Daphnia, popularly known as water fleas, are small crustaceans that live in fresh water such as ponds, lakes, and streams. They serve as an important source of aquatic food. Feeding live Daphnia results in a remarkable improvement in the appearance, health and longevity of fish and other aquatic organisms. They mature in just a few days, so it does not take long to grow a stable culture.

They provide two primary vitamins that are of vital importance to fish — vitamins A and D. Vitamin A is essential for the growth and development of fish, and it also serves as an excellent anti-infective agent. Vitamin D is primarily responsible for the production of bone, and all vertebrates are therefore dependent on it. Daphnia also offer small amounts of vitamins B and C, which vary in quantity depending on what foods the Daphnia have consumed. Vitamin B supports tissue growth and stimulates appetite. Vitamin C aids in skin formation and coloration. Finally, Daphnia provide protein, carbohydrates (sugars and starches) and fats.

There are numerous advantages to offering Daphnia in comparison to a diet consisting exclusively of dried foods. Dried foods typically lack essential vitamins. Daphnia provide the necessary vitamins in proportionally balanced quantities. Because they are a live food, Daphnia activate a fish's instinct to hunt. Overfeeding Daphnia to aquarium fish will not pollute aquarium water because they will live until eaten later on. There are no difficult or costly requirements needed to cultivate Daphnia to adulthood.

Preparation and Feeding

All live foods should be rinsed before feeding -Before you use plaese first add some Water from fishtank or enviroment where you will be keep it or use IT for adapt daphnia to your enviroment. After this should be drained from the water they were transported in and placed in water from the aquarium for a few minutes. This will help to clean and prepare them.

 Watching the difference in behaviour at feeding times with live food and watching your fish hunt around long afterwards adds an extra dimension to the already enjoyable past time of sitting down and watching your fish.
