Feeding Instructions
This food is formulated for aquatic turtles with a minimum shell length of 2 inches or larger. Open container and spoon out 1 level teaspoon of food per turtle. Let turtles feed for a minimum of 1 hour. Remove any uneaten food after 1 hour. (Note: The floating cranberries can be left in the tank as some aquatic turtles take time to develop a taste for them.) If your turtles eat all of their food in a short time, you may want to increase the food amount to 1 level tablespoon, per turtle, or more per feeding. Feed turtles every other day (four times per week). Do not overfeed your turtles.
For Adult turtles (7 inches and larger), supplement with Zoo Med Natural Aquatic Turtle Food - Maintenance Formula.
