Product Description of Hikari
Hikari, the pioneer in Species Specific and premium aquatic diets, has been imitated by many, but our devoted customers trust in our products to provide their aquatic pets with the best in scientifically balanced nutrition. With nearly 140 years of experience, we have thoroughly explored natural fish habitats, bred fish in our own facilities, manufactured diets in our own factories, processed every shipment through our own facilities, and studied the long-term effects of our diets. These unique insights into the nutritional needs of fish give us a competitive advantage that no other fish food maker can replicate, allowing us to create diets tailored to specific species that not only maintain your aquatic pets' health but also help you keep your aquarium or pond in optimal condition.
We prioritize the health and longevity of the fish and their environment, striving to bring success to hobbyists through precise nutrition. This approach has established our brand as synonymous with superior quality. Choose Hikari because you care for your aquatic pets as much as they care for you!
Why Customers Choose Hikari Research
Our extensive exploration to various locations such as Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi in Africa, Guiana highland, the Indian Ocean, the jungle of Southeast Asia, and the Holy River Ayeyawady has provided us with invaluable insights into fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, water conditions, and quality. This knowledge allows us to extend the lifespan of fish beyond what they would experience in their natural habitat.
Species Specific
Hikari offers a diverse range of diets for different fish species, each designed with characteristics that make them highly appealing to the specific fish they were created for. This attention to detail ensures that even the most selective eaters will readily consume our products.
Technology
Our hands-on experience in breeding and raising fish, combined with the scientific data we gather throughout this process, guides us in developing future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari relies on real-world experience and practical applications, rather than marketing tactics or unproven theories, to create our premium aquatic diets!
TETRAS LOVE MICRO PELLETS
Most Tetras readily consume smaller foods commonly used in the hobby. It is important to choose a food size that is suitable for them to eat and digest properly. Tetras have a tendency to nibble at their food, which can lead to nutrient leaching. Our Micro Pellets are small pellets that quickly soften in water and are micro-coated to preserve essential nutrition. Feed your Tetras smaller amounts of food more frequently, ensuring they consume it all within 30 seconds to prevent overfeeding and maintain water quality. Consider using Ultimate for exceptional water quality!
In their natural habitat, neon tetras are omnivores, consuming both meat and plant matter. They enjoy a variety of foods, including pellets, frozen, freeze-dried, flake, and live options. However, a high-quality formulated diet should be the foundation of their daily nutrition.
ANGELFISH LOVE MICRO PELLETS
Angelfish prefer feeding at the surface or mid-water, but often forage along the bottom for worms and small crustaceans in the wild. They thrive on our Micro Pellets or Vibra Bites as their main diet. Frozen and live foods can be offered as occasional treats or to stimulate spawning. Feed them only what they can eat in 2 minutes, twice a day, to prevent overfeeding and water quality issues. Consider using Ultimate for outstanding water quality!
Angelfish are omnivores, with small live prey making up a significant portion of their diet in the wild. They consume insects, larvae, crustaceans, rotifers, and fry, requiring a diet high in protein and fiber. Breeding pairs should be fed up to 4 times a day, with added vegetable materials for fiber.
LIVEBEARERS LOVE MICRO PELLETS
Livebearers are omnivorous and benefit from a diet that includes both vegetable and meat-based foods. They enjoy our Micro Pellets along with frozen, freeze-dried, and live foods as treats or to promote spawning and growth. Feed them twice a day, providing an amount they can finish in about 2 minutes to avoid overfeeding and water quality issues. Consider using Ultimate for exceptional water quality!
Most livebearers are surface feeders and readily consume a variety of formulated, frozen, freeze-dried, and live foods. Ensure their diet includes some vegetable content for balanced nutrition. Livebearer fry are small at birth but grow quickly, adding movement and color to your aquarium. They are easy to raise and provide a constant supply of new babies to enjoy.
Micro Wafers
Scientifically developed Micro Wafers offer a nutrient-rich option for fish enthusiasts who currently use flake food. Suitable for all types of tropical fish, from small neon tetras to larger angels, these wafers provide essential nutrients with high acceptance rates, saving you money in the long run.
Spirulina Brine Shrimp
Harvested at peak nutrition, our Spirulina Brine Shrimp offer a natural source of fatty acids and algae for your fish. Experience enhanced color, texture, and taste not found in traditional freeze-dried foods.
Mini Algae Wafers
Hikari Tropical Mini Algae Wafers are scientifically formulated for herbivorous fish, such as plecostomus and other algae-eating bottom feeders. Choose the first and finest disc-shaped diet for your fish and avoid inferior substitutes.
Micro Pellets
Designed for smaller-mouthed fish, our Micro Pellets provide superior nutrition and digestibility. The micro-coating preserves nutrients, offering better value compared to flakes. Scientific research has proven that these pellets meet the dietary needs of tetras, barbs, and other small tropical fish.
Premium Selection
Marine and vegetable proteins in our Micro Pellets are ideal for small tropical fish, providing ample energy reserves. The semi-floating pellets sink slowly, ensuring fish at all levels of the tank receive the necessary nutrition. The unique micro-coating minimizes nutrient loss and water clouding, while the balance of krill and spirulina enhances coloration for vibrant fish. Precise coloration of the granules improves underwater visibility, reducing wasted food and promoting maximum consumption.
