🚨🐟 ARE YOU AGAINST USING COLOUR-ENHANCING FISH FOODS? 🎨❌

There’s actually a reason so many aquarium hobbyists have a strong opinion on colour foods — even when the full story behind astaxanthin isn’t widely understood. 👀🧬

And, to our knowledge, this is one of the first times this information has really been laid out for aquarium hobbyists. 👇👇👇

🔴 THE ISSUE ISN’T ASTAXANTHIN ITSELF.
The big difference is where it comes from. 🌿🆚🧪

Synthetic astaxanthin has a different molecular configuration to naturally occurring astaxanthin. 🧬🔄

That difference matters because astaxanthin has to be transported from the liver by lipoproteins 🚚🩸 before it can reach the chromatophores responsible for visible colour.

With synthetic astaxanthin:

🧪 Only around 7% can effectively associate with these transport systems.
📉 Only a small percentage reaches the intended colour pigments.
🫀 Much of the remainder is left to be processed and broken down through the liver.

And THAT is why traditional colour-feeding programs are commonly cycled. ⏱️

👉 Feed for a period.
👉 Stop.
👉 Give the liver time to process the accumulated material.
👉 Then begin again.

🤯 But what if you didn’t need the 2-week colour-food cycle?

🌿🐟 AquaMunch Super Colour uses natural astaxanthin sources — with NO synthetic astaxanthin sources.

That means Super Colour is designed as a long-term diet, not simply a short-term colour booster. ✅🎨🐠

Natural astaxanthin costs dramatically more — but when we formulate fish food, we believe the biological source matters. 💰➡️🧬

It’s one of the reasons SALMON 🐟🧡 sits at the foundation of AquaMunch instead of relying on cheaper white-flesh fish meals.

🔥 COLOUR ISN’T MAGIC. IT’S BIOCHEMISTRY.

And over the next few posts, we’re going to show you exactly how it works. 🔬🧬🎨🐟

Shrimp moults are the most crucial part of the shrimp life cycle, they either have enough mineral reserves or they die. Aquarium shrimp go through this process several times throughout their lifetime each moult is how shrimp grow.

We will release a series on the benefits of Shrimp Essential AquaGels for shrimp in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out for them!

The Ultimate Tropical Insect diet for all Tropical Fish Omnivores.

Looking to reduce your food costs?

Did you know AquaGel diets are up to 75% 🤑cheaper than premium pellet costs when compared kg to kg while also having up to double the available nutrition if the formulas were made equally?

Australia is still new to Gel diets and often the main constraint is not realising the significant benefits gel diets offer over traditional pellets or flakes.

If you are curious let us know and we would be delighted to show you why your fish would benefit from you giving our AquaGel's a go! 😁
