Mineral Junkie Bites – Essential Mineral Supplement for Invertebrates
Minerals are vital for invertebrates in the aquarium, but they cannot be produced by the respective organism itself. With Mineral Junkie Bites you can supply your animals with all the important minerals they need. The small sticks/bites contain both inorganically and organically bound minerals in order to avoid deficiency symptoms, which are often noticeable in shrimp and other crustaceans through shedding problems, weak growth and high mortality rates in young animals.
With snails, Mineral Junkie Bites help prevent pitting in the shell. Snails grow better with sufficient mineral supply and build an even, strong shell.
