Tropical Micro Pellets Tetra,Barbs and Small-Mouthed Fish Food For All Life Stages, 22g

Hikari Micro Pellets are an exceptional premium choice for anyone keeping small-mouthed tropical fish like Tetras, Barbs, Guppies, or Danios. The granule size is incredibly tiny, making it effortless for small fish and even fry to eat without struggling. With a high 43% protein content sourced from quality krill and cuttlefish meals, it delivers visible growth and energy boosts to fish that might look a bit skinny initially. The performance in the water column is ideal for a mixed tank. The pellets sink slowly, which allows surface feeders, middle-column swimmers, and bottom dwellers to all get a fair share before the food settles. Another massive plus is color enhancement; within a couple of weeks of daily feeding, the natural vibrant colors of neon tetras and guppies brighten up noticeably. Because it is packed with dense nutrition, fish leave absolutely no trace behind, keeping the aquarium water clear and free of rotting debris. It does carry a slight, pungent fishy odor when you open the pouch, and it sits at a slightly higher price point for a 22g pack, but the premium health benefits and premium ingredients make it fully worth the investment.

Hikari never dissapoints. 43% protein with high quality krill and cuttlefish meals. Good for tetras, barbs, danios, rasboras. Very small granule, ideal for smaller tropical dither fishes. A bit costly but totally worth it. Fishes love it

This is my first purchase of HIKARI MICRO PELLETS, but i already had good results using hikari bio gold plus for my flowehorn. My RED SWORD TAILS. These little ones are with me for more than eight years, may be the fifth generations now, So i take efforts to get good quality fish food for my little pets. I am sharing my first hand impression of this fish food. WHAT I LIKED: 1)The micro pellets are really micro pellets as described, smaller than the mini pellets from brands like Osaka green and optimum red pellets. Slightly bigger than the hikari fancy guppy which bought a week before in local pet store. 2) Dark red in colour with strong fishy smell than any other fish food I have already used. I am not surprised about my fish accepting it in the first serve itself, because mine is not picky eaters, they eat what ever comes in, but the speed at which they consumed says that they like the flavour. The size is perfect for 2 month old fry to adults. My fish comfortably swallowed it with ease. 3)No wastages, no fatalities. I can't comment on water clouding because I have not over fed to see wastages. 4)The protein content is 43%, sure a good one to raise healthy pets. WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: 1)These pellets sink very quickly, floats just below two minutes, the smallest vibration due to fish rushing for food will make it sink, so I switch off the air pump for 15 minutes to make it comfortable to feed on. 2) These pellets can't be scooped out, in case of accidentally feeding in excess. 3)The most important thing is, it is too expensive for 22g. MRP is around 550, I bought it for 309. I am happy I received a latest stock. Shelf life is 2 years. Even for the quality and Protein content, I feel this is much expensive when compared to other locally available fish foods which only costs around 70 per 100g. 4) I have around 50 plus nos of swordtails altogether, both in my office and home, so quantity vs pricing is not pocket friendly. I didn't rate 5 stars for these reasons. My verdict about this fish food is, I am quite happy and satisfied trying this food as of now. This is definitely a quality fish food for community tanks with small mouthed fish like swords, guppy, tetras, molly, angel, etc, if pricing is not a concern. OTHER FISH FOOD DIETS I AM USING: I always train my pets to accept varied mixed diets from different brands. I feed high protein content fish food (40% plus protein) as well as low protein content food (below 30%). My present fish foods consists of hikari fancy guppy, hikari micro pellets, optimum mini pellets, Osaka green, and hikari first bites for just borns, which I feed very little near the live plants. I feed live blood worms, before doing partial water change. NEVER OVER FEED. TRY VERY SMALL AMOUNT INITIALLY TO KNOW HOW QUICK THE FISH CONSUMES. Hope it helps.

Food is good as I am feeding 1 inch small guppies n barb and one fry...they are active and like this food....also I could good growth in fry. But has lil foul smell which is acceptable because it's not a fresh veggies or human food!

Hikari has done it once again with their mico pellets. It has given my neon tetra some serious gains that they needed since they were very skinny when I got them from a local fish store. They are slow sinking and fish from different sections of your tank can enjoy with our any problem. The fish that feed from the surface, water column and the bottom, it satisfies them all.

I m newbie when it comes to petting fishes. My daughter recently got an aquarium as gift and it came with some locally packed fish food (pellets). First 10 days the fishes (Mollys, guppys and tetras) nibbled only the live plant in the water. Next when I introduced this product, they simply loved it. Now they eagerly wait for food. Seriously!! Absolutely no trace left, so no mess. I also observed that their colors have brightened up in last one week. Awesome product.

Good and healthy food for fishes

Excellent product

Cool perfect food

Not a nice product and too costly

I pesci lo mangiano molto bene, i pellets sono di giuste dimensioni per dei platy ma anche per degli endler.... per quanto riguarda il marchio Hikari è probabilmente uno dei migliori al mondo per mangimi in acquariofilia

Excellente nourriture pour mes microfish (rasboras, killis clown). Super qualité, rien à redire.

Excelente produto
