Pure micronized spirulina: versatile natural food for shrimp and microfauna
What is micronized spirulina?
Ultra-fine powder of 100% pure spirulina (natural cyanobacteria), additive-free, designed for aquaristics. Micronization facilitates dispersion in water and assimilation by shrimp and microfauna (daphnia, ostracods, infusoria).
A practical and nutritious alternative to fresh phytoplankton.
Why use it in a natural aquarium?
- Rich and complete: proteins, pigments, minerals, trace elements, vitamins... Spirulina promotes growth, vitality, and colors.
- Versatile: perfect for shrimp and microfauna (daphnia, ostracods, infusoria).
- Convenient: rehydrates in seconds for an "algae juice" ready to distribute.
- Economical: a very small pinch is enough. Format adapted to aquaristics.
Who is pure micronized spirulina intended for?
- Breeders of daphnia and microfauna.
- Aquarists (tropical fish and shrimp) in low-tech or classic setups.
- Educational projects requiring natural food, alternative to fresh phytoplankton.
Usage advice
- Rehydrate: a small pinch in a little water, wait 2–3 minutes for moistening, stir. Distribute the resulting solution.
- Dosage: micro-doses, regularly rather than too much at once (prevents pollution).
- Cultures: excellent additive for infusoria (paddy rice), daphnia, ostracods, Blackworm that feed on it.
- Storage: keep dry, tightly closed, away from light.
FAQ - Micronized Spirulina
Difference with "classic" spirulina?
The micronized version disperses perfectly and is suitable for microfauna, shrimp, and fry, where coarser presentations sediment.
Is it suitable for shrimp?
Yes: excellent highly appreciated plant-based base (distribute small amounts at a time but regularly).
Can it be used as a supplement?
Yes, spirulina is an important ingredient if you prepare homemade rations for your fish, invertebrates, and shrimp.
Shelf life?
Long shelf life if kept dry and away from light. Ideally use within one year after opening.
Additional information
- Type: 100% pure natural spirulina in micronized form.
- Form: extremely fine powder.
- Use: practical alternative to fresh phytoplankton, food or supplement for various cultures: daphnia, ostracods, Blackworm, etc.
- Advice: feed regularly. Keep tightly closed, dry, and away from light.
- Presentation: 25 g jar of pure micronized spirulina
- Recommendation: for daphnia, rehydrate before distribution, to delay sedimentation. The spirulina will thus remain suspended longer.
