## Description

Hikari Cichlid Gold Color Enhancing Sinking Fish Food - Mini Pellet - 12 oz

Review: Great for African Peacocks; been using for years - The packaging had definitely changed over the years, but these are the same sinking pellets I've been using for a very long time to feed my African cichlids. There are several different varieties, so be certain you are offering the correct for t your aquarium. They package I purchase is the mini pellets which sink. I like the sinking style for peacocks. In part I think it's better when the fish don't feel like they have gulp from the surface. No worries about the fish getting to much air. This is more of a personal preference. If you're new to African cichlids or looking to make a switch, this is the product I would recommend.
Review: My fish loves this food...and it sinks! - We read that some buyers of this food didn't see it sinking but when we tossed it into our pond, each granule sank to the bottom and the smaller fish were able to eat while the larger fish were chomping on the large floating pellets! We will buy this brand again. Fish approved.
