Product description
Fats and oils are the most important energy sources for fish and are an important factor in determining the quality of the fish food. Delicate components like unsaturated fatty acids often get damaged during processing of fish food. Besides heating and drying, storage and contact with air can impair the quality of the foodstuff. Essential fatty acids and nutritious substances are vital for marine fish; only when they are in sufficient supply, can fish survive stressful situations unharmed and resist germs and parasites. Our special dietary supplements are carefully formulated to meet the nutritional requirements of marine fish and supplement the vital substances which may be in short supply.
Tropic Marin Lipovit is a mixture of select high-quality oils and contains the unsaturated fatty acids of the marine oils (omega-3 fatty acids). These enhance the resistance of fish to stress and pathogenic organisms. In addition, a special selection of vitamins and natural carotenoids improve colour and fertility of the fish. Garlic extract stimulates the immune system and also makes the food more attractive to the fish.
