Ive been told feeding pelleted food is better for my fish than feeding flake food, why?
HikariĀ® diets are developed specifically to meet the nutritional needs of the fish they are meant to feed. Pelleted food by design is more compacted, providing more nutrition in the same amount of space, therefore care should be taken when comparing pricing on flake food versus pelleted food. In most cases, your best value is a pelleted food. Additionally, pelleted foods typically float. This allows the user to monitor the amount of food they are feeding and remove any food not consumed by the fish within a specific period of time. This helps eliminate over-feeding and the water quality problems and the diseases associated with this common problem. Therefore, the differences between pelleted and flake food can be summed us in a few key words, better nutrition, better value and less water quality problems. Make the break from flake, try HIKARI!
