Tropical MiNi Wafers Mix 250ml/138g
Overview
Tropical MiNi Wafers Mix is a multi-ingredient sinking wafer food for omnivorous aquarium species that feed at the bottom, alongside freshwater and marine crustaceans. The compact wafers come in red and green pieces, making them a practical daily feed for busy community aquariums with bottom-dwelling livestock.
The recipe is designed for species such as plecos and other loricariids, loaches, corydoras and catfish. It also suits crustaceans that benefit from a sinking food they can reach easily on the substrate.
The wafers are highly water-stable, hold their shape well and do not cloud the water, helping keep feeding neat and controlled in active tanks.
