How to choose the best aquarium fish food
Pick a food that matches how and where your fish eat:
- Top & mid-water feeders: floating flakes and slow-sinking pellets suit guppies, tetras and bettas.
- Bottom feeders: sinking wafers and tablets feed plecos, loaches and catfish.
- Carnivorous fish: high-protein pellets support cichlids, oscars and arowana.
- Young fish & fry: fine fry food and crushed flakes feed growing babies.
- Colour feeds: pigment-rich diets bring out reds, blues and oranges.
Mix dry foods with the occasional protein treat for a balanced diet. Feed only what your fish finish in about two minutes, once or twice a day, to keep the water clean.

Frequently asked questions
What is the best aquarium fish food?
The best aquarium fish food depends on your species. A quality staple flake or pellet suits most community tanks, cichlids need high-protein food, and bottom feeders need sinking wafers. Colour-enhancing diets help bring out bright pigments.
How often should I feed my fish?
Feed once or twice a day, only what your fish finish in about two minutes. Overfeeding fouls the water and harms fish health.
What do I feed fry and young fish?
Use fine fry food or crushed flakes several times a day so growing young fish always have small, digestible particles.
Can I feed one food to all my fish?
A good staple covers most community fish, but adding sinking food for bottom feeders and high-protein food for carnivores keeps everyone healthy.
