Description

Fish & Shrimp – Sinking Pellets

These sinking pellets are suitable for shrimp and small to medium community fish, allowing food to reach lower areas of the aquarium where bottom-dwelling livestock naturally feed. The pellets soften and break down more quickly than standard pellets, making them easier to consume while reducing feeding competition.

Due to their faster breakdown, these pellets should be fed in smaller quantities. We recommend feeding much less per serving and offering food up to twice daily only if required. Through extensive in-house testing, we have successfully fed this food to our own livestock, with fish growing strong and healthy when fed responsibly as part of a balanced diet.

Feeding Guidelines & Important Notes

• Feed in very small amounts; pellets break down faster than standard varieties

• Offer only what can be consumed within a short period

• Feeding may be split into smaller portions up to twice daily if necessary

• Adjust feeding based on tank size, livestock density, and filtration

• Avoid overfeeding, as excess food may degrade water quality
