Vitalis Aquatic Nutrition LPS Coral Pellets (60g)
The Ultimate Targeted Nutrition for Large Polyp Stony Corals
Give your reef the specialized care it deserves with Vitalis LPS Coral Pellets. Designed to mimic the natural suspended particulate matter found in deep-sea reef environments, these pellets provide a complete and balanced diet for corals that rely heavily on direct feeding rather than photosynthesis alone.
Product Overview
Large Polyp Stony (LPS) corals often thrive in deeper waters where sunlight is limited. Vitalis has engineered a unique 1.5mm soft, sinking pellet that stimulates a natural feeding response, ensuring your corals receive a high-energy, nutrient-dense meal that is easy to capture and digest.
Key Features & Benefits

-
Soft & Highly Digestible: The unique soft texture allows for easy ingestion and maximum nutrient absorption, mimicking the natural prey of LPS corals.
-
Reduced Waste: Highly palatable ingredients ensure more food is eaten and less is left to decay, helping to maintain superior water quality.
-
Sustainably Sourced: Made with high-quality, natural ingredients including fish, molluscs, and crustaceans.
-
Vibrant Color & Growth: Packed with essential vitamins, minerals, and astaxanthin to enhance natural pigmentation and support skeletal development.
Ideal For:
This formula is perfected for a wide range of LPS species, including:

Feeding Instructions
For best results, feed every other day:
-
Target Feed: Use a pipette or feeding tongs to place a few pellets directly onto the oral disc (mouth) of the coral.
-
Observe: Watch as the coral expands its feeding tentacles to envelop the pellets.
-
Flow: Ensure there is sufficient water flow to carry away any minor waste particles after feeding is complete.
-
Note: Do not overfeed and avoid putting wet fingers directly into the container to maintain product freshness.
