Each 17mm wafer is designed to sink and hold together slowly, giving bottom-dwelling fish the time they need to graze naturally rather than racing against dissolving food.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Oak Bark Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe inclusion of oak bark at 3% of the formula is a deliberate choice, not a novelty. Oak bark provides essential dietary roughage that supports efficient digestion in species whose gut health depends on fibrous plant material. This is the kind of species-specific consideration that makes a real difference to long-term health.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIngredients and Composition\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpirulina and kelp together account for 12% of the formula, delivering the algae content these fish actively seek out. The full ingredient list includes plant protein, cereals, fish and fish derivatives, wheat germ, vegetables, oak bark, and minerals, rounded out with tocopherols and rosemary extract as natural preservatives.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eNutritional Analysis\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProtein: 38.3%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOil: 3.7%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFibre: 3.2%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMoisture: 8.2%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAsh: 13.4%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin A: 24,000 IU\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin D3: 1,500 IU\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin E: 100mg\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamin C: 420mg\/kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeeding Guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeed one to two times daily, offering only what your fish will consume within 20 minutes.
