RAW INGREDIENT OYSTER FLESH POWDER A naturally mineral-dense whole-food ingredient delivering highly bioavailable calcium, zinc, selenium, iron, and vitamin B12 for optimal aquatic nutrition and growth. 50% Protein Content 80 mg Zinc per 100g 200 mcg Vitamin B12 per 100g NEW: Whole Food Source FEAT: Rich in Zinc & B12 COLD: Bioavailable Minerals ✓ 100% Oyster Flesh ✓ High Bioavailability ✓ Essential Trace Minerals ✓ Fine Powder Format Oyster Flesh Powder is a nutritionally complete marine ingredient produced from 100% oyster flesh — delivering a comprehensive matrix of protein, bioavailable minerals, and essential vitamins in their natural ratios. The whole-flesh composition ensures that calcium, zinc, selenium, and B12 are presented in biologically active forms for superior absorption compared to isolated mineral supplements. WHY IT MATTERS THE DIFFERENCE 🦪 Whole Flesh Matrix Contains 100% oyster flesh — delivering protein, lipids, glycogen, and trace minerals in their natural ratios for optimal bioavailability and nutritional completeness. ⚡ Exceptional Zinc Content With 80 mg of zinc per 100g, this is one of the richest natural zinc sources available — critical for enzyme function, growth hormone production, and immune competence in aquatic species. 🧪 Vitamin B12 Powerhouse Provides 200 mcg of vitamin B12 per 100g — essential for red blood cell formation, neurological function, and DNA synthesis across all aquatic vertebrates. KEY BENEFITS NUTRITIONAL FEATURES Calcium for Skeletal Integrity Bioavailable calcium carbonate supports bone, scale, and exoskeleton development in finfish and crustaceans. Zinc for Growth & Immunity Zinc is a cofactor for over 300 enzymes; adequate supply ensures optimal growth rates and disease resistance. Selenium Antioxidant Defence High selenium levels support glutathione peroxidase activity, protecting cells from oxidative damage. Iron for Oxygen Transport Providing 30 mg iron per 100g, this ingredient supports haemoglobin synthesis and oxygen delivery to tissues. Vitamin B12 for Metabolism Essential for energy metabolism and nervous system function, particularly important in intensive culture systems. Natural Feeding Stimulant Oyster-derived amino acids and nucleotides act as potent feeding attractants, improving feed intake and reducing wastage.

May vary slightly between batches due to natural sourcing. QUESTIONS ANSWERED FREQUENTLY ASKED Q What inclusion rate is recommended for shrimp feeds? For shrimp and prawn feeds, 3–6% inclusion provides excellent mineral supplementation, particularly calcium and zinc needed for moulting and exoskeleton formation. Q Can this be used in freshwater aquarium fish foods? Absolutely. The balanced mineral profile supports strong bone development, vibrant colouration, and robust immune function in freshwater ornamentals including cichlids, livebearers, and goldfish. Q Is this product suitable for live food enrichment? Yes. The fine powder can be used to bioencapsulate minerals in live feeds such as rotifers and Artemia, transferring essential trace elements up the food chain to larvae and fry. Q How should Oyster Flesh Powder be stored? Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture. Keep the bag sealed after opening. Refrigeration is not required but can extend shelf life. Use within 12 months of opening. Q What makes oyster flesh powder different from oyster shell calcium? Oyster shell calcium is primarily calcium carbonate from the shell only. Oyster flesh powder is 100% pure oyster flesh — providing protein, zinc, B12, selenium, and iron alongside calcium in their naturally occurring ratios for superior nutritional value.
