bee pollen = Vit A, B, C, D, E.
feed your fish well, you will be adding all those to the tank daily from the fish food. |

sure, it also contains all 8 essential Amino acids [which I would not add all to my reef, corals cant break down long chained AAs and they would just degrade water] it also contains 25% proteins.
it also contains over 28 minerals, 11 enzymes, and 14 different fatty acids. here are some Phyto-chemicals in it : Flaxoxanthine (this helps give pollen its golden yellow color) Xanthophyll epixide Carotene Epiphasic carotenoids Flavonoids, Ethylic ether, Quercetin (bioflavonoid), Zeaxathin (is a strong antioxidant substance) and Lycopene (which is probably why pollen is proving very effective for prostate issues) yes, its mother natures multu vitamine, I dont think for corals though |
