AMPHIPODA FRESH

Amphipoda Fresh

Our fresh amphipods are taken directly from a controlled cultivation system to ensure the highest quality. With intact protein, essential fatty acids (DHA, EPA, ARA), and minerals, this fresh product is ideal for use as live feed for fish larvae, shrimp, and lobster seeds. Its freshness is maintained without additives so that the natural nutrients of the amphipods remain at their maximum.
