Hikari Massivore Delite – XL Sinking Pellet for Monster Carnivorous Fish

Larger carnivorous fish that are normally fed live foods can be difficult to satisfy on a standard pellet, both in terms of appetite and the nutritional load they need to thrive.

Hikari Massivore Delite is an X-large sinking pellet developed specifically for super-sized bottom feeding carnivores, offering the nutritional equivalent of 1.8 live goldfish per pellet without the parasite or bacteria risk that comes with feeding live food. It rapidly absorbs water and takes on a texture similar to live prey while retaining its shape, and its high carotenoid content helps these fish develop the vibrant colouration they’d normally only get from natural UV exposure. Available in 380g. If you’re feeding smaller carnivorous or bottom-feeding fish, our Hikari Sinking Carnivore Pellets are sized for catfish, bichirs and axolotls rather than monster fish.

Recommended For

Larger bottom-feeding carnivorous fish that are normally fed live foods, including bichirs, fire eels, larger plecostomus, freshwater sharks and other big predatory catfish species.

Feeding

Feed once daily, offering only as much as your fish will completely consume within a few minutes. Carnivorous fish may resist a new food when changing from live foods or a less protein-rich diet, continued use will encourage acceptance. Throwing a pellet onto the water’s surface to create a splash can also help, as it mimics the action of live prey. Avoid overfeeding, and remove any uneaten food after the feeding period to protect water quality.
