Fish Science Cichlid Floating Pellet 125g | Cichlid & Large Tropical Fish Food

The FS Cichlid Floating Pellet is a specialist diet formulated for cichlids and larger tropical fish, designed to replicate the varied invertebrate and fish-based feeding behaviour these species exhibit in the wild. Available in a 125g pack, it suits both community cichlid setups and dedicated species tanks.

Natural Diet, Recreated

The formula centres on a multi-invertebrate protein blend — earthworm, bloodworm, mealworm, and silkworm — mirroring the insect and worm-based prey that cichlids and comparable tropical species actively hunt in their natural habitats. Herring meal is included to provide the fish-derived protein component that many of these species also consume in the wild.

Pellet Format

Each pellet measures 5 x 2.5mm and is produced as a floating type, encouraging natural surface and mid-water feeding behaviour. The size is well suited to medium and larger cichlid mouths, reducing waste and uneaten food in the aquarium.

Colouration & Immune Support

The ingredient selection includes natural components known to support vibrant colouration and contribute to a healthy immune response, helping fish maintain condition over the long term rather than simply providing caloric intake.

Sustainability

The ingredients are sourced with environmental responsibility in mind, making this a considered choice for keepers who want quality nutrition without unnecessary ecological impact.

A well-balanced staple for serious cichlid keepers, the FS Cichlid Floating Pellet delivers a diet grounded in the biology of the fish rather than convenience formulation.
