Cyclop-eeze Freezerbar Review

Submitted by AquariumsLife.com on January 4, 2010 – 8:56 amNo Comment

Cyclop-eeze FreezerbarDESCRIPTION
Cyclop-eeze is a unique form of zooplankton, one of the many types of copepods found throughout the earth’s waters. It is unique from other copepods in that the habitat Cyclop-eeze are “farmed” in, is unlike any other, producing a species which has superior nutrition compared to similar organisms. The icy cold arctic salt lake which these organisms have evolved in has provided Cyclop-eeze with exceptional levels of the important fatty acids (Omega 3) which are so benefical to aquatic life (especially Marine organisms). EPA 11.7% and DHA of 11.09% levels are amongst the highest found in a non-algae source. The brief growth and reproduction season of arctic life has allowed this organism to develop with multiple generational resting eggs, providing an uncommon intergenerational gene pool mixing.
Cyclop-eeze will feed on rich algae biomass accumulating intense levels of the pigment Astaxanthene proportionally to how much they ingest.(levels of between 3000ppm and 7000ppm are found) Astaxanthin is an excellent color enhancing pigment but also a valuable antioxident providing immune system support. Cyclop-eeze are harvested when nutrional value is highest and immediately deep frozen to preserve this natural highly enriched state. This provides a more nutritious feed product than many live collected planktonic organisms since these type of organisms quickly lose much nutrition if thay are not continuously feeding from harvest to end use.

REVIEW
I just bought a 3oz bar to give a try to this product. My fish love it! I don’t see that kind of feeding frenzy in my tanks really often. From all the food I tried, Cyclop-eeze Freezerbar is by far the one my fish enjoyed the most. I would recommend it for any plankton feeder (it’s really small: Average Body Length 800um).
If you try this product, only feed small

portion at the time because it’s easy to overfeed.

My fish love it but I wanted to make sure this is a good food for them. It contains Astaxanthene, HUFA, Betaine and many other things I know nothing about. Here is what I found about all that:

Astaxanthene is an excellent color enhancer and will ensure that your fish display its magnificent colors to the fullest extent. It counters the immuno-suppressive effects of stress (its one of the best countermeasures for fish disease). Additionally, Astaxanthene is very rich in anti-oxidants and is very helpful for maintaining optimum health.

HUFA (highly unsaturated fatty acids) is the good type of fat used to provide essential omega 3 fatty acids required for finfish. It also optimizes growth and is ideal for growth and development of larvae and juveniles. It’s a must for the success of fry fish and the assurance of a long life for adults.

Betaine is a potent attractant, stimulant, and incitant that assures maximum feed response and feeding rate.
