The Superior Alternative to Baby Brine Shrimp

Introducing Ceriodaphnia dubia, a superior and hassle-free alternative to baby brine shrimp. These tiny freshwater crustaceans, also known as water fleas, offer a sustainable and easy-to-maintain live feed option for your aquatic pets, from the tiniest fry to adult fish.

Key Features:

  • Nutrient-Rich and Convenient: Packed with essential proteins and fatty acids, Ceriodaphnia dubia is a nutritious choice that outperforms baby brine shrimp in both ease of cultivation and nutritional value.
  • No Saltwater Hassles: Say goodbye to the complexities of mixing saltwater and the continual purchase of brine shrimp eggs. Cultivating Ceriodaphnia dubia is straightforward, requiring only fresh water and minimal maintenance.
  • Ideal for Smaller Fry: The newborn Ceriodaphnia dubia are smaller than baby brine shrimp, making them the perfect food source for very small or newborn fry, ensuring your tiniest aquatic inhabitants are well fed from the start.
  • Sustainable Feeding Solution: Keep a continuous and reliable supply of live feed with our starter cultures of Ceriodaphnia dubia, which reproduce quickly and easily under the right conditions.

Size: >55-990 µ

NOTE: Our Ceriodaphnia dubia are co-cultured with scuds. Although we use sieves to separate them, we cannot guarantee that one will not contain the other. If you require a pure culture, please contact us and we will grow one out for you.
