Sera Granured: Premium Granulated Feed for Carnivorous Cichlids
Sera Granured is a high‑quality, nutritionally balanced granule feed specifically formulated for carnivorous cichlids and other predatory fish. Packaged in a convenient 250 ml container (approximately 135 g), this product delivers essential proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals required for optimal growth, coloration, and overall health of your aquarium inhabitants.
Key Features
- Granulated Texture: The fine, pelletized form ensures easy consumption by fish with sharp teeth while preventing waste in the tank.
- Color Enhancement: Designed to boost natural coloration, making your cichlids appear more vibrant and healthy.
- Balanced Nutrition: Contains a precise blend of proteins (typically 35–40 %), fats (12–15 %), fibers, and essential micronutrients tailored for carnivorous species.
- Low Ash Content: Minimizes excess minerals that could otherwise accumulate in the aquarium, maintaining water quality.
- Long Shelf Life: Properly sealed packaging protects against moisture and oxidation, preserving freshness for months.
Ideal For
This feed is specifically recommended for:
- Carnivorous cichlids such as Astatotilapia burtoni, Pseudocrenilabrus multicolor, and other Tanganyika species.
- Other predatory fish that require a protein‑rich diet, including certain bass, pike, and large loaches.
- Enrichment of aquarium ecosystems where natural prey is scarce or seasonal.
Feeding Guidelines
- Quantity: Feed 1–2 pellets per fish per feeding session. Adjust based on appetite and tank size.
- Frequency: Offer once or twice daily, ensuring leftovers are removed within 10–15 minutes to prevent water degradation.
- Complementary Foods: Pair with occasional live or frozen foods (e.g., bloodworms, brine shrimp) for variety and additional nutrients.
- Storage: Keep the container in a cool, dry place. Once opened, reseal tightly to maintain granule integrity.
