Decapsulated Artimea Capsules
- Decapsulated Artemia Capsules are a popular and convenient fish food choice in aquaculture and aquarium hobbies, especially for fry (baby fish), small fish, and shrimp. They contain brine shrimp eggs (Artemia cysts) that have had their hard outer shell (chorion) chemically removed—making them non-hatching, ready-to-feed, and highly digestible.
- Decapsulated Artemia Capsules are a non-hatching form of brine shrimp eggs, processed to remove their hard outer shells. This makes them safe and nutritious for direct feeding without the hassle of hatching, while retaining all the essential nutrients of live Artemia.
