BEA - Dried Green Seaweed - Small Flakes - 5g

Plant-based food for herbivorous fish: a real alternative to "random algae"

Algophile fish aren't satisfied with just any old piece of green. They need a regular supply of plant matter with a texture and composition that's easy to digest. BEA - Ocean Gold focuses on naturally dried marine macroalgae , without any shortcuts, to perfectly match the diet of these grazers. It's the kind of food you give when you want to avoid guesswork: a clear, simple plant base, designed for the specific needs of algae eaters.

The benefit also lies in limiting the problems associated with unsuitable substitutes: temperamental digestion, average absorption, and sometimes imbalances that ultimately affect energy levels and color retention. Here, the goal is to provide a consistent, plant-based diet that can be used daily without any hassle.

Nutritional profile rich in fiber, protein and essential minerals

BEA - Ocean Gold offers a sensible combination for herbivores: plenty of insoluble fiber to aid digestion, a good protein content (15–20%) to support overall health, and easily digestible carbohydrates to prevent the fish from running on empty between meals. As for minerals, the natural presence of calcium , magnesium , and iron helps maintain a stable metabolism, especially in a tank with constant activity.

And since these algae are naturally rich in bioactive compounds, they also provide beneficial elements for everyday life: beta-glucans , vitamins , phycocyanins , carotenoids , biopeptides , and antioxidants . Without making any magical promises, this contributes to a more complete and, in a way, more "alive" diet.

Pigments and well-being: chlorophyll, carotenoids and color maintenance

Natural pigments aren't just there to look pretty on the label. The chlorophyll and carotenoids present in algae support the metabolic well-being of fish and help maintain more vibrant colors, especially in species that spend their time grazing. In a reef aquarium, when plant-based food is regular and of high quality, it often shows in the overall appearance: more consistent fish, less erratic behavior, and cleaner coloration.

Convenient format and simple daily dosage

The product comes in a 60ml sachet containing approximately 5g of natural dried algae . The idea is to feed frequently, but in small amounts: 2 to 3 times a day , just enough so that everyone can nibble without waste. To maintain a balanced diet, alternating with other foods from the BEA range is a good practice, especially if the tank contains a mix of herbivores, omnivores, and invertebrates.

Precautions for use: hygiene and storage without preservatives

Since the product is advertised as preservative-free , the rule is simple: dispense cleanly, avoid wetting the contents, and reseal carefully after use. Hygienic handling limits the risk of contamination and helps preserve the product in good condition. And of course: not intended for human consumption ; keep out of reach of children.
