Just a question dont take this the wrong way here.
Why is this a better feeding strategy that say feeding Marine Flake in the morning, Aegis Type 1 in the afternoon and Aegis Type 2 in the Evening

Hi
It is to make sure the fish have complete nutrional variety. By having a seperated feeding strategy over such a long period of time you are giving the fish a formula that provides not only the right balanced diet but also variance of a long period. Of course that is not touching on the more important detailed bio-nutrional info, so I will ask New era to add to the above also. Last edited by Aqua-Digital; 01-16-2011 at 01:34 PM. |

The reason there is the large gap between the diets is because of the individual ingredients in the type 1 and 2 diets. They are designed to be fed for 2 weeks to get the best effect from the ingredients and the a break of 6 weds whilst they work within the fish. Whilst there is nothing particularly wrong with what you suggest, you would probably not see the full benefits. Hope that helps! Andy |

To follow on from this, Peter Kersh the managing Director of New Era emailed with this follow up
"The products have been evaluated by Aberdeen University and using them in the way we have described increases immune resistance by 30%. Each of the immuno-stimulants used in Aegis (we use Beta glucans in one and bio-flavenoids in the other) needs to be used for a continuous period to obtain best resistance and so to use them only over the course of a day would not work. So, our recommendation is 4 weeks marine, 2 weeks Aegis I and 2 weeks Aegis II" |
