Hey everyone new Indian star keeper here. I have a question about mazuri, I never seem to have any problems with urates until the day after mazuri, then it’s like a white cloud...is mazuri high in protein?? And is this reason enough to discontinue its use? Thanks.

It would take more than one day for urates to be formed, if it was indeed from the Mazuri. I've been feeding Mazuri twice a week to my stars for years, and never had that problem.

I think this is coincidental. Easy to test. Don't feed any Mazuri for a couple of weeks. Then feed it again and see what you get the next soak.
