Review: The fish really seem to love it! - I am feeding my son’s fish, and as soon as they see me come in the room, they come up to the tank to eat! Therefore I think they love it! I noticed even the little ones near the bottom seem to love it! It all disappears in a moment! No Kidding! Good size package. Can’t speak to the digestibility or playability. but the fish seem to love it! It also seems to enhance their colors. Highly recommend all Hikari fish products.
Review: Only food I'll buy for my African Cichlids - This is the only food I've found that is well formulated for my Malawi cichlids. This is an all vegetarian food just like they would obtain in the wild. Healthy and happy fish!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Only food I'll buy for my African Cichlids
*by A***W on April 21, 2025*

This is the only food I've found that is well formulated for my Malawi cichlids. This is an all vegetarian food just like they would obtain in the wild. Healthy and happy fish!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for mbunas
*by W***A on June 28, 2024*

My mbunas eat this stuff up. I like the sinking pellets as floating foods go into skimmer. Probably not the best option for all cichlids like South American since they want more protein.
