Versatility
Fish food comes in various forms to create a well-rounded diet for aquatic pets. Flakes and pellets both offer unique advantages for different kinds of aquatic creatures.
Flake foods are ideal for small tropical fish species that prefer feeding at the surface or mid-level of a tank, such as those that prefer feeding on floating objects in shallow tanks. Their lightweight nature means that flakes do not quickly settle to the bottom, making them suitable for shallow tanks with limited depth.
Flakes are also very flexible, often providing your fish with a balanced mix of proteins, fats and carbohydrates to create an ideal diet. Some flakes even include vitamins and minerals fortification to ensure your fish receives all the essential nutrition.
Flakes come packaged in canisters, jars or boxes with snap or screw lids to maintain freshness of food for your fish. However, these products don’t last as long and should be consumed within six months after opening to minimize loss of nutrient value.
