Does this food contain live ingredients?

Troubleshooting
Amphibian not eating the pellets.
Ensure you are using the correct pellet size for your amphibian's age and size. Try offering food at a different time of day or slightly reduce the quantity offered at the next feeding to encourage interest. Some amphibians may take time to adapt to new food types.
Water appears slightly cloudy after feeding.
While the formula is designed not to cloud water, this can occasionally happen if too much food is offered and not consumed. Ensure all uneaten food is removed promptly. You may also check your aquarium's filtration system.
Pellets break apart too quickly.
Ensure pellets are stored correctly in a dry environment. If the issue persists, it might indicate older product or ambient humidity affecting the pellets. Try offering them more quickly after moistening slightly if needed.
