Who is it suitable for?

This food can be used for many tropical aquarium fish that naturally take algae, plant material and mixed foods, including suitable livebearers, rainbowfish, algae-grazing catfish and herbivorous or omnivorous cichlids.

It should not automatically become the sole food for strict carnivores or specialist feeders. Build the diet around the biology of the fish you keep and use other suitable foods for variety where needed.

How to feed

Offer small portions several times during the day where appropriate, adjusting the amount to the number and size of fish. The manufacturer advises that the food should be eaten within a few minutes. If granules remain on the substrate for long periods, reduce the next portion.

Spread the food across more than one area in a busy community so shy fish have a chance to feed. Sinking granules are useful for fish that feed below the surface, but check that dominant bottom dwellers are not monopolising every portion.

Manufacturer composition

The manufacturer lists algae including 36% Spirulina platensis, vegetable protein extracts and other plant-derived ingredients, together with fish and fish derivatives, cereals, molluscs and crustaceans, yeasts, oils, fats and mineral feed materials. The published analytical composition includes 48% crude protein, 6% crude fat and 3.8% crude fibre.

These are manufacturer formulation figures rather than a medical claim. Food should be selected to match the species and overall feeding programme.

Water quality and portion control

Even a high-quality food can reduce water quality when overfed. Uneaten granules break down into waste and increase the load on the filter. Feed to observed consumption, keep ammonia and nitrite at zero and maintain the aquarium with regular partial water changes.

Using it in a varied diet

For herbivorous fish, Super Spirulina Forte can form an important part of the staple diet. Omnivores can be rotated with suitable insect, krill, frozen or general complete foods so the feeding programme is not unnecessarily narrow.

For plecos and other grazers, remember that a prepared granule complements rather than replaces the correct aquarium environment, natural grazing surfaces and any species-specific dietary requirements such as wood or vegetables.

Storage

Keep the container tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and aquarium condensation. Use dry hands or a clean dry scoop so moisture does not enter the food. Check the package for the current best-before date.

Before buying

Choose Tropical Super Spirulina Forte Granulat 36% if your fish need a complete sinking food with a strong Spirulina component. If your stock is mainly surface-feeding or strictly carnivorous, compare the format and formulation with a more suitable Tropical food before ordering.
