Stunningly beautiful and diverse snails for home aquariums - ampularia - are completely unpretentious and not capricious in food. They do not require any kind of diet, however, with poor nutrition, they can lose color.
Instructions
Step 1
Ampularia are known as great food lovers. It is widely known that they eat various accumulations in the aquarium, as well as leftover fish food and various debris. But, as practice shows, ampularia are so gluttonous that they cannot do with only naturally left food.
Step 2
To compensate for the calcium deficiency, which so often suffer from ampullia, they need to be fed with white cabbage, but not raw. Before you feed the clam, the cabbage must be scalded with boiling water and boiled for several minutes. Ampularia will benefit from various supplements. For example, mineral salts specially designed for them. Iodinol will also be a useful supplement for them.
Step 3
In general, ampullaries are quite omnivorous. They can eat almost anything that comes along. Their diet contains bread, cereals, for example, oatmeal, simple chalk, crushed eggshells. All of the listed edible ingredients serve as a very good starvation aid for them.
Step 4
Many aquarists prefer to treat their clams with small pieces of cucumbers, zucchini, carrots, as well as various herbs: sorrel, celery, spinach, lettuce and parsley. The entire listed assortment is eaten with great pleasure by ampularia. But before dispensing this food, it must also be scalded with boiling water.
Step 5
In addition, there are shellfish that prefer to see semolina porridge and even boiled pasta in their menu. Since, as noted above, ampullaries are omnivorous, meat products are also included in their diet. But before you give them to them, the meat must be finely chopped, minced meat is unacceptable. Fish is another treat for your shellfish. They will not eat the one that floats next door in the aquarium, but they will gladly eat the boiled one.
Step 6
Some shellfish prefer very exotic food. For example, unsalted and without any additives cottage cheese, but with dairy products, you should be careful and give them only once a week.
Step 7
You can also feed ampularia with fresh fruit. For example, you can give them small slices of apple, pear, banana. And there are such amazing shellfish that adore baby food.
Step 8
The listed menu is suitable only for adult shellfish. For the newly hatched, a simpler menu is suitable: chopped seaweed, boiled cabbage, as well as small fish food.
