Xtreme Big Fella 3mm Slow-Sinking Pellet
Xtreme Big Fella is a 3 mm slow-sinking pellet formulated for larger and more aggressive eaters: big cichlids, silver dollars, angelfish, and other hungry tank residents. The krill-first, USA farm-grown formula builds rich natural color and supports immune and digestive health, with no added hormones and no artificial dyes. Stock up alongside the rest of our premium aquarium foods.
Why Xtreme Big Fella
- Built around four marine proteins, cold-water krill, shrimp, squid, and green pea, with USA farm-grown spirulina for complete nutrition.
- 3 mm slow-sinking pellet sized for medium-to-large fish and easy for aggressive eaters to grab as it drifts down.
- Natural color enhancement, no artificial color additives. It deepens the colors your fish already carry.
- USA farm-grown ingredients with no added hormones.
- Holds together as it sinks, so it stays clean and will not cloud your water.
Who It Is For
Ideal for larger freshwater fish: African and Central American cichlids, angelfish, silver dollars, larger barbs and gouramis, and other medium-to-large community fish. Browse our freshwater livestock for stocking ideas.
Feeding Directions
Feed once or twice a day, offering only what your fish finish in a couple of minutes. The slow sink rate lets mid-water and bottom feeders share the meal. Remove any uneaten pellets to protect water quality.
