Hikari Algae Wafers

Hikari Algae Wafers

Hikari Algae Wafers are sinking food developed for plecostomus and other algae-eating bottom feeders. The wafer format brings food to the lower part of the aquarium, giving suitable fish access to a prepared food alongside their natural grazing routine.

Product Details

• Brand: Hikari
• Food format: sinking wafers
• Intended use: feeding plecostomus and other suitable algae-eating bottom feeders
• Pack options: available in multiple sizes; check the selected variant before ordering

Check the current package for ingredients, nutritional analysis and species suitability. Plecostomus species have different dietary needs; do not assume every species requires the same diet or can live on aquarium algae alone.

Feeding Guide

• Follow the feeding directions on the current packaging.
• Offer a small quantity appropriate to the number and size of your bottom feeders.
• Place wafers where the intended fish can reach them, and check that other inhabitants are not taking the entire portion.
• For fish that feed mainly after dark, offer food when they are naturally active.
• Observe consumption and adjust portions to avoid accumulating leftovers.
• Remove uneaten food and continue routine substrate cleaning to help maintain water quality.

Use as part of a species-appropriate feeding routine, with other suitable foods where needed. Avoid adding extra wafers simply because fish are not immediately visible at feeding time.

Storage and Handling

• Keep the package tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Use clean, dry utensils and prevent aquarium water from entering the package.
• Follow the storage instructions and use-by date printed on the pack.

For ornamental fish feeding only. Food does not replace regular water testing, water changes or filter maintenance.
