The GARNELEN4YOU® Neo Algae Sticks were specifically developed for Neocaridina shrimp and are based on study results regarding the effect of spirulina on the reproductive rate of Neocaridina davidi (Kohal et al., 2017). The combination of nettle, spirulina, sea algae (kelp), and chlorella specifically provides the nutrients that can demonstrably promote breeding and offspring rates – grain-free, fishmeal-free, 100% natural. A product of biologist and shrimp breeder Dr. Philipp T. Baumann.

Why Neo Algae Sticks for Neocaridina Breeders?

• Scientifically proven: Increased spirulina content in the diet demonstrably leads to higher fertility, better hatching rates, and higher survival rates of offspring in Neocaridina davidi.
• Spirulina + Kelp + Chlorella: Three powerful types of algae in one stick – rich in protein, carotenoids, iodine, omega-3 fatty acids, and a broad spectrum of vitamins.
• Nettle as a base: Calcium, magnesium, and natural plant compounds supplement the algae profile and support shell development and molting.
• Flexible 3-system: In rotation with Carny & Planty Sticks, the Neo Algae Sticks form the optimal Neocaridina feeding concept – every third time Neo Algae Sticks for maximum effect.
• Grain-free & fishmeal-free: Pure plant ingredients, no chemical additives, no unnecessary water pollution.

Important note for breeders:

Yellow Neocaridina shrimp (e.g., Yellow Fire, Banana) may temporarily take on a slightly greenish hue if fed very frequently with Neo Algae Sticks – caused by the spirulina content. This is harmless and reversible. For optimal results, adhere to the recommended rotation frequency: Neo Algae Sticks every third feeding, alternating with Carny & Planty Sticks.
