{"product_id":"vitalis-marine-grazer-mini","title":"Vitalis Marine Grazer Mini — Grazing Fish Food Rings for Tangs and Marine Herbivores 120 g and 240 g","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Vitalis Marine Grazer Mini turns feeding time into natural grazing. Each water-stable ring attaches to the aquarium glass with the suction fixing included in the pot, creating a feeding station where tangs and other marine herbivores graze throughout the day — just as they would on a reef. Because the ring holds together in water, less food breaks loose, which means less waste and better water quality in your reef tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommended for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll grazing marine fish: tangs and surgeonfish, unicornfish, rabbitfish, butterflyfish, parrotfish and wrasse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a grazing station instead of pellets?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEncourages natural feeding behaviour — fish graze instead of gulping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly stable in water, keeping fish busy and fed throughout the day\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLess waste — improved water quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNatural, sustainably sourced ingredients\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e120 g or 240 g?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth sizes contain the exact same rings and the same formula.

The one mistake to avoid is letting the ring drop to the bottom once the fish have had enough. The first few times, watch how long your fish actively graze, then remove the ring before it detaches and gets lost at the bottom. Used properly, it's a fantastic food: fish graze like they do in the wild, it keeps them busy all day and feeds them very well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI personally visited the Vitalis facility in the UK, and I was genuinely impressed by the quality and the way it's made: the same facilities used for human-grade food production, with extremely strict, elevated standards and dedicated rooms to prevent cross-contamination. I couldn't believe my eyes when I toured the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e— Stéphane\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eComposition and analytical constituents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposition:\u003c\/strong\u003e fish and fish derivatives, derivatives of vegetable origin, algae, molluscs and crustaceans, oils and fats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalytical constituents:\u003c\/strong\u003e Protein 28.1% - Fat content 8.8% - Inorganic matter 9.7% - Crude fibre 4.1% - Moisture 24.5%.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutritional additives (per kg):\u003c\/strong\u003e Vitamin A 12,605 IU, Vitamin D3 1,681 IU, Vitamin E 168 mg, zinc 63 mg, manganese 35.2 mg, copper 19.3 mg, iron 7.2 mg, iodine 6.6 mg.

It is not to be confused with a copper-based medication: it is a dietary component, as found in most complete fish foods.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I attach the grazing ring to the aquarium glass?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe suction fixing is included in the pot: clean the glass area, press the suction cup on and slide the ring onto it.
