At a glance

Why this algae wafer works for plecos and bottom feeders

• Fibre from vegetables: zucchini and dandelion root extract sit at the top of the ingredient list, which suits fish that need plant matter in their diet.
• Spirulina and chlorella: two algae ingredients that support general condition and colour.
• Shrimp meal and fish meal: add protein so the wafer is not only vegetable matter.
• Softens easily: the maker says the wafer texture is easy for baby plecos and small mouths to eat once softened.
• Cleaner water formula: made to reduce uneaten waste when you feed the right portion.

Who it is for (and who should pick something else)

Pick this wafer if you keep plecos, otos, loaches, corydoras or algae-eating shrimp in a freshwater or planted tank. It sinks, so it is not the right food for surface feeders such as goldfish or bettas; for those choose a floating pellet like Life AAYU Neutral Fish Food or Bug Power Fish Food. This 45g listing suits keepers with several plecos or a bigger tank; if you want a trial, choose the 15g algae wafer. If you prefer a Japanese-brand wafer, compare it with Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers. Carnivorous bottom feeders need more meaty food than any algae wafer.

How to feed

• The maker suggests the "1, 2 ka 4" formula: feed twice a day, about four wafers per feed for one fish, and adjust for the number and size of your fish.
• Drop wafers in after lights dim, since many plecos feed mostly at night; remove what is left after a couple of hours.
• Keep wafers away from fast mid-water fish that will grab them first.
• Pair with fresh blanched vegetables such as zucchini, and give driftwood to rasp on.
• Store sealed in a cool, dry place.

Is this algae wafer safe for bristlenose and baby plecos?

Yes, the maker designed it for bristlenose and clown plecos, including young ones, because the wafer softens easily in water. Break a wafer into smaller pieces for baby plecos and watch that they actually eat it.

How many algae wafers should I feed?

The maker suggests about four wafers per feed for one fish, twice a day. In practice, start with one wafer per pleco and add more only if it is gone by the next morning. Remove uneaten pieces to protect water quality.

Do algae wafers sink or float?

Algae wafers sink to the bottom, which is why they suit plecos, loaches and corydoras. Fish that feed at the surface, such as goldfish and bettas, are better served with a floating pellet.

Can shrimp eat these wafers?

Yes, algae-eating shrimp like Amano, cherry and ghost shrimp are listed as suitable, and shrimp enjoy grazing on a softened wafer. Feed a small piece, since shrimp need little and uneaten food spoils water.

How is this different from the Hikari algae wafers?

Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers are a well-known Japanese wafer, while Life AAYU uses a zucchini and dandelion root recipe handmade in India. Both suit plecos, so choose by pack size and preference; we stock both.
