Yes, Phosphorus is represented.

Some chemical elements translation:
K: Kalium
Fe: Ferrum (iron)
Na: Natrium (sodium)
P: Phosphorus
Cu: Cuprum (copper)
Mn: Manganese
Zn: Zinc

Hope this helps.

FYI, kangkung is a vegetable commonly considered as turtle's food here
in Indonesia. However, I'd like to know the analysis from y'all here :)

kemul>>do you give them kangkung too?

I assume it is okay because it's a common food in our country.... We need second opinion here

I think it should be alright. I haven't fed Ramen kangkung yet, only pellets daily
considering Ramen's still a hatchling. I will try more veggies in about 8 months
time (when Ramen's close to 1 year old).

Yes, we need second opinion :)
