The high-protein pellet in Zoo Med's aquatic turtle range, at 35% minimum protein, formulated for turtles with a carapace between about 5cm and 15cm — the stage where they are growing fastest and eating the most. Once a turtle passes about 15cm the same protein level becomes more than it needs, and the Adult Maintenance Formula is the one to move to.
Benefits
- 35% minimum protein — built for the growth stage.
- Kale and dried kelp included alongside the fish meal base.
- Stabilised vitamin C and a complete vitamin and mineral premix.
Ingredients

Feeding Guide
Offer 1 level teaspoon per turtle. Allow at least an hour to feed, then net out and discard anything uneaten — leftover food is the fastest route to foul water in a turtle tank. A filter and regular water changes are not optional at this feeding rate.
Pair with ReptiSafe for water changes. More in Reptile Food.
