Xtreme Beef Heart Flake
Give angelfish, discus, and other cichlids the conditioning power of beef heart with Xtreme Beef Heart Flake. This krill-and-beef-heart flake delivers the rich protein hobbyists have long used to grow and color up prized fish, but in a clean, balanced form that skips the mess and risks of feeding raw beef heart. Farm-grown and made in the USA. Browse more fish food at Squeaky's Aquatics.
The Beef Heart Advantage, Done Right
Aquarists have fed beef heart to discus and angelfish for decades to push growth and color. Raw beef heart, though, is high in fat, clouds the water, and is hard for fish to fully digest. Xtreme blends lean beef heart with krill and other whole foods into a stable flake, so your fish get the conditioning benefits without the fouled water, fat buildup, or digestive trouble.
Built for Growth and Conditioning
This is a high-protein flake aimed at fast growth, vivid color, and strong spawning condition. It is a favorite for growing out young angelfish and discus, conditioning breeders ahead of a spawn, and adding variety to the diet of larger cichlids and community fish.
Clean, Highly Digestible Nutrition
Krill heads the ingredient list, supplying natural pigments and amino acids alongside the beef heart protein. The flakes are highly digestible, so more nutrition is absorbed and less settles out as waste, keeping your tank clearer between water changes.
Feeding
Feed two to three times a day, offering only what your fish finish in about two minutes. Crush the flakes for small or juvenile fish. Beef heart flake works well as a primary food for discus and angelfish or as a high-protein supplement rotated with your staple diet. Offered in 0.5 oz and 1 oz sizes; choose your size at the top of the page.
