Moina Micrura (1 Packet)
Description
Moina (Moina spp.), often referred to as freshwater water fleas, is one of the most nutritious and effective live foods for both growing fry and broodstock conditioning. Rich in protein, essential fatty acids, and natural carotenoids, Moina significantly improves growth rate, body condition, immunity, and coloration. Due to their jerky swimming motion, Moina strongly stimulates natural feeding responses and is readily accepted by fry, juveniles, and adult fish. They are particularly valuable for conditioning breeders, as regular feeding enhances gonadal development and spawning readiness. Small cichlids such as Apistogramma and Mikrogeophagus ramirezi (Rams) show improved vitality, stronger pair bonding, and better breeding results when fed Moina regularly. Moina can survive for extended periods in freshwater, reducing waste and improving feed utilization. Culturing Moina is relatively easy and highly productive, making it ideal for ornamental fish breeders. We offer healthy, active Moina starter cultures, packed securely in a LD cover, ready for immediate introduction and rapid multiplication under proper culture conditions.
