Key Benefits

Woodmites pack essential proteins, fats, and micronutrients into their minuscule 1-2mm bodies, mimicking natural prey to trigger active hunting and reduce stress in small fish and shrimp. Their soft exoskelets digest easily, minimizing waste while promoting healthier digestion and vibrant fins. Non-parasitic and chemical-free, they outperform frozen or powdered feeds without polluting your water.

Easy Cultivation

House the culture in a small ventilated plastic tub with moist hardwood leaf litter, rotting wood chunks, or damp sphagnum moss at 22-28°C room temperature—ideal for Singapore's climate. Mist lightly every 2-3 days to maintain humidity around 70-80%; colonies explode from a starter portion to thousands within 2-4 weeks. Harvest by tapping mites into tank water—no special equipment needed.

Feeding Guide

Rinse a pinch (50-200 mites) directly into your fry tank daily, watching small fish eagerly devour the 1-2mm specks—start with 10-20 per fry to avoid overfeeding. For shrimp or betta fry, scatter over moss or plants for natural foraging. Gut-load mites beforehand with oats or yeast for extra vitamins, ensuring peak nutrition; store extras in the fridge for 1-2 weeks.​

Perfect Match

Tailored for your pleco, shrimp, or recirculating systems, these mites boost breeding success like cherry shrimp colonies. Share excess via Shopee or local groups for profit, just as with propagated plants. Safe, prolific, and beginner-friendly—elevate your aquarium game today!
