New Life Spectrum Probiotix Small 60g — Probiotic micro-pellets for nano fish, small tetras and juveniles
Tiny mouths get little from a coarse pellet, and in a small tank anything left uneaten shows up in the water within days. New Life Spectrum Probiotix Small 60g (SKU: 102612) is the 60 g jar of New Life Spectrum’s probiotic daily food in its smallest pellet, a 0.5 to 0.75 mm sinking granule for small freshwater and marine fish. Each gram carries three million or more living, viable probiotic cultures, a figure the maker says is lab verified, from a Bacillus blend (B. licheniformis, B. pumilus and B. subtilis) and Pediococcus acidilactici. A process the maker calls cold re-extrusion locks the cultures inside the pellet rather than on its surface, so fewer wash off before the food is eaten.
Underneath the probiotics is the Thera+A version of the Spectrum Nutrition Formula, led by whole Antarctic krill, giant squid, whole wheat flour, whole menhaden and garlic, with omega-3 fish oil, several seaweeds, spirulina and ginger. New Life Spectrum’s claims for the cultures are better nutrient absorption in the gut, giving healthier fish and less, cleaner waste, and a blend of phosphate-consuming bacteria that keeps working in the water and filter. At 60 g the jar suits a single nano or small community tank, or a first trial before a larger pack.
Usage & Application
When to Use
- Nano and desktop tanks: Chilli rasboras, small tetras, endlers and other fish with tiny mouths.
- Juvenile fish: Young fish past powdered fry food but not yet ready for a 1 mm pellet.
- Small marine fish: Gobies, small clownfish and other nano-reef fish that take sinking food.
- Low-volume systems: Where cleaner waste and lower phosphate make a visible difference.
Feeding Guide
- Twice a day: Only what is eaten within about a minute, per the range’s directions.
- A pinch, not a scoop: A 0.5 mm granule goes a long way; start with a few grains per fish.
- Feed where they swim: The granules sink, so drop them where small fish can catch them falling.
- Close the jar: Seal it after every feed and keep it cool and dry to protect the live cultures.
