Live Daphnia, sometimes called Water fleas, are filter feeders that will consume green water in fishless wildlife ponds, or offer a tasty meal to freshwater aquarium fish. A Daphnia culture can even develop in an unfiltered, fishless pond, clearing water naturally and providing food for amphibians and other wildlife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAre live Daphnia good for fish?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaphnia are a high-protein meal for fish similar to Brine shrimp. They are particularly good for getting fish to eat as, unlike dried or frozen food, they naturally encourage feeding behaviours. However, we do recommend that if you are going to use Daphnia as a staple food, you also pair it with dry food to ensure your fish receive a beneficial and well-rounded diet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich fish eat Daphnia?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll tropical and coldwater freshwater fish will eat Daphnia, from tetras and gouramies to guppies, angelfish, rasboras, rainbowfish, danios and cichlids. Goldfish eat Daphnia too and a diet of live bloodworm and Daphnia may help to prevent swim bladder issues in Fancy goldfish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I store Daphnia?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDaphnia will arrive fresh and ready to be fed to your pets, simply dump the Daphnia into your tank during feeding and your fish will take care of the rest. If you don't want to feed all your Daphnia to your pets at once, you can also store them somewhere dark with a low temperature, where they should survive for a couple of days until you need them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-decoded=\"true\" data-element=\"main\" data-appearance=\"default\" data-content-type=\"html\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease Note: Aquadip live food is delivered to us weekly on Fridays.
