Tetra claim that their new Marine Gel foods are a real breakthrough innovation in the marine foods market, offering all the benefits of frozen with none of the disadvantages.
"They offer natural foods in a gel that is enriched with the essential nutrients that marine fish need, such as vitamins, proteins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids," say Tetra.
"Plus, they are easy and clean to use, do not need freezing, and are fully sterilised."
"This means marine fish get a nutritionally superior diet that tastes great."
"TetraMarine Gel foods come in two varieties – a sachet for regular meals and a 24hr feeding block that allows grazing species to feed more naturally."
"There are also different formulas to cater for a range of species with different feeding requirements."
Frozen foods lack essential nutrients
Rupert Bridges of Tetra adds: “Many marine fish are fed a diet based on frozen food because of its high acceptability to a wide range of species. Frozen foods, however, are not complete diets and lack essential nutrients."
"They are also messy and inconvenient to use, especially for new marine aquarium owners."
"Our Marine Gel foods are a totally new concept in feeding marine fish, and are the ideal diet to feed to species that either don’t eat dry foods or have specific feeding requirements."
"They offer improved nutrition and convenience.”
