A small 2–3 mm floating stick for juvenile terrapins and aquatic turtles, when protein and calcium demand is at its highest. Vitamin A is included specifically against swollen eyelids, one of the more common complaints in young turtles, and the soluble calcium content is aimed at shell and skeletal development.
It is a food for aquatic turtles and terrapins. It is not suitable for land tortoises, which need a high-fibre, low-protein diet and will do badly on it.

Feeding
Feed what the turtle clears in a few minutes and net out the rest — uneaten pellets are the fastest way to foul a turtle tank. Pellets are a staple, not a complete diet on their own: most keepers also offer greens and the occasional protein treat, and a separate calcium and UVB source still matters for shell development.
More turtle and reptile food is in Reptile Food, and the rest of the brand is in the Ocean Free range.
