Care should be taken to avoid over-feeding and always remove uneaten food after feeding period.

Composition & Analysis

Guaranteed analysis: crude protein min. 33.0%, crude fat min. 4.0%, crude fibre max. 3.0%, moisture max. 10.0%, ash max. 17.0%, phosphorus max. 0.8%. Vitamin A min. 8,700 IU/kg, vitamin D3 min. 1,300 IU/kg, vitamin E min. 1,700 IU/kg, ascorbic acid min. 190 mg/kg.

Ingredients: fish meal, wheat flour, wheat germ meal, cassava starch, dried bakery product, dried seaweed meal, alfalfa nutrient concentrate dehydrated, dehydrated alfalfa meal, brewers dried yeast, soybean meal, fish oil, krill meal, spirulina, garlic, DL-methionine, chlorella, astaxanthin, choline chloride, vitamin E supplement, L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (stabilized vitamin C), inositol, d-calcium pantothenate, riboflavin, vitamin A supplement, thiamine mononitrate, pyridoxine hydrochloride, niacin, folic acid, vitamin D3 supplement, biotin, disodium phosphate, ferrous sulfate, magnesium sulfate, zinc sulfate, manganese sulfate, copper sulfate, calcium iodate.

Note that phosphorus is a maximum here rather than a minimum, which matters if you are fighting algae in the display while feeding an algae eater. Spirulina and chlorella are both present, and the wafer is bound to hold its shape rather than dissolve, which is what lets a slow bottom feeder finish it.

Pack Size

250 g tub (Hikari #21328). Also made in 20 g, 40 g, 82 g and 1 kg.

250 g is the size for a tank with several plecos or a serious herbivore load. For one bristlenose, a 40 g or 82 g tub is a year’s feeding and will still be fresh at the end of it.
