OSI Cichlid Flakes

In their natural habitat, cichlids tend to feed more on animal rather than plant materials. Because of their predatory nature, they are very active. O.S.I. Cichlid Flakes are formulated with high levels of animal proteins to meet the carnivorous feeding habits of most South and Central American and African Cichlids. High levels of fat provide energy for these active simmers. Natural color-enhancing pigments keep their bright color vivid and beautiful.

Features:

• High Protein
• Color-Enhancing Pigments
• Contains Spirulina
• Vitamins Including Stabilized Vitamin C
• Contains Garlic – Natural Attractants

Food is in the form of flakes, which can be easily crushed. Larger fish, such as Tropheus in my case also consume flakes without crushing. Virtually they swallow all large flakes. The fact that flakes never cloud water declared by the manufacturer is true. The water in the tank was never cloudy even when slightly overfed or fed in larger quantities which fish did not eat immediately.
