Enriched with whole salmon for Omega 3 & 6, plus essential vitamins and minerals, it supports all life stages of turtles. Sustainably produced in small batches for maximum freshness, Bug Bites taps into turtles’ natural feeding instincts while delivering balanced nutrition for vibrant health and shell strength. ## Description Fluval Bug Bites is a complete turtle food that features a unique insect-based formulation, enriched with multiple quality proteins and carbohydrates that are ideal for small to medium-sized turtles. Bug Bites’ daily diet formula is enriched with eggs, is highly digestible and offers turtles a great source of niacin, riboflavin, magnesium and potassium for their overall health and condition. It also includes added vitamin D3 for a robust shell. Insects are hunted by turtles in the wild as they offer a widely available food source. The instinctive feeding habit is the foundation behind Bug Bites, which are formulated with nutrient-rich insect larvae and enriched with multiple quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Most turtles are omnivores and regularly feed on insects in the wild. However, not all insects are created equally when it comes to a fish’s diet. Bug Bites are formulated with sustainably harvested Black Soldier Fly Larvae (#1 ingredient across all formulas), which are raised on fruits and vegetables for exceptional “super food” nutrition. Using a unique cultivation process, BSFL are grown under controlled conditions for total sustainability that preserves natural environments. Under controlled conditions, Black Soldier Flies produce larvae, which naturally feed on decaying organic matter. Unconsumed fruits and vegetables are used as larvae feed. The larvae consume the feed, converting the nutrients into protein and healthy fat. After a 2-week feeding cycle, the larvae are harvested and dried. The dried larvae are mixed with other high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements to offer a complete and balanced daily diet. In addition to BSFL, Bug Bites offer other excellent protein sources such as Herring & Shrimp Meal, which are also rich in Omega-3 for healthy skin, scales and colors. Unlike big brand turtle foods, Bug Bites are always prepared in small batches for superior control and quality assurance. The proximity of our ingredients (most of which are delivered right before production) also offers maximum freshness, which translates into better palatability. ## Features - Turtle food that contains up to 40%, nutrient-rich Black Soldier Fly Larvae, the first ingredient - High in multiple proteins like whole salmon – rich in Omega 3 and 6 - Fortified with essential vitamins, amino acids and minerals for a balanced daily diet - Floating pellet format features a taste turtles crave; feed as much as a turtle can eat in two minutes, two or three times daily - Sustainably processed in small batches for quality control and maximum freshness - Age range description: All Life Stages ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07B9GJ851 | | ASIN | B07B9GJ851 | | Additional Features | Insect-based formulation with Black Soldier Fly Larvae and sustainably processed in small batches | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Allergen Information | Brazil Nuts Free | | Animal Food Diet Type | Veterinary Diet | | Best Sellers Rank | #13,823 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #289 in Reptile & Amphibian Food | | Brand Name | Fluval | | Breed Recommendation | Medium Breeds | | Container Type | Bottle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (280) | | Date First Available | March 7, 2018 | | Department | Unisex-Adult | | Dog Breed Size | Small | | Flavor | Salmon | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00015561165921, 10015561165928 | | Included Components | 1 Food Canister | | Item Form | Pellet | | Item Type Name | Fish Food | | Item Weight | 0.05 kg | | Item model number | A6592 | | Manufacturer | Rolf C.
