Each stage uses a progressively larger soft crumble matched to how big the fry's mouth has grown, so nutrition stays complete and easy to eat at every stage, for both egg-laying (oviparous) and live-bearing (viviparous) species.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComplete nutrition from birth through to semi-adult stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour crumble sizes (B1–B4) matched to fry growth stages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft crumbles suited to oviparous fry and small viviparous species\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to promote healthy growth and proper feeding habits from day one\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBest Suited For (Fish Species)\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll oviparous fry, plus small viviparous (live-bearing) species such as Guppy, Tangerine, Swordtail, Platy, and Betta fry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStage-by-Stage Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eUse Case\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCrumble Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFirst food for all oviparous fry \u0026amp; some small viviparous species (Guppy, Tangerine, Swordtail)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUnder 0.18mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransition 10–20 days after B1, once fry can accept a bigger crumble\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.2 – 0.4mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOnce fish reach the growth stage B2 was meant for; some B2 can still be mixed in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.4 – 0.6mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAfter B3, once the fish can accept a bigger crumble; sort fry by size first to prevent cannibalism\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.6 – 0.8mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach stage (B1, B2, B3, B4) is available in Pouch (1kg) and Mega Pouch (5kg).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeeding Instructions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWet the feed so it absorbs water before feeding fry.

Sort fry by size before moving up a stage, to help prevent cannibalism among different-sized siblings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGuaranteed Analysis:\u003c\/strong\u003e Crude Protein (min) 52% | Crude Fat (min) 12% | Crude Fibre (max) 1.5% | Crude Ash (max) 13.5% | Moisture (max) 9%\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I know when to move my fry from B1 to B2?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMove to B2 about 10–20 days after starting B1, once the fry have grown large enough to comfortably accept a bigger crumble size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I feed B1 and B2 together?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, during the B2 stage some smaller fry in the same batch may still need B1, so feeding both together is fine until all fry catch up in size.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy do I need to sort fry by size before B3 or B4?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLarger fry can sometimes prey on smaller siblings once they're big enough — sorting by size before each new stage helps prevent this cannibalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this crumble suitable for guppy and betta breeders specifically?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, the B1–B4 range is suitable for guppy fry, betta fry, and other small viviparous and oviparous species from birth through to semi-adult.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy does the feed need to be wetted before feeding fry?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWetting the crumble helps it absorb water and become easier for tiny fry to eat, and helps prevent the dry crumble from expanding uncomfortably in their small stomachs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Intan Growel","offers":[{"title":"1Kg","offer_id":48265157116035,"sku":"lnh1789789885356","price":10.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5Kg","offer_id":48265157148803,"sku":"ejz1789789885357","price":48.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2866\/5475\/files\/intan-breeder-grower-food---b1-slow-sinking-fish-food_1.webp?v=1789789891","url":"https:\/\/discovibeclad.shop\/products\/intan-breeder-grower-food-b1-slow-sinking-fish-food","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
