Why Scuds Are the Best Live Fish Food

Live scuds are one of the best live fish foods in Canada for bettas, cichlids, puffers, fry, and breeding fish. These freshwater amphipods trigger natural hunting behaviour, support growth and colour, and can reproduce into a long-lasting food culture.

Triggers Natural Hunting Response

Live scuds trigger natural feeding behavior for healthier, more active fish.

Boosts growth + color

Nutrient-rich live food supports faster growth, stronger conditioning, and better color.

Perfect for Bettas, Cichlids, and Puffers

Ideal for carnivorous and aggressive fish that thrive on live prey, especially during conditioning and breeding.

Reproduces Quickly for Ongoing Live Food

A healthy scud culture can reproduce fast, giving you a steady source of fresh live food.
