Vitalis Tropical Grazing Pellets 8mm

Vitalis Tropical Grazing Pellets are large, slow-sinking 8mm pellets made for the grazers in a tropical freshwater aquarium. Bottom feeders and browsers such as plecos, larger cichlids, and barbs can nibble at their own pace while the pellets hold their shape without clouding the water. Made in the UK from sustainably sourced ingredients. Browse more fish foods.

Why Grazing Pellets

• Slow-sinking and slow-release. The pellets settle and hold together, letting grazing fish feed naturally over time instead of racing to the surface.
• Large 8mm size. Sized for bigger mouths and dedicated browsers, so larger fish get a satisfying, mess-free bite.
• Algae and marine protein blend. A balanced mix of sustainably sourced fish proteins and nutrient-dense algae delivers essential amino acids, vitamins, and minerals.
• Natural color support. Added astaxanthin helps bring out rich, vibrant coloration, with no artificial colorants.

What Fish It Suits

Ideal for plecos and other catfish, larger cichlids, barbs, and other medium to large tropical community fish that like to browse and graze along the bottom and decor. Because the pellets sink and stay intact, they are a great fit for shy or nocturnal bottom feeders.

Feeding

Offer one or more pellets appropriate to your tank size and stocking, once or twice a day. Feed only what your fish consume in a few hours and remove anything left uneaten. Their slow-sinking, shape-holding form makes them easy to target to the bottom of the tank.

Ingredients

Composition: Fish and fish derivatives, derivatives of vegetable origin, oils and fats, algae, molluscs and crustaceans, minerals, vitamins. Fortified with astaxanthin for color plus added vitamins A, D3, and E and trace minerals.
