Why Fluval Bug Bites
- Insect based protein: nutrient rich black soldier fly larvae are among the first ingredients, a protein fish naturally forage for.
- Balanced daily nutrition: omega 3 and 6 fatty acids support healthy growth, energy, and a strong immune system.
- Sustainably sourced: farmed insect protein has a far smaller footprint than traditional fishmeal.
- Thin, slow sinking crisps packed with algae for natural grazers.
Feeding
Feed one to two times daily, offering only what your fish finish within a few hours. Crisps can be dropped in whole or broken to size.

FAQ
What makes Bug Bites different?
The recipe is built around nutrient rich black soldier fly larvae rather than relying on fishmeal, giving fish a protein source close to what they would eat in the wild.
Are these for plecos?
Yes. Algae grazers such as plecos and many catfish love them, and omnivorous community fish enjoy them too. For dedicated bottom feeders you can also use the Bottom Feeder Formula.
How much should I feed?
Offer only what your fish finish in about two minutes, one to three times a day, and remove anything left uneaten to keep water quality high.
