Fish Science Vegetable Flake Food for Herbivorous Fish 50g

The FS Vegetable Flake 50g is a complete flake food formulated specifically for algae-eating and plant-eating fish. Built around a rich blend of vegetable and algae ingredients, it is designed to closely replicate the natural diet of herbivorous species kept in tropical and coldwater aquariums.

Algae & Vegetable-Rich Ingredient Base

The formula draws on a broad spectrum of plant-based ingredients including Kelp, Spirulina algae, Chlorella algae, pea, spinach, and paprika. This combination reflects the varied, nutrient-dense diet that algae-grazing fish would encounter in the wild, rather than relying on a single plant source.

Digestive Support

Insect meal is incorporated into the recipe to aid digestion and support long-term health. This is a considered addition for herbivorous fish, helping the gut process plant matter efficiently and consistently.

Natural Health Ingredients

Beyond the core plant content, the flake includes Beta Glucans, garlic, and omega-3 oils — natural ingredients that contribute to immune function and general condition. These are not filler additions; each plays a recognised role in fish health and resilience.

Natural Colour Enhancement

Spirulina and Chlorella algae, both present in meaningful quantities, are well-established natural colour enhancers. Regular feeding supports vivid, natural pigmentation without the need for artificial colour additives.

A straightforward, well-constructed daily diet for herbivorous fish — the FS Vegetable Flake 50g covers nutritional bases that many generic flake foods overlook.
