    Description

    Carophyll pink is the most effective colour enhancing food additive that I have come across in my 30+ years of fish keeping.  It is especially effective for red, orange and pink colour fish.  Wether you keep discus, koi, African cichlids, live bearers or anything in between this product will have a positive effect on their red, orange and pink colouration.  A little goes a long way with this product.  The dosage is 1/4 teaspoon per 1lb of food.  I am often asked if this is a hormone and the answer is no.  Carophyll pink's active ingredient is man made astaxanthin which is a carotenoid that occurs naturally in many aquatic organisms such as micro algae, shrimp and krill. This product is manufactured by DSM and contains 10% astaxanthin.
    The discus below is seen here before being fed carophyll pink, 2 weeks after and 4 weeks after.
    This African cichlid was feed my freeze dried black worms with carophyll pink added for two weeks and the colour improvement was dramatic!
