Fish Science Axolotl Food 150g – Insect-Based Sinking Pellets

FS Axolotl Food is a purpose-formulated diet for axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) at every life stage, built around the insect-based nutrition these animals consume in the wild. The 4mm slowly sinking pellets are suited to the axolotl's bottom-feeding behaviour, delivering a high-protein, vitamin-fortified meal without clouding the water with floating pellets.

Insect-Led Formula

The protein base combines Black Soldier Fly and Mealworm meal alongside Herring meal and Salmon oil, replicating the invertebrate-rich diet axolotls naturally prey upon. At 47% protein and 11% oil, the nutritional profile supports healthy growth, tissue repair, and sustained energy across both juvenile and adult animals.
