Feed your cichlid a protein-rich diet scientifically formulated to promote healthy growth and cleaner, clearer water with API CICHLID PELLETS Floating Pellets Fish Food. Overfeeding, low palatability and low quality lead to unconsumed or poorly digested food which causes waste and raises ammonia levels. High levels of ammonia are toxic to fish and can cause gill damage, stress, illness and death. API Fish Food produces up to 30% less ammonia than leading competitors. They contain garlic for added palatability and nutritionally-enhanced protein, squid and menhaden for optimal growth, a rich blend of plant proteins including spirulina, banana and pea for maximum digestion. The more nutrients your fish digests, the less waste and ammonia are released, leaving cleaner, clearer water. Feed twice a day, and provide only as much as your fish will eat within two hours.
