Hikari Floating Food Sticks

Food Sticks™

Food Sticks™ are a complete, scientifically formulated nutrient mix, developed for top-feeding carnivorous fish whose main diet of live food tends to cause nutritional deficiencies. Using Food Sticks™ instead of live foods reduces the chance of infection from parasites or bacteria which tend to hitchhike in live foods.

A Unique Texture Large Fish Love

• Can completely eliminate the need for live fish feeding

• A unique blend of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals and amino acids all perfectly balanced to offer a daily diet most top-feeding carnivores love

• Free of unwanted parasites and bacteria which are common hitch hikers with most live foods

• Higher levels of carotenoids promote the development of brilliant colors not common in carnivorous fish kept in an indoor aquarium void of natural sunlight

• Key ingredients in this floating pellet allow us to produce a diet that helps most top-feeding carnivores develop their true form over time

A Pellet Designed With A Purpose

• Absorbs water rapidly taking on a texture of a live fish

• A highly flavorful, easily digested nutrient mix

• Contains stabilized vitamin C to support immune system health

• Three sticks offer the caloric equivalent to approximately one live goldfish

Feed two (2) to three (3) times daily only the amount your fish will completely consume within a few minutes, feeding one stick at a time. Care should be taken to avoid over-feeding and always remove uneaten food after feeding period. Carnivorous fish many resist a new type of food when changing their diet from live foods to a stick type food, continued use will ensure acceptance. Throwing the stick at the surface of the water causing a splash can sometime improve acceptance as this mimics the action of a live fish.
