Give plecos and catfish a sturdy bottom wafer that suits their nighttime feeding and natural scraping habits. Each 14 mm wafer has enough weight and firmness to remain available while nocturnal fish feed.
The recipe uses green pea as its primary protein and includes fish, herring, kelp, shrimp and spirulina. Stinging nettle contributes cellulose, an important part of the wild diet described for catfish and especially plecos.
Key Features
- Stinging nettle provides cellulose to better reflect a dietary component plecos and catfish encounter when feeding from tree roots and branches in the wild.
- The hard, weighted wafer encourages natural scraping behavior, giving bottom-feeding fish a more engaging way to eat.
- Each pellet holds up for hours in the aquarium, making it well suited to fish that do much of their feeding at night.
- The formula is made to remain in the tank without fouling the water, supporting a tidier nighttime feeding routine.
- Green pea supplies the primary protein, while fish, herring, kelp, shrimp and spirulina round out the recipe for varied ingredient sources.
- Aquarium keepers have also reported that the formula appeals to other fish, making it worth trying when some tank residents are finicky eaters.
