Quality matters when purchasing cheap tropical fish food; otherwise, poor-grade options could pose health threats and disease outbreaks for your finned friend.
The flakes included with this product have been specially created to soften and sink gradually in water, so all levels of fish can consume them without overfeeding causing digestive distress or bloat. This prevents overfeeding that could otherwise cause problems such as indigestion and bloat for your pet.

Petsmart Shrimp & Shrimp Pellets
If your tank features bottom feeder fish such as guppies or tetras, these micro pellets will work wonders for them. Packed with nutrients and designed to bring out their colors, these slow-sinking pellets make a fantastic food source. Furthermore, these slow sinking pellets make an excellent option for neon tetras or silver dollars in your aquarium that require bottom feeding foods like these micro pellets.
Flake food remains a popular choice for aquarists as its easily dissolving qualities make it appealing to even finicky fishes. Unfortunately, overfeeding may result in cloudy water as overfeeding leads to cloudiness; overfeeding may also cause cloudiness from too much food entering the aquarium, potentially resulting in impactions or blockages in Guppies (a common issue) if they’re not handled appropriately.
If you want to avoid these issues, pre-soaking your flakes before feeding them to your guppies or tetras may help. Simply put some pellets into a small bowl of water and wait for them to become fully immersed before pouring them directly into your aquarium.

Packed with ProCare vitamin blend to provide your cichlids with an ideal balanced diet to promote health color and vitality, they’re highly digestible too, meaning more of its nutrients reach their intended destinations instead of simply ending up back in your aquarium water.
