✂️ Usage tips
Feed daily as a staple food, as much as your fish can eat in 2–3 minutes. The sinking pellets reach the bottom directly — ideal for cichlids that feed from the bottom or in the middle water layers.
💡 Tip
Do you have cichlids that feed at the surface? Then choose Hikari Cichlid Excel — the same formula in floating pellets.
❓ Frequently asked questions
Why low-protein food for herbivorous cichlids?
Herbivorous cichlids have a longer intestinal length and are adapted to plant-based food. Too much protein can lead to digestive problems and kidney damage.
What is the difference with Hikari Cichlid Excel?
Same formula, but Sinking Cichlid Excel sinks — ideal for cichlids that feed from the bottom. Cichlid Excel floats — for cichlids that feed at the surface.
Does spirulina really help with color enhancement?
Yes — pure cultured spirulina contains natural pigments that visibly enhance the colors of herbivorous cichlids.
