Tropical Pro Defence Size S (Granules)

Description

Pro Defence size S

Slowly sinking granules with probiotic for everyday feeding of young fish and adult fish of small species

Probiotic added to the food contains viable Bacillus subtilis endospores, which stabilize gut microflora, boosting fish resistance to pathogens and facilitating utilization of nutrients, which in turn accelerates fish’s growth and reduces contamination of water with fish’s feces

The synergic effect of probiotic, beta-glucan, vitamins and carotenoids significantly improves fish’s overall condition and their immune system, hence food is recommended also during diseases, recovery or acclimatization

Probiotic positively influences reproduction, increasing fish’s fertility and the survival rate of the fry and alleviates stress caused by transportation, spawning, intra-species aggression, rivalry etc.

High content of protein, including essential amino acids, ensures healthy growth and development of fish

Pro Defence Size S granules: probiotic feeding for young and small fish

These slowly sinking granules carry the same Bacillus subtilis probiotic concept as the powder, scaled up for young fish and the adult small species that fill so many Singapore community tanks. The probiotic supports gut microflora, which the makers position as helpful during stressful periods such as after a move or while recovering condition. We find it a sensible everyday staple for keepers who like a gut-health angle in their rotation.

The slow sink suits mid-water and bottom feeders, giving shy fish time to reach food before it settles. In our warm 27-29C tanks, feed two modest portions a day rather than one heavy one, since fast metabolism means appetite returns quickly but waste builds just as fast. Keep portions to what the tank clears in a minute or two, and vary the diet so no single food dominates.
