Description

250ml Live Seed Shrimp (Ostracods) Starter Culture, a must-have for hobbyists and aquarists seeking a natural, low-maintenance solution for tank health and fish nutrition. These tiny microcrustaceans, often called seed shrimp, are a powerhouse addition to any aquatic ecosystem, offering dual benefits as both a nutritious live food source and an efficient cleanup crew.

Our ostracods are carefully bred in a controlled, parasite-free environment. Each 250ml bottle contains over 100+ lively seed shrimp, ranging from 0.45mm to 2mm in size, perfect for feeding fry, small fish, or shrimps.

Their small size and active movement make them an irresistible, protein-packed treat that encourages natural foraging behavior, promoting healthier and more vibrant fish. Beyond their role as live fish food, ostracods are exceptional tank cleaners. These detritivores feed on algae, decaying plant matter, and organic waste, helping to maintain crystal-clear water and a balanced ecosystem. Their ability to consume microscopic debris reduces the need for frequent tank maintenance, making them ideal for both beginner and experienced aquarists. Ostracods will help transform your tank into a thriving, self-sustaining ecosystem.

Whether you’re setting up a small nano tank or a larger aquarium, this starter culture is designed to thrive in a variety of water conditions, from cool to tropical temperatures.

This starter culture kit includes:

  1. 250ml Live Ostracods culture
  2. Culture Setup and maintenance guide
  3. Pipette
Packaged with care, our 250ml culture arrives with a pipette for easy handling and detailed instructions to ensure success. Backed by our commitment to quality, this starter culture is a cost-effective way to enhance your aquarium’s health and biodiversity.
