Why Choose Stoffels Mysis?

For the beginner aquarist, choosing the right food can be overwhelming. Stoffels Mysis Shrimp are widely regarded by professionals as one of the best “staple” frozen foods available. Unlike many flake or pellet foods, Mysis shrimp contain high levels of naturally occurring proteins and fatty acids (Omega-3) that mimic a fish’s natural diet in the wild.

Nutritional Benefits

• Enhanced Coloration: Natural carotenes help bring out the vibrant reds, oranges, and blues in your fish.

• High Protein Content: Supports rapid growth in juveniles and helps repair damaged fins.

• Excellent Palatability: Even “finicky” eaters that refuse dry food will usually strike at frozen mysis immediately.

• Clean Energy: Provides the stamina required for active swimmers and breeding pairs.

Beginner-Friendly Feeding Instructions

Feeding frozen food doesn’t have to be complicated. Follow these simple steps to maintain a healthy tank:

1. Pop: Remove one cube from the blister pack.

2. Thaw: Place the cube in a small cup with a little bit of aquarium water for 2–3 minutes.

3. Rinse (Optional): Some hobbyists prefer to pour the thawed shrimp through a fine mesh net to remove excess juices.

4. Feed: Slowly add the shrimp to the tank. Only feed what your fish can consume within 2 minutes.

Pro Tip: Never defrost frozen food in a microwave or under hot water, as this destroys the delicate vitamins your fish need!
