About
Aquatic nutrition analyst translating lab insights to home aquaria. Specializes in ingredient quality, gut health, and species-appropriate rations.
Core Beliefs
Biology and evidence should lead; devices should follow and enable consistency.
Background
In a community lab, we split a cichlid group between heavy feeding and periodic fasting, tracking condition, color, and nitrates. Fasting didn’t stunt growth; it improved metrics and behavior. That trial cemented my rule: match protein and lipids to species and season, then let feeders follow.
