Minerals are a vital component for the inverts in your aquaria. They cannot be produced by the organism itself but need to be ingested with food. You can provide your aquarium inverts with all the minerals they need with the Mineral Junkie Bites. These bites contain inorganic minerals as well as organically bound minerals, which prevent mineral deficiencies that, in shrimp and other crustaceans, often cause molting problems, slow growth, and a high mortality rate, especially amongst juveniles.
Snails can be given the Mineral Junkie Bites to prevent holes from forming in their shells. Snails also grow better when they are supplied with an ample amount of minerals, and their shells tend to be smoother and stronger.
An ample mineral supply is a crucial factor in breeding and keeping shrimp, crayfish, crabs, and snails; they are addicted (in a figurative sense) to these substances. All inverts possess an exoskeleton, an important part of which they build from minerals. However, this is not the only thing; they need minerals for vital tasks, such as the excitation of muscles and nerves. As we know, the colour cells of dwarf shrimp (the chromatophores) are connected to muscles. An optimal mineral supply may thus have a positive effect on the intensity of species-specific colours. Many hormonal processes would also be impossible without the right minerals.
Besides minerals, the Mineral Junkie Bites contain vegetable ingredients and herbal extracts that are rich in beneficial phytochemicals, for agile and healthy inverts. The protein and fat have been kept deliberately low to prevent undue water pollution. The Mineral Junkie Bites are an ideal staple food for the summer or when you are away for the weekend.
