(complete micro worms breeding kit for your fry) - French instructions included
Your fish have spawned? Congratulations!
This Zollabox allows you to raise your own clean natural food from birth for livebearers, or for egg-layers just after the first few days.
With this kit, cultivating your micro worms is so easy that you can finally do without brine shrimp.
More practical, even smaller and... no saltwater needed!
Unlike adult fish, few fry accept artificial and industrial food. And when they do manage to eat it, their growth and health often suffer.
The brine shrimp nauplii solution exists. But it requires considerable know-how and patience, space, and substantial equipment. Not to mention that these are salty crustaceans that must be rinsed beforehand in a special sieve.
For many years, experienced aquarists have known that brine shrimp are advantageously replaced by micro worms. These worms are absolutely tiny and can be eaten by fry even earlier than the much larger brine shrimp nauplii.
For example, guppy or platy fry feed on them from birth, and cichlid fry after barely 3 days!
However, artisanal breeding of micro worms outside of a fish-room is problematic. Between more or less smelly recipes, makeshift or recycled containers, neither eyes nor nose have a good time!
It's a shame because, while any aquarist will have fry at some point, the ideal culture to feed them remains quite niche and reserved for the initiated.
The result of decades of experience in natural fry feeding by Mattier, the Zollabox Baby finally makes this ideal fry food accessible to everyone, simply and cleanly.
The Zollabox Baby provides you with all the advice and equipment to easily succeed in this small breeding.
This superb kit contains an aesthetic culture jar that can be placed next to the aquarium without needing to hide it. The substrate is almost odorless and allows for about a month of culture.
A wooden stirrer, a dosing syringe, and clear instructions make starting the culture disarmingly easy. The live natural worm strain is obviously included. A brush is added to the set for simple and clean worm harvesting.
By following the provided tips and tricks, this very simple culture is quick to start and allows you to harvest enough food within a few days to feed your fry abundantly, several times a day.
After a month, you just need to use the Zollabox Baby refill to transfer your first culture into a new substrate. A new stirrer is also provided.
