Why Micro Pellets suit community tanks
- Tiny pellet sized for small-mouthed fish that struggle with larger pellets.
- Semi-floating: feeds surface and mid-water fish, so more of the tank eats.
- Balanced granules: protein (red), plant matter (green) and vitamins (yellow) in one food.
- Low-waste: won't cloud the water when fed correctly.
