Artemia is zooplankton used as live food. It has proven to be one of the easiest to prepare and most nutritious feeds available. Feeding artemia results in a high percentage of eating larvae, because it is a moving prey which stimulates your fish to eat.

Premium Artemia GSL is harvested in the Great Salt Lake in Utah, USA. This is the most important source of high quality artemia world wide. The cysts hatch by putting the dry cysts in salt water with sufficient air during 24 hours. For an optimal result it is advised to separate the shells from the nauplii thoroughly before feeding to the fish. Quality is the leading characteristic for Premium Artemia GSL. A constant level of high quality is secured by the world famous Artemia Reference Centre (ARC) in Belgium. Samples of each batch of artemia are sent to the ARC for quality control. Only if the quality meets our standards the batch is released for sale. The high quality level of Premium Artemia GSL ensures an optimum growth in the early life stages of your fish. Coppens International offers a step by step manual to hatch artemia.
