Provide any newborn fish the exacting nutritional balance they require dring the earliest developmental stages of their life.
We recommend Hikari Tropical First Bites as a daily diet for all types of newborn fish in both fresh and saltwater environments.
Features:
Rich in highly nutritious, freshly harvested ingredients including premium-selected fish meal which provides a superior protein source rich in amino acids. Hikari Tropical First Bites® offer a uniquely balanced nutrient profile for the, all important, developmental stage of your fry's life and promotes proper feeding habits. This semi-floating food allows fry at all levels of the aquarium ready access to its exacting nutrition while reducing water quality issues common with other fry foods.
Feeding:
For optimum results feed daily as often as possible the amount your fish will consume within 2 to 3 minutes. Care should be taken to avoid feeding larger quantities of food less often as it can cause a lack of nutrition. For best results feed up to four times daily an amount of food which can be consumed within a minute.
For mid-water and bottom feeders
Soak in a cup of aquarium water before feeding. This will cause the food to sink more rapidly providing these fry ready access to the nutrition.
For Live-Bearers (ovoviviparous)
They can consume Hikari First Bites right after birth.
For Egg-Layers (oviparous)
They utilize their yolk sack for nutrition right after birth. Start feeding Hikari First Bites right before their yolk sack is fully consumed.
