GlasGarten Protein XP

GlasGarten Protein XP: for Growth and Breeding

Have you noticed your shrimp breeding slowing down, or that young shrimp fail to survive the first crucial weeks? Often, a lack of the right building nutrients is to blame. GlasGarten Protein XP is not a standard feed; it is a specialized high-performance formula with 42% protein, specifically developed to compensate for these deficiencies.

Proteins are the foundation of every cell in a shrimp or crayfish. During breeding, the need for protein is particularly high. Females require it to produce healthy eggs, and young shrimp consume enormous amounts of energy as they molt almost daily in the beginning. With Protein XP, you provide the extra fuel they need to successfully get through this vulnerable phase.

Why this feed is essential in a breeding tank

In nature, shrimp constantly find microorganisms and protein-rich food, but in an aquarium this supply can quickly become depleted. Protein XP supplements this with a balanced mix of animal and plant-based proteins.

• Visible results: Supports the development of the “saddle” on the female’s neck area, which indicates an upcoming spawn.
• Higher survival rate: Young shrimp grow faster and stronger, making them less sensitive to fluctuations.
• Optimal absorption: Thanks to added enzymes and amino acids, the proteins are effectively absorbed rather than simply excreted (which also benefits your water quality).
• Natural resistance: Contains beta-glucans and iodine to support trouble-free molting and a strong immune system.

Expert Tip

A common mistake is feeding protein-rich food when water parameters are unstable. Proteins put a significant load on your water. Therefore, use Protein XP as a deliberate “boost.” Do you see females carrying eggs? Then you can feed slightly more often. Is the tank stable and are you simply maintaining the colony? In that case, two to three times per week as a supplement to your staple feed is sufficient.

How to Feed Protein XP

For optimal results, feed once per day an amount that is completely consumed within a few hours. If you use it purely as an extra supplement alongside the regular diet, feeding every 2 to 3 days is sufficient. As it is 100% natural, it is also highly suitable for snails, crayfish, and omnivorous fish that could use an extra boost.

Composition and Ingredients

This feed is packed with high-quality ingredients such as krill, spinach, insects, and decapsulated artemia eggs. It also contains papaya leaves, bee pollen, and kelp to provide a broad spectrum of minerals and vitamins.
