A set gel diet for aquatic turtles. The practical advantage over pellets or mince is that it holds together in water — a turtle tears pieces off a firm cube instead of scattering crumbs that end up in the filter and drive nitrate up. Cut cubes to a size your turtle can swallow whole, and remove anything uneaten after 15 minutes.
85g and 170g tubs. Calcium is already at 3.0-3.5%, but shell growth also needs UVB — food alone will not prevent metabolic bone disease. See the rest of the reptile food range.
Benefits
- 45-47% protein — Australian fish meal, black soldier fly meal, earthworm meal, soybean meal and pea protein
- 3.0-3.5% calcium — from Australian oyster shell, for shell and bone
- Sets firm — sodium alginate keeps the cube intact in water
- No synthetic additives — ascorbic acid, citric acid and rosemary do the preserving
