Why Customers Choose Hikari
RESEARCH
We feel it's our duty to constantly investigate the natural ecology of fish to make the best food for them. Our exploration to Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi in Africa, Guiana highland, the Indian Ocean, the jungle of Southeast Asia and the Holy River Ayeyawady and others, offer us many secrets to fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, water conditions and quality.
SPECIES SPECIFIC DIETS
Hikari offers a wide variety of diets for different species of fish, each offering unique characteristics which enable it to be readily accepted by the specific fish it was developed for, which is where Species Specific originated. This attention to detail allows you to be confident your choice will be quickly devoured by even the most finicky eaters.
TECHNOLOGY
Our first hand experience breeding and raising fish, and the scientific data we can collect during this process, give us a clear road map for future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari uses actual experience and physical practice instead of marketing schemes or unproven theory to develop our premium aquatic diets!

Loved by my Bristlenose Plecs and Corydoras alike, they don't make a mess and are always finished.

We have a bottom feeder and he ventures over to the wafers immediately after they are dropped in the water. I am really satisfied with the quality; the fish seems happy and his belly seems full! They last for quite a while so the price is fair since you do not have to buy them very often.

My corys love these wafers! They gobble them up as soon as they realize there's food in the tank.

ALWAYS check the ingredients list for fish food. Hikari's ingredients are solid, much better than the name brand pet store fish food.

They like it! I have pygmy corydoras, rosy loaches, hovering loaches, panda garra, guppies, and medaka eating this (and shrimp and snails of course).I like the smaller sized wafers, I can spread them out so everybody gets a fair shot at them.They haven't clouded my water or dirtied my substrate.Good food!

From my research, these are sort of the gold standard for bottom dwellers. I use about half a tablet every day to feed my 4 kuhli Loaches. These tablets sink well and go straight to the bottom of my tank. I also have a betta that will try to eat these as well. She will just pick it up off the bottom and swim around with it in her mouth. My ember tetras get intrigued by the tablets as well and will try to eat any small bits that get broken off. I think these are a good value and will last a really long time. I've been feeding these for about 4 months and have barely made a dent.

I like the small wafers and they sink quickly so that my Cories have a chance to get some food before the barbs get after it.

Hikari is great food, but unfortunately my catfish didn't like it.

Produit top ! Mes cory et mes red cherry en raffolent. Pour mes 6 cory, je mélange une gaufrette avec des granules type Bug Bites, et ça fonctionne super bien. Les ingrédients sont au top et fiables, ce qui me rassure pour leur alimentation.Bon rapport qualité-prix aussi, les tablettes vont durer longtemps vu la quantité nécessaire à chaque fois. Si vous avez une plus grande population, certains forums vous diront de compter 1 gaufrette pour 2 cory. Mais le meilleur est de tester par vous-même en testant et en voyant ce que vos poissons laissent (ou pas)

I had bought these pellets for feeding my cories but even my gouramis & cherries love these. They sink very fast & each pellet is sufficiently big to last for the more recessive fishes in the tank. These are also good for spot feeding to manage aggression or competition during feeding. Highly recommended.

Habe dieses Futter für meine Panzerwelse gekauft. Sie bekommen das ja nicht zum ersten Mal. Sie lieben es, auch die Platys, aber die sind ja eh sehr verfressen. Das Futter sinkt auch schön schnell ab.
