Description

Hikari Algae Wafers are the original wafer food developed specifically for plecostomus and other algae-eating bottom feeders. Each disc delivers a complete, balanced diet rich in the vegetable matter these fish naturally prefer — so your hard-working clean-up crew gets proper nutrition, not just leftovers.

  • Purpose-made for herbivorous bottom feeders such as plecos
  • High vegetable content to match their natural diet
  • Sinking disc shape that’s easy for bottom dwellers to find and graze on
  • Highly palatable — readily accepted, even by fussy feeders

Widely regarded as the first and finest wafer of its kind, it’s a reliable staple for your bottom dwellers — see the Feeding guide tab for how much and when to feed.

Feeding guide

Feed no more than the amount your fish will completely consume within two (2) hours. Best fed in the evening or at night for nocturnal bottom feeders; remove uneaten food afterward to prevent overfeeding.

How to introduce

Even the tastiest new food deserves a gentle introduction. Blend it with your pet’s current food over 7–10 days, gradually increasing the new and easing off the old. Cats and sensitive tummies often appreciate an extra week or two — and if anything seems off, slow things down and check in with your vet.
