GEMMA Micro is a unique, patented diet that offers complete nutrition for every lifestage of zebrafish. Integration of GEMMA Micro to the zebrafish feeding regime requires NO Artemia, and can reduce feed frequency to only one feeding event per day for adult fish.
Smaller sizes of GEMMA Micro allow for earlier transition to microdiet from live feed. Feeding GEMMA Micro for the entire life cycle of zebrafish leads to healthy, robust, and highly fecund zebrafish.

Once the bag is opened, product should be used within 30 days under normal storage (refrigeration). Vacuum sealing can extend shelf life, but caution should be taken not to compress diet too tightly as to alter the physical properties. GEMMA Micro can be put into freezer to extend shelf life close to expire date. Caution should be taken not to freeze with moisture in the bag, or during defrost when moisture can form from condensation.
reload bottle. Do not shake bottle. Mix by inverting bottle several times before feeding tank. Do not store GEMMA Micro in water.
16. Can I use GEMMA Micro in hand feed dispensers, or automatic feeding systems?
