Freshwater Multipack
San Francisco Bay Brand Freshwater Multipack
Some foods can’t be served up in flake or pellet form without losing some of their delectable taste and flavor. Unfortunately it’s not possible to ship them live either, so freezing them is the next best option. Although a bit more expensive than dry foods, frozen foods are an excellent supplemental food, or specialty food when feeding fry or fussy eaters.

1) San Francisco Bay Brand Freshwater Multipack

What I like about this package is the fact that it offers four different foods that appeal to a wide range of fish. Included are: Discus Delight, Emerald Entrée, Bloodworms and Spirulina-enriched Brine Shrimp.

2) Brine Shrimp Plus

An excellent brine shrimp product that has been blended seafood, plankton and algae. There isn't a fish around that will turn down shrimp.

3) San Francisco Bay Brand Community Menu

Instead of separate cubes of different foods, as offered in the multipack, these are a blend of several foods in each cube. An excellent way to offer a variety of foods in a single feeding.

4) Jack Wattley Discus Formula

Jack Wattley, who is a world recognized Discus breeder, has developed an outstanding Discus formula. It contains garlic, which aids in reducing intestinal parasites. Available in frozen cubes, it even appeals to the fussiest of eaters.

5) San Francisco Bay Brand Bloodworms

One thing all fish have in common is that they enjoy a good worm. When it comes to frozen foods SF Bay is top notch, and these frozen bloodworms are no exception. Look for the cubes, as they are easier to dispense.

6) San Francisco Bay Brand White Mosquito Larvae

In nature many fish eat a diet that is high in mosquito larvae. White Mosquito Larvae (aka: glassworms) make an excellent treat for any aquarium fish.

7) San Francisco Bay Brand Brine Shrimp

San Francisco Bay has long been the top of the line in frozen brine shrimp. Available in cubes and flats of various sizes. Frozen foods don't always ship well during the summer months. Price what you want online then check your local pet shop to see if they carry it.
