How long does the food keep after opening?
> Please ensure you buy a packaging size suitable for your aquarium/terrarium/pond so that the quantity contained is used up within 4 months. Compare it with a tin of biscuits lying around for several months. When properly stored they are not necessarily soggy, but they are not quite as tasty as when the packet was opened. Therefore it is not advisable to use the food after this time.
The repeated opening and closing of the packaging brings the food into contact with bacteria and humidity over a longer storage period. Thus the quality of the premium food reduces continuously and this influences the vitamin content and the freshness of the food. For the benefit of your animals you always should feed them fresh food.
JBL Gammarus as a Treat Food for Turtles
These cleaned, gently dried gammarus crustaceans are a supplementary food for turtles and terrapins, suiting animals from about 10 to 50cm. The natural calcium in the whole crustacean supports healthy shell development, which is a constant concern for the red-eared sliders and other terrapins kept across Singapore. Turtles take to them readily thanks to the palatability of properly dried gammarus, and the formula avoids cheap fishmeal fillers.
Treat them as a supplement rather than a staple. A turtle’s main diet should stay built around a balanced pellet and fresh greens, with gammarus offered as enrichment and a calcium boost a few times a week. Fish in the same setup will often take them too. Because our climate is warm and humid year-round, reseal the tub tightly and store it dry, using the contents within a few months of opening to keep them fresh.
Feed only what’s eaten in a few minutes to keep the water clean. For housing and diet, see our semi-aquatic turtle tank guide and musk turtle care guide, and browse more turtle and reptile products.
