Rotifer & Artemia Enrichment – Fuel, Enrich & Protect Your Larvae
Give your marine larvae, corals, and filter feeders the nutritional edge they need with Reefphyto’s Rotifer & Artemia Enrichment — a clean, high-performance microalgae blend designed to dramatically enhance the food value of live rotifers and brine shrimp.
Live foods are only as nutritious as what they consume. This enrichment ensures rotifers and Artemia are fully loaded with essential fatty acids, proteins, and micronutrients before they enter your aquarium, delivering superior nutrition exactly where it matters most.
Why Enrichment Matters
Rotifers and Artemia derive their true feeding value from the contents of their digestive tract and eggs. Without enrichment, they provide limited nutritional benefit. When properly enriched, however, they become a powerful delivery system for EPA, DHA, amino acids, and sterols — critical building blocks for healthy growth, development, and survival.
This is especially important for:
-
Marine fish larvae and fry
-
Non-photosynthetic corals
-
Filter-feeding invertebrates
Benefits for Your Aquarium
-
Larval Growth & Survival – Supplies essential EPA & DHA for strong development
-
Coral & Filter Feeder Nutrition – Provides bioavailable microalgae-rich prey
-
Clean Feeding Solution – No powders or emulsions to foul cultures or systems
-
Improved Rotifer Health – Supports long-term culture stability
-
Professional-Grade Results – Suitable for hobbyists, breeders, and laboratories
High-Quality Microalgae Composition
This concentrated blend contains two of the most effective enrichment species used in marine aquaculture:
-
Nannochloropsis – Rich in EPA, supports immune function and growth
-
Isochrysis – High DHA content, critical for neural and visual development
Together, they form the gold standard diet for enriching rotifers and Artemia.
Feeding & Enrichment Guidance
-
Add 1 – 5 drops directly to your live rotifer or Artemia culture
-
Enrich for 6 – 12 hours before feeding to larvae or corals
-
Adjust dosage based on culture density and water clarity
This timing ensures maximum nutrient uptake and optimal delivery to your aquarium.
Storage & Shelf Life
Pro Tip
For best results, maintain rotifers and Artemia on this enrichment regularly, not just before feeding. Consistent enrichment improves egg quality, culture resilience, and overall nutritional value.
