Description
Description
Springtail Boost food is a combination of the favorite foods of captive-bred springtails. Springtail Boost contains four simple high-quality ingredients: rice flour, active dry yeast, brewer's yeast, and lion's mane mushroom powder. This food is appropriate for springtails on substrate, clay, and charcoal. Orange and Red springtails prefer fish food flakes and not this blend.
Recommended feeding: Feed one very tiny pinch of Springtail Boost twice weekly. DO NOT overfeed. Overfeeding will cause mold and CO2 build up. Springtails are very small, and they do not require a lot of food. If food remains after 48 hours, too much food was provided. We like to take a pinch of Springtail Boost and then release the food back into the bag and then sprinkle whatever food is left on our fingers into the springtail culture. It should be an extremely light dusting.
Springtail Boost comes in a resealable pouch. We agree that shaker bottles are convenient, but unfortunately, it's difficult to control the amount of food that comes out of the bottle, and too much food is fed to the springtails and mold is often the result.
