Freshtick
Freshtick is a blend of diverse, all natural, self-production, highly technical compounds, providing natural and balanced nutrition for omnivorous freshwater fish and invertebrates .
Freshtick provides an essential source of proteins, lipids rich in fatty acids (EPA, ARA and DHA), vitamins and carbohydrates, all from natural sources of aquatic origin.
Freshtick is a self-adhesive paste in a powder formula , ready for rehydration with water. Once it is rehydrated, it can be stuck to any surface of the aquarium , depending on the animals’ needs.
The rehydratable powder formula allows Masstick to be blended with any mollusc or crustacean pulp as well as eggs from fish, molluscs and crustaceans, artemia, mysids, copepods, rotifers and medicines that are administered orally. Once prepared and introduced into the aquarium, Freshtick does not disperse into the water for hours , so it can be completely taken advantage of by fish and crustaceans. This feature allows the product to be used as “ad libitum” or rationed feeding.
Because Freshtick is comprised mainly of freeze-dried crustaceans, it does not contain fish skeletons and is thus very low in phosphates compared to its protein content.
Freshstick is made with the freshest and highest quality ingredients. The blend consists mainly of shrimp (Palaemonetes varians) harvested in our Veta La Palma Natural Space which are immediately freeze-dried to maintain an optimum nutritional value. Freeze-dried microalgae and macroalgae is also added to the bled in order to satisfy the nutritional needs of a wide variety of freshwater fish .
Instructions
Add Freshtick to osmosis water in a 2:1 ratio.
Example: Mix 42g of Freshtick with 20-21ml of RO water . Knead in a small ziplock bag until a homogenous mixture is obtained.
Once the mixture is homogenous, Freshtick may be used immediately or frozen for later use . If freezing Masstick, it should be used within five weeks after preparation.
Instructions for use:
Take a portion of Freshtick and stick it on a rock, a branched coral skeleton, or the aquarium glass (preferably on the lower third), or depending on the food-obtaining habits of the animals in the aquarium.
