What is the best food for my fish?

The best food for your fish depends on its species. Tropical fish thrive on a mix of high-quality flakes or pellets, while goldfish require specialised food with lower protein and higher fibre. Bottom feeders like catfish need sinking wafers, and carnivorous fish may require frozen or live foods such as bloodworms or brine shrimp.

How often should I feed my fish?

Most fish should be fed once a day, with only as much food as they can consume in two to three minutes. A good rule of thumb is to feed an amount the same size as the fish's eyeball. Overfeeding can lead to water contamination and health issues. Some species, like herbivorous fish, may require more frequent, smaller feedings.

What is the difference between flakes, pellets, and frozen food?

Flakes: Ideal for surface feeders and small fish, but can lose nutrients quickly. Pellets: Available in floating or sinking varieties to suit different fish species. Frozen/live food: Provides high protein for carnivorous fish and mimics their natural diet. A varied diet combining these options ensures balanced nutrition for your fish.
