DT's Oyster Eggs

DT's Oyster Eggs

£11.95

Oyster eggs are very small, soft and very nutritious being high in protein and omega 3 fatty acids. Frozen oyster eggs can be dispersed into the water column to feed most small mouthed stony corals, sea fans, gorgonians and soft corals that feed on small particle food. Target feeding with a pipette is also effective. To ensure the complete uptake of the oyster eggs, turning off the protein skimmer for at least an hour when feeding is highly recommended.

Premium Cured Indonesian Live Rock

Premium Cured Indonesian Live Rock

This photo was taken at Calico, and is a typical example of a piece of our rock weighing approximately 4 kilos.

Indonesian rock is very similar to the rock imported from Fiji and Tonga, but it tends to be more porous, making it great value for money. We only ship our most colourful pieces and always supply a variety of shapes and sizes, allowing you to create the perfect aquascape.

Please note that we sell live rock in the shop for £9.00 per kilo. To encourage more online orders, we have discounted it to £8.50 per kilo on our website. Grab yourself a bargain! This offer is not available in store.
