Algae wafers offer snails with an abundance of essential nutrients, making them highly palatable and easy for snails to digest. Plus, these high-grade wafers have an extended stability period allowing them to remain intact in the tank for as long as 6 hours!
These pellets were specifically created for Plecostomus and other algae feeding bottom feeders, and contain high amounts of vegetable matter and stabilized vitamin C to reduce stress and strengthen immune systems. Quick sinking disc-shaped pellets ensure no cloudiness in aquarium water.

Spirulina and Chlorella Algae
Spirulina and chlorella are both superfood algaes, offering many similar health benefits despite minor differences in their nutrient profiles. Both contain abundant chlorophyll – the pigment responsible for giving plants their green hue – as well as copper for metabolic support.
Spirulina algae are packed with essential vitamins, iron and zinc; plus heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids; the blue-green hue provided by its vibrant phycocyanin pigment also acts as an antioxidant with anti-inflammatory, liver protective and immunity enhancing properties.
Chlorella, on the other hand, can be harvested from warm natural fresh- and saltwater lakes, ponds, streams and rivers and is one of the oldest known life forms on Earth. It contains numerous vitamins and minerals such as riboflavin, Vitamin A, magnesium phosphorus calcium as well as chlorophyll which is abundant along with essential amino acid lysine – making it an excellent source of protein as well as being an abundant source of essential amino acid lysine.
High Levels of Vegetable Matter
These disc-shaped diets were specifically created for hard to feed plecostomus and other algae eaters that can be difficult to feed, using an advanced scientific formula containing premium-select ingredients designed to encourage proper growth and desirable form in herbivorous fishes. They contain higher levels of vegetable matter as well as multiple algaes these algae eaters love as well as stabilized vitamin C for sustained vitamin supply. Furthermore, this unique food sinks quickly while still remaining in shape so less aggressive species have access to its nutrition for extended periods of time.
High-grade raw materials and an innovative disk shape combine to provide optimal acceptance by most tropical fish species, guaranteeing maximum acceptance. If desired, food discs can also be broken into smaller pieces for feeding other algae-eating tropical and marine fish species. It is best to only feed your fish the amount it will completely consume within two (2) hours to avoid overfeeding and waste; rigid quality standards ensure each package meets superior nutritional specifications.
Stabilized Vitamin C
Plecostomus and other algae-eating bottom feeders can be difficult to feed. This specialized disc-shaped diet, high in spirulina and chlorella algae as well as vegetable matter that they crave, was scientifically designed to promote proper growth while supporting immunity health in these finicky herbivores.
Hikari Algae Wafers are premium-select food items containing stabilized Vitamin C to relieve stress and build immunity against disease, as well as their natural green hue derived from pure-cultured spirulina and chlorella cultures. Furthermore, Hikari Algae Wafers won’t dissolve or cloud aquarium water and are safe for both freshwater and saltwater fish aquariums.
Feed only the amount that will be completely consumed within two hours, particularly with bottom feeders such as nocturnal bottom feeders. To achieve optimal results, feed later in the day or evening for optimal results. Algae Wafers may be cut into smaller pieces for feeding other species of tropical and marine fish that feed off of algae.
Natural Green Color
Hikari offers a selection of frozen fish food products designed to meet the nutritional requirements of various aquarium and pond fish species, such as algae wafers, tropical algae wafers and cichlid daily feed. Each product provides essential vitamins and nutrients for specific fish species.
Specifically designed for hard to feed Plecostomus and other algae eating bottom feeders. Packed with high levels of vegetable matter and multiple algaes preferred by these fish. Promotes proper growth and desirable form in most herbivorous species. Disc-shaped algae wafers sink rapidly while still remaining visible on the bottom for easy access by less aggressive species. Packed with stabilized vitamin C for reduced stress levels and to boost immunity against disease; ideal for marine herbivores!
Feed only the amount that your fish will consume within two hours, such as for bottom feeders that tend to be nocturnal. For optimal results, feed later in the day or night for optimal results and remove any uneaten food after each feeding period has ended. These algae wafers may also be broken up and distributed among freshwater or saltwater species to feed on algae-eating organisms.
