Tropical Biorept Supreme Adult Turtle Food 100ml / 28g

Tropical Biorept Supreme Adult is a probiotic-enriched, soft-textured food formulated specifically for adult semi-aquatic turtles. It covers a wide range of commonly kept species including Trachemys, Pseudemys, Mauremys, Ocadia, Malaclemys, Clemmys, Kinosternon, Sternotherus, and Claudius — making it a well-considered choice for keepers who want a diet that genuinely reflects the nutritional demands of adult chelonians.

Ingredients & Palatability

The formulation draws on shrimp (8%), krill (2%), and squid (3%) for a strong fish and crustacean aroma that encourages feeding. Hermetia illucens (black soldier fly) larvae contribute essential amino acids alongside calcium and phosphorus in a naturally occurring ratio, while narrowleaf plantain and dandelion add beneficial plant compounds that support overall health.

Probiotic Support

Each batch includes Bacillus subtilis, a well-documented probiotic strain that works to stabilise intestinal microflora. The practical benefits for keepers are meaningful: improved nutrient utilisation, reduced faecal odour, and less waste-driven water pollution in the enclosure.

Nutrition & Shell Health

• Protein, fat, and fibre levels optimised for the lower metabolic demands of adult semi-aquatic turtles
• Calcium to phosphorus ratio of 2:1 — the standard recommended for chelonian bone and shell development
• Added vitamins, micro-, and macroelements to prevent nutritional deficiencies including rickets
• Astaxanthin included to support and enhance natural colouration

Texture & Natural Feeding Behaviour

The soft texture is designed to replicate the consistency of prey items turtles encounter naturally, which can make it easier to introduce to animals that are selective or slow to accept dry pellet foods. It can also serve as a supplementary food for large omnivorous fish kept in the same or separate systems.

Available in a 100ml / 28g container, Tropical Biorept Supreme Adult gives keepers a well-rounded, species-appropriate diet backed by specific ingredient choices rather than broad nutritional claims.
