DESCRIPTION:
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 you can avoid pitting in the shell with Mineral Junkie Bites, they grow better with sufficient mineral supply and build an even, strong snail shell.


A sufficient supply of minerals is a very important factor in keeping and breeding shrimp, crayfish, crabs and snails, they are literally “addicted” to these substances. All invertebrates have a so-called exoskeleton, which consists of minerals, among other things. However, minerals are also responsible for many more specific tasks in the organism, e.g. for stimulating muscles and nerves. As is well known, the color cells of ornamental shrimp (chromatophores) are coupled to muscles, so an optimal supplementation of minerals can have a positive effect on the species-specific colouration. Numerous hormonal processes are also not possible without minerals.


In addition to minerals, Mineral Junkie Bites also contain useful vegetarian ingredients and herbal extracts with many secondary plant substances for agile and healthy animals. Protein and fat are very low, so the water quality is hardly affected and you can also use the Mineral Junkie Bites as summer or weekend food.

DOA Policy

Sorry, but there is no DOA coverage on this item as the product was not alive when we shipped it. If the item arrives alive, you may want to check the dosage on your medications, take a closer look at those mushrooms you bought at the store, and/or pray to your chosen deity because the end might be nigh. Also, if the product arrives alive, it is not eligible for a refund/replacement because the next one will likely arrive in the same condition and we can not be held responsible for animation of inanimate objects. And we certainly DO NOT want it back! We have more than enough lifeforms between the two of us and can’t take on anything new at this time. Just give it a name and make sure it’s potty trained because it is now your new pet. If you have read this all the way to the bottom, we like you! You’re our kind of weird.
