Gamma Cockle in Shell Frozen Flat Pack – 250g

Natural Shellfish for Larger, Hungry Fish

Gamma Cockle in Shell is a substantial natural frozen food that's perfect for larger marine fish and cichlids that enjoy meaty shellfish.

Unlike small frozen foods that disperse quickly through the aquarium, Cockle in Shell provides fish with something they can actively pick, bite and tear at during feeding. This makes it an excellent choice for larger species and a useful way to introduce a different food type and feeding experience.

Why Choose Cockle in Shell?

Different fish require very different foods.

While Mysis, Brineshrimp and plankton are excellent for smaller and medium fish, larger species often appreciate something considerably more substantial.

Cockle in Shell is particularly suited to:

• Larger marine fish
• Fish that readily eat shellfish
• Carnivorous and omnivorous species
• Larger, powerful feeders
• Adding natural shellfish to the diet
• Providing greater feeding variety

The shell also makes this quite different from conventional loose frozen foods, allowing suitable fish to actively work at the food rather than simply swallowing individual particles from the water.

Simple, Natural Ingredients

Tropical Marine Centre lists the ingredients as:

Mactra sp. • Water

That's it – natural shellfish supplied frozen without the complicated ingredient list of a formulated food.

Cockle provides a different texture and feeding experience from shrimp and plankton-based foods, making it particularly useful as part of a varied frozen diet.

A Great Addition to Your Frozen Food Rotation

Gamma Cockle in Shell doesn't need to replace your everyday frozen foods.

Instead, use it alongside Mysis for regular meaty feeding, Brineshrimp for smaller fish and Krill for another substantial crustacean food.

Providing different foods throughout the week introduces different sizes, textures and ingredients while making feeding more interesting for both fish and fishkeeper.

Gamma Irradiated for Added Biosecurity

Gamma frozen foods are gamma irradiated. Tropical Marine Centre states that this eliminates the risk of introducing harmful parasites or bacteria through the frozen food.

The ingredients are rapidly packed, sealed and frozen, and Gamma frozen food is used throughout TMC's UK fish-holding facilities.

Larger 250g Flat Pack

Rather than individual blister cubes, Cockle in Shell comes in a larger 250g flat pack, making it well suited to aquariums containing bigger fish with correspondingly bigger appetites.

Remove an appropriate amount and feed according to the size, number and appetite of your fish. Remove significant uneaten remains before they begin to deteriorate in the aquarium.
