Protein XP is a protein-rich feed to promote growth and reproduction in shrimp, crayfish, snails, and tropical fish. Proteins are the building blocks for cell and tissue growth and form the basis for strong, healthy body structures. Protein content plays a central role, especially when breeding shrimp and other aquarium inhabitants, where the requirements for reproduction and juvenile care are high.

The GlasGarten Protein XP feed covers this increased need with a 42% protein content derived from animal and vegetable sources. It supports fertility and egg formation in female shrimp, as well as the healthy growth of the young. If there is a protein deficiency, female shrimp cannot form well-developed egg packets; this can be observed when the egg spot in the neck area does not grow sufficiently or stagnates. Juvenile shrimp also have an increased protein requirement during rapid growth phases, as they must moult much more frequently in the first few weeks of life and grow more quickly than adults. They expend significant energy and require proteins for development. If these are not available in sufficient quantities, few juvenile animals typically reach adulthood. Proteins are essential for life, and breeders specifically provide high-protein feeds to ensure animals are optimally supplied for successful breeding.

Protein XP is a staple food for a powerful diet suited to increased protein requirements. The recipe is based on GlasGarten’s more than 20 years of experience as shrimp breeders and contains all the important proteins, vitamins, trace elements, minerals, essential amino acids, omega-3 fatty acids, and enzymes necessary for successful reproduction and rapid, healthy growth. It also contains supporting ingredients that make proteins easier for the body to absorb and process, including chitin, β-glucans, and iodine, for a strong immune system and a problem-free moulting process in shrimp.

Protein XP from GlasGarten is highly suitable for shrimp, snails, crayfish, crabs, and omnivorous fish species.

Protein XP consists of 100% natural ingredients.
