate, simulating a cloud of plankton in the water column to trigger immediate feeding instincts.
Manufactured using low-heat stabilization to lock in delicate nutrients, these micro-granules maintain excellent water stability. They resist turning into fine dust or leaching organic compounds prematurely, preventing toxic ammonia spikes and keeping your nursery tanks clean and crystal clear.

🛠️ Feeding Protocol & Aquarium Care Guide
Feeding Administration: Feed 3 to 5 times daily in very small, controlled pinches. Only dispense what the fry can consume within 1 to 2 minutes. Frequent, tiny feedings are vital for alevins due to their microscopic stomachs and rapid metabolic rates.
Lighting Configuration: Standard Full-Spectrum LED. Maintain a stable 10 to 12-hour daily photoperiod in nursery tanks. Proper lighting is absolutely essential for early-stage fry to easily locate micro-granules, reducing mortality rates caused by starvation.
Temperature Parameters: Keep your nursery ecosystem strictly stable within the ideal range of 25°C – 28°C (77°F – 82°F). Consistent warmth optimizes the digestive enzyme pathways of delicate fry, allowing them to rapidly process high-protein meals into clean muscle mass.
Aquarium Hygiene: Micro-diets require flawless water quality. Perform small daily or bi-weekly 10% water changes using an airline tubing siphon protected by a sponge or fine mesh to remove settled waste without harming the tiny fry.
