Description
xNatural, multi-stage nutrition for aquatic turtles
Zoo Med’s Aquatic Turtle Food Growth Formula offers a natural option designed to meet the needs of turtles across life stages. This 30 oz product line is available in multiple pellet sizes and protein levels, enabling you to tailor feeding as your turtle grows—without switching brands. The emphasis on surface-feeding pellets helps you observe feeding behavior and makes mealtime a calmer, more predictable part of daily care.
Three formulas for different life stages
The Hatchling Growth formula is higher in protein to support juvenile development, while Growth and Maintenance formulas balance protein for growing and mature turtles. All options feature low-protein floating pellets that remain near the water surface, so your pet can locate them with minimal effort.
- Low-protein floating pellets for easy surface feeding
- Great compatibility with many aquatic turtles, including red-eared sliders, painted, spotted, Asian box types, and sidenecks
- Lower protein levels designed to support shell development and healthy internal organs
- Made in the USA
Practical feeding, everyday use
The floating pellets are designed to stay accessible at the waterline, which can help turtles locate their meals quickly and encourage natural feeding habits. With three protein-tier options and multiple pellet sizes, you can adapt feeding as your turtle grows without changing brands.
- Surface-feeding-friendly design reduces search time
- Suitable for hatchlings, juveniles, and adults
- Consistent quality from a trusted US-made product
Note: This overview reflects the product’s stated features. Observe your turtle’s appetite and adjust portions to prevent overfeeding. The product emphasizes natural ingredients and practical feeding, rather than guarantees of outcomes.
