Brine shrimp

These very small crustaceans, commonly known as Artemia salina, are suitable for all types of fishes, even young fry.
Baby Brine Shrimp is a common food source for fish that are available in adult-form (Artemia salina) as eggs or freeze-dried.

During the past decade Artemia salina has become the most popular fodder for both salt-water and fresh-water fish bred in domestic aquariums or industrial ponds. 


Brine shrimp is a source of protein (50%), carotene (color enhancer), fats (20%) and acts as a natural laxative in fish digestive systems. 

Artemia can be used as aquarium food during all three phases of its life cycle.

• Artemia eggs without a shell are excellent fodder containing a high concentration of protein for fingerling and small fish.
• Nauplias – is initial fodder for aquarium fish youth.
• An adult Artemia is excellent fodder for a majority of mature fish species
