DIRECTIONS FOR USE
Feed at most the amount your fish will completely consume within 2 hours.
Many bottom feeders are nocturnal (active at night), and they feed late in the day or at night for best results.
Care should be taken to avoid overfeeding and unhealthy food should be permanently removed after feeding.
Note: Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers contain higher levels of natural ingredients, which may cause a slight change in color from one production lot to another. Rest assured, because of our rigid quality standards; each package meets our superior nutritional specifications.
