Dainichi Veggie Fx 2.5kg Baby (1mm) Sinking Pellets

Description

Dainichi Veggie Fx 2.5kg Baby (1mm) Sinking Pellets — Bulk colour pellet for breeders rearing herbivorous cichlid fry

A dedicated Tropheus or Petrochromis breeder producing fry in volume wants the colour benefits of Veggie Fx across every rearing tank, not just the display. Dainichi Veggie Fx 2.5kg Baby (1mm) Sinking Pellets (SKU: 101493) is the bulk pack of Dainichi’s colour-enhancing herbivore formula at the 1 mm pellet size, built on the Veggie Deluxe base and coated and encapsulated with spirulina, freeze-dried Cyclop-eeze and NatuRose, a Haematococcus algae source of astaxanthin, plus E. superba krill. Six colour-enhancing ingredient applications are used, alongside raw vitamins, digestive enzymes and garlic for general health. The pellet is designed to break down into granules in the gut rather than swell, aimed at strict herbivores such as Tropheus that are prone to bloat.

The 1 mm Baby pellet is scaled for fry and juveniles, with adults taking the 3 mm Small grade in the same range once they outgrow it. The recipe also includes kelp, white fish meal, soybean meal, wheat flour as binder, shrimp meal, wheat germ, brewer’s yeast, calcium montmorillonite clay, vitamin and mineral mixes, protease and natural gum. Dainichi positions Veggie Fx as one of its two most colour-intensive herbivore formulas. At 2.5 kg, the pack suits a breeding operation, club or fish room running multiple rearing tanks, where the cost per feed drops at this volume. Feeding follows Dainichi’s standard direction: offer only what the fish consume within a few minutes, one to three times a day, with smaller and more frequent feeds preferred over one large meal. No guaranteed analysis is published for this pack. The range also comes in 100 g, 250 g and 500 g, and as the 3 mm Small pellet for adults.
