Description

Hikari First Bites gives newborn fish the best possible start, delivering the high-quality protein fry need through their critical early development stages. The precisely balanced formula supports excellent body form, vibrant colouration and proper organ development from the very first feed.

  • High-quality protein: supports healthy growth and muscle development in newborn fish.
  • Optimal nutritional balance: precisely formulated to foster proper organ development in fry.
  • Enhances colouration: helps bring out brighter, more vibrant natural colours as fish grow.
  • Easy to consume: finely granulated so newborn fish can eat and digest it easily for maximum nutrient absorption.

The ideal choice for aquarists raising fry, promoting robust health and development from the very beginning.

Feeding guide
  • Feed daily as many times as possible, the amount fish will completely consume within about a minute; up to 10 daily feedings may be necessary depending on fry population.
  • For bottom feeders, soak food in aquarium water first to encourage sinking.
  • Livebearers can begin eating immediately after birth; start before the yolk sack is consumed.

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.
