Nutrition? How important is it to our captive aquatic pets?
Bigtime! Numero uno! The MOST important thing we can provide for our pets!
OK, second to oxygen..... OK, maybe third compared to lethal CO2 levels...maybe just after non toxic ammonia?
In my opinion, I need to consider nutrition as a top priority in my tanks, but it seems to get little air time on public forums. Why? In humans, lack of certain nutrients causes scurvy, deadly hypokalemia and decreased immune function. We all know how important certain nutrients are to our children, and we spend billions on Flintstone vitamins, but when it comes to our reef tanks, we think little of food and essential elements. Do fish and aquatic lifeforms have certain needs, too?
