## Overview

Zoo Med Natural Aquatic Turtle Food Hatchling Formula is a premium 15 oz pellet food designed for hatchling and juvenile aquatic turtles. It features a high-protein, preservative-free formula with 1/8" floating micro pellets that promote healthy growth and easy surface feeding. Scientifically crafted to meet the unique dietary needs of young turtles, it supports rapid development while maintaining tank clarity and freshness.

## Description

The #1 Aquatic turtle food has gone "natural" and is now available in 3 pellet sizes and protein levels (Hatchling, Growth and Maintenance Formulas). Each has been scientifically formulated to meet the dietary requirements of aquatic turtles at each of their life stages. The Hatchling formula is higher in protein to accommodate the rapid growth rates of hatchling and juvenile aquatic turtles. The Growth and Maintenance formulas meet the dietary requirements of growing and adult aquatic turtles. Our pellets float making it easier for aquatic turtles, who prefer eating at the water surface, to locate their food.

Review: Clear Water and Happy Turtles - I switched to Zoo Med Aquatic Turtle Food Growth Formula because my previous brand was constantly clouding the water, and this one does not do that at all. The pellets stay floating and keep the tank clear, which has made upkeep so much easier. Best of all, my turtles love it. They come right up as soon as the pellets hit the water. I also like that it has lower protein levels to support proper shell development and healthy internal organs as they grow. The pellet size is easy for them to eat, and it works well for a variety of aquatic turtles. Made in the USA and formulated with fish oil, this has quickly become our go-to turtle food. I won’t be switching back. 🐢
Review: My turtles love this stuff - I've been purchasing this turtle food for a while now because my turtles really seem to love the taste of it; does not have a strong oder- actually smells good, stays fresh, is not artificially colored, and keeps my turtles healthy. Easy to use; as soon as my turtles see me pick up the jar they swim to the top of the tank waiting for me to throw some in. They don't dirty the tank; they're low priced, but great quality.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product
*by A***A on June 13, 2025*

This has been our go to turtle food. We have a red eared slider and I've cycled through several different types of food, from several pet stores. Ultimately we landed on this one and it worked. He has never had an issue eating, he put on weight and his shell cleaned up. Also, it was the best price on Amazon. 5 stars.
