Daphnia, commonly known as water fleas, are small freshwater crustaceans used as live or frozen food for aquarium fish, especially as a natural laxative. Their high fiber content helps clear intestinal blockages in fish. Daphnia filter feed, making them easy to culture and an excellent first food for fry. Richer in roughage than brine shrimp.

Key Features:

• Natural Digestive Aid: High fiber promotes gut motility.
• Easy to Culture: Reproduce rapidly in green water (algae).
• Gentle Movement: Triggers feeding response in shy or small fish.
• Available Live or Frozen: Cultured indoors or outdoor ponds.
