I still gravitate to Hikari because I use their pellets for my goldfish and they love it. So I wanted to try their cichlid pellets for my flowerhorn and it doesn't disappoint. My flowerhorn is feeding on these multiple times a day. Definitely a great add to mix up what you feed your cichlids. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love Hikari products *by D***A on September 17, 2014* I love Hikari products. Quality is excellent. And I love that they use the resealable bags... very convenient, yet cheaper and more environmentally friendly than twist top cans. I usually buy a large bag, then use it to refill my own smaller twist top can for more convenience. My fish are healthy and colorful. And since the food floats, there is less waste getting sucked into my filters or dropping into the gravel. Just be sure you do offer some sinking food for your bottom feeders. I recommend the Hikari Sinking Wafers if you have loaches and other scavengers that may not get enough food otherwise. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hikari 2-Ounce Cichlid Bio-Gold and Floating Pellets for Pets, Mini - TetraCichlid Cichlid Flakes, Fish Food, Clear Water Advanced Formula, 5.65 Ounces - Hikari 8.8-Ounce Cichlid Excel Floating Pellets for Pets, Mini --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/9840778-hikari-2-ounce-cichlid-bio-gold-and-floating-pellets-pets](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/9840778-hikari-2-ounce-cichlid-bio-gold-and-floating-pellets-pets) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-13*
