- Description
Give the aquatic turtle in your care a daily diet built around their grown-up needs, and the Zoo Med Aquatic Turtle Food Maintenance Formula makes that wonderfully simple. This is the Maintenance Formula in the larger 24 oz size, the pellet level Zoo Med designed for growing and adult aquatic turtles rather than the higher-protein Hatchling stage meant for rapid early growth. Zoo Med calls this their #1 aquatic turtle food, now gone natural, so you can feel good about exactly what goes into the water at each meal. Best of all, the pellets float, which suits turtles who like to feed right at the surface where they naturally look for food.
Why turtle keepers reach for this 24 oz Maintenance Formula:
- Scientifically formulated by Zoo Med for the dietary requirements of growing and adult aquatic turtles, so it matches the maintenance stage of life.
- Part of a thoughtful three-formula system (Hatchling, Growth, and Maintenance), letting you step up to this level as your turtle matures past the early stages.
- Floating pellets make the food easy for surface-feeding turtles to locate, so less drifts down unused and feeding stays tidy.
- The generous 24 oz size gives you a lasting supply for regular daily feeding, handy for a larger turtle or a longer-running routine.
- Made with recognizable ingredients including fish meal and fish oil, as listed by Zoo Med for this formula.
- Includes kale among the ingredients, adding plant matter to the recipe.
- Calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate both appear on the ingredient list for this formula.
- Soybean meal and corn gluten meal round out the recipe as Zoo Med describes it.
- Pellet size is matched to the maintenance level rather than the smaller hatchling pellets.
- Proudly made in the USA, as noted in the product tags.
Feeding your aquatic turtle should feel like a comfortable part of the daily routine, not a guessing game. With the Maintenance Formula in the larger 24 oz size, you have a steady, surface-friendly staple sized for the adult and growing turtles in your home. Keep it on the shelf, scoop with confidence, and let your turtle do what comes naturally at the top of the tank.
