AminOmega - 60 ml

Brightwell Aquatics AminOmega is a concentrated nutritional supplement formulated to enrich prepared and live foods for marine fish and reef invertebrates. It supplies marine-derived amino acids and omega-3 and omega-6 highly unsaturated fatty acids, commonly known as HUFAs.

The formula combines hydrolyzed marine protein, marine lipids from fish and crustacean sources, and important vitamins. These nutrients support the formation and repair of body tissue while increasing the nutritional value of frozen, pellet, liquid, and live foods.

AminOmega is particularly useful when enriching the diets of marine fish receiving limited or nutritionally incomplete foods. Brightwell also identifies it as suitable for fish showing tissue deterioration around the face or lateral line associated with nutritional deficiencies. AminOmega is a nutritional supplement and is not presented as a medication or treatment.

The concentrated formula should be absorbed into food before feeding. Do not add AminOmega directly to aquarium water, and avoid overdosing because excess oils and nutrients may negatively affect water quality.

Prepared or Frozen Food

1. Place the portion of food in a clean bowl or cup.
2. Add only enough AminOmega to saturate the food.
3. Allow the food to soak for at least five minutes so the supplement can be absorbed.
4. Feed the enriched food to the aquarium inhabitants.

Liquid Food Suspensions

1. Add 0.5 mL—approximately four drops—of AminOmega per 10 mL of liquid food.
2. Stir thoroughly.
3. Allow the mixture to stand for at least five minutes before feeding.
4. For maximum benefit, target-feed the enriched suspension to the intended animals instead of pouring it randomly into the aquarium.

Live Food

1. Place the required portion of live food—such as rotifers, daphnia, or brine shrimp—in a clean container without water circulation.
2. Add one drop of AminOmega per quart of water in the container.
3. Stir gently to distribute the droplets.
4. Allow the organisms to consume the supplement for 20–40 minutes.
5. Collect the live food using a fine-mesh net.
6. Gently rinse the organisms with a small amount of fresh water.
7. Feed them to the aquarium inhabitants immediately.

Begin with a conservative amount. After several months, the quantity used to enrich liquid foods may be increased by as much as 50% if desired, provided water quality is closely monitored and maintained.

Do not add AminOmega directly to aquarium water. Do not overdose.

An Oily Film Appears on the Water

Too much AminOmega may have been used, or the supplement may have been added directly to the aquarium. Reduce the quantity and apply it only to food. Make sure the food absorbs the supplement before feeding.

Water Quality Begins to Deteriorate

Reduce the amount or frequency of enriched food and remove uneaten food promptly. Check nitrate, phosphate, dissolved organics, protein-skimmer performance, and mechanical filtration. AminOmega is concentrated and should not be overdosed.

The Supplement Does Not Absorb Into Food

Place the food in a clean container and add only enough AminOmega to saturate it. Mix when appropriate and allow at least five minutes for absorption before feeding.

Fish Are Not Eating the Enriched Food

Begin with a smaller amount so the supplement does not significantly change the food’s texture or scent. Gradually increase the amount if the fish accept it and water quality remains stable.

No Immediate Improvement Is Visible

AminOmega is a nutritional supplement, not a medication. Tissue condition and appearance may improve gradually with a balanced long-term diet. Do not increase the dose excessively in an attempt to produce faster results.

Live Food Is Not Taking Up the Supplement

Place the live food in a clean container without water circulation, use one drop per quart, distribute it gently, and allow 20–40 minutes for enrichment.

The Product Has Separated

Marine lipids may separate during storage. Shake the bottle thoroughly before measuring or applying the supplement.

Q: What is Brightwell Aquatics AminOmega?
A: It is a concentrated food-enrichment supplement containing marine-derived amino acids, omega-3 and omega-6 HUFAs, marine proteins, and vitamins.

Q: Is AminOmega added directly to the aquarium?
A: No. Brightwell instructs users to apply it to prepared, liquid, or live food. Adding the concentrated product directly to aquarium water may reduce water quality.

Q: What types of food can be enriched?
A: AminOmega may be used with frozen, pellet, prepared, liquid, and live foods such as rotifers, daphnia, and brine shrimp.

Q: How do I use AminOmega with frozen or prepared food?
A: Place the food in a clean container, add only enough AminOmega to saturate it, and allow at least five minutes for absorption before feeding.

Q: How much should I use with liquid food?
A: Add 0.5 mL—approximately four drops—per 10 mL of liquid food. Mix and allow it to stand for five minutes before feeding.

Q: How do I enrich live food?
A: Add one drop per quart of holding water and allow the live food to consume the supplement for 20–40 minutes. Strain, gently rinse, and feed immediately.

Q: Which animals can benefit from AminOmega?
A: It is intended primarily for marine fish but may also enrich foods offered to corals, clams, crustaceans, and other reef invertebrates.

Q: Does AminOmega treat head and lateral line erosion?
A: No medicinal claim is made. The manufacturer identifies AminOmega as a nutritional supplement for diets that may be deficient in amino acids and essential fatty acids, including diets offered to fish showing signs of tissue deterioration.

Q: Does AminOmega need refrigeration?
A: No. Store it in a cool, shaded location. Refrigeration may extend the stability and shelf life of the formula.

Q: Does AminOmega contain shark-derived ingredients?
A: No. The manufacturer states that it contains no shark-derived ingredients.

Q: Can AminOmega affect water quality?
A: Yes, if it is overdosed or poured directly into the aquarium. Apply it only to food, begin conservatively, remove uneaten food, and monitor water quality.

Q: How quickly should results appear?
A: Nutritional support generally requires consistent feeding over time. Avoid overdosing in an attempt to accelerate changes.
