Brine Shrimp Direct PhytoDisc Plus Spirulina Algae Wafers - 16 oz

Overview

Brine Shrimp Direct PhytoDisc Plus Spirulina Algae Wafers are a water-stable, sinking diet designed for bottom-dwelling fish. The formula is well suited for plecostomus, pacu, catfish, and other herbivorous or omnivorous species that forage along the tank floor. The wafers hold their shape as they descend, helping grazing fish access their meal without rapid breakup in current.

What sets this product apart is the thoughtful blend of spirulina, kelp, krill meal, and yeast. These ingredients work together to deliver a natural pigment profile and a rich nutrient matrix. While outcomes can vary, the mix is described as highly digestible and includes beta-glucans from yeast and other components, which some aquarists view as a desirable part of a varied diet.

Key benefits

• Sinking wafers reach bottom-dwelling herbivores and omnivores, matching their grazing behavior.
• Water-stable formulation resists quick disintegration, helping minimize floating particles.
• Highly digestible blend with spirulina, kelp, krill meal, and yeast for a balanced nutrient profile.
• Product of the USA, reflecting domestic production standards.

What you might notice in your aquarium

As the wafers descend, your bottom-dwelling fish may engage with the food, offering a steady feeding opportunity for herbivores and omnivores alike. The spirulina and kelp components can contribute subtle color and a plant-based flavor profile that some species respond to during grazing.

Usage guidance emphasizes small portions that the fish can consume in a few minutes, supporting stable water quality while you establish a routine for your tank residents.

How to use

• Feed small portions—enough for your fish to consume within a few minutes—to maintain water quality.
• Place wafers on the tank bottom so they sink to invite grazing fish access.
• Store in a cool, dry place to preserve texture and freshness. Product of the USA origin is noted on the label.
• Ideal for regular feeding routines with herbivorous and omnivorous bottom feeders.
