Dainichi Reef Veggie Fx 2.5kg Small (3mm) Sinking Pellets

Description

Dainichi Reef Veggie Fx 2.5kg Small (3mm) Sinking Pellets — Bulk pellet for shops and systems with many adult grazing fish

A wholesale system or a shop’s holding tanks running a dozen tangs and surgeonfish through daily grazing needs a food bought by the kilogram, not a 250 g pack reordered every few days. Dainichi Reef Veggie Fx 2.5kg Small (3mm) Sinking Pellets (SKU: 101513) is the 2.5 kg bulk pack of Dainichi’s marine herbivore formula in the 3 mm Small sinking grade, the same kelp-led recipe as the smaller retail packs but scaled for continual feeding across a large or multi-tank set-up. Freeze-dried copepods and dehydrated plankton sit alongside the kelp base for animal protein, with a two-spirulina blend and Haematococcus algae supplying the astaxanthin that carries natural colour.

The guaranteed analysis is unchanged at this size: crude protein minimum 39%, crude fat minimum 5%, crude fibre maximum 4%, moisture maximum 9%, ash maximum 12%, calcium minimum 2% and phosphorus minimum 0.7%. Wheat flour and wheat germ bind the pellet, montmorillonite clay and gum acacia support gut health, and beta glucan is included for immune support. Dainichi’s feeding directions apply regardless of pack size: one to three feeds daily, only what is consumed within a few minutes, favouring smaller and more frequent feedings over one large one. The 3 mm Small grade suits adult-mouthed grazers, and the 2.5 kg size is intended for a holding system, wholesale operation or a large reef collection with several heavy grazers rather than a single lightly stocked tank.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Shop and wholesale holding systems: Bulk feeding across many adult grazing fish.
• Large reef collections: Several tangs or surgeonfish feeding daily on the same formula.
• Proven formulas only: Buy this size once fish are confirmed to eat the 3 mm grade.
• Ongoing herbivore feeding: A high-turnover staple for continual grazing demand.

Feeding Guide

• One to three feeds daily: Offer only what is cleared within a few minutes.
• Portion by tank: Divide the bulk pack out per system rather than overfeeding one.
• Feed near rockwork: The Small grade settles where tangs and surgeonfish naturally graze.
• Reseal between uses: Keep the bulk bag dry to protect the vitamin content over time.
