Tropical Discus Gran Wild 250ml/110g Slow-Sinking Granules

Tropical Discus Gran Wild 250ml/110g is a multi-ingredient slow-sinking granule food formulated specifically for wild-caught discus and other demanding wild fish. Where standard discus foods fall short with recently imported or acclimatising fish, this formula combines algae, krill, fruit, and targeted functional ingredients to encourage acceptance and support recovery, conditioning, and long-term vitality.

Algae Blend

The formula draws on four distinct algae species, each contributing something specific. Spirulina (Arthrospira platensis) and Chlorella (Chlorella vulgaris) deliver unsaturated fatty acids, proteins, and vitamins, while their concentrated chlorophyll content actively inhibits harmful bacteria in the digestive tract, helping to prevent infection. Kelp algae (Ascophyllum nodosum and Laminaria digitata) contribute a broad spectrum of macronutrients and trace elements, including iodine, chromium, selenium, and iron.

Colour and Condition Support

• Carotenoids sourced from krill and red pepper, alongside added astaxanthin, to maintain and enhance natural colouration
• Rich plant-based ingredient base — algae and fruit — mirrors the dietary profile of wild discus
• Zeolite included to assist with the elimination of toxins from the body
• Active compounds from garlic and spirulina to strengthen immune response and support resistance to pathogens

Texture and Acceptance

The granules have a deliberately soft texture that allows them to hydrate and soften quickly once in the water. This is particularly important for wild-caught or recently imported fish that may be reluctant to take harder, denser foods. Slow sinking gives fish adequate time to feed at their own pace without waste.

Quarantine and Acclimatisation Use

Tropical Discus Gran Wild 250ml/110g is specifically recommended for fish in quarantine, convalescence, or adjustment to a new environment. The combination of immune-supporting actives, digestive health ingredients, and an easily accepted texture makes it a practical choice during the most vulnerable stages of a fish's time in your care.

Feeding

Offer small portions several times daily rather than one large feed. This matches the natural feeding behaviour of wild discus and reduces the risk of uneaten food compromising water quality.

For keepers working with wild-caught discus or other sensitive imported species, Tropical Discus Gran Wild 250ml/110g brings together a level of nutritional and functional detail that goes well beyond standard granule foods — giving you a genuine tool for getting difficult fish feeding, thriving, and showing their best colour.
