Hikari® Discus Bio-Gold® Sinking Protein-Packed Discs for Discus and Tropical Fish, 2.82 oz (80g)

It is a high quality food. Fish love it, they eat it immediately and I have noticed that it greatly enhances their natural colors. In addition, it does not cloud the aquarium water at all. Highly recommended.

I love my Discus, and I take great care in making sure that they are happy and healthy. In my early days, when I was still an amateur aquarist, I fed my Discus flakes made for tropical fish. These floated, and were not specially made for Discus. Discus prefer eating from the bottom, and not from the surface. Sinking food is better for them. They also get quickly very bored if you feed them the same kind of food over and over again. I feed my Discus two times a day (sometimes 3 times a day). I always alternate the food I give them. One day I give them frozen worms (which they love the most), one day shrimps, one day dried worms, one day Discus granules etc... You can tell if your Discus are happy by their colors (they display brighter colors) and they grow quicker. They also become less shy. My Discus love this Bio-Gold product. They actually fight over it, and I always love watching them whenever I feed it to them. It also has special vitamins that make your Discus grow faster and enhances their colors. The granules sink to the bottom, and they have a strong meaty smell (more so than the other Discus food I have). They just smell fresh, and maybe that's why the Discus love them so much. From all the food I give my Discus, these seem to be their second favorite (their favorite is frozen worms).

My discus love this had a smaller 1 he hid for months wet the food on my hand dropped on leaves of plants so he could eat without bigger fish bothering him once he came out from the leaves of the plants 2 months later he had doubled in size … good product

These are one of the few dry foods that my spoiled, picky discus will accept. The pellet size is a bit small even though my fish are still juveniles. I'd recommend going for the Hikari vibra bites instead. They have a similar ingredient list (and maybe flavor?), but are a bit bigger.

Obviously theres no better diet for growing out Discus than natural beef-heart. But feeding juveniles beef-heart five times a day is expensive and messy. I've been use this product as a twice daily "snack" mixed with Aquarian Tropical Flakes and now with Cobalt Aquatics Discus Hans flakes. It dosent foul the tank as bad as beef-heart. Its high in protein, low in fat and low in moisture content; all a must for max growth for Discus. It sinks slowly and they eat most of it before it reaches the bottom of the tank. It dosent dissolve and they "peck" away almost off it that does reach the bottom, kinda like baby chicks :) I've been using this product over 20 years and find its one of the best for full growth potential and color development

Too expensive.

This fish food is rated at 5 stars on a web site devoted to Oscars. In preparation of said Oscar, I purchased a bag from Amazon. This is high quality stuff! AS WELL AS IT SHOULD BE BASED UPON THE PRICE! I currently have 6 Small- to- Med Silver Dollars and a baby convict as the current inhabitants in my 75 Gal home far from home for them. The small pellets float briefly before sinking but are easily spotted for those who hunt the bottom! It seems very little of the small pinch of food is going to waste during feeding time. Because of its colour and interaction in the water- the crew has plenty of time to eat before the pellets reach bottom; for those pellets that do hit bottom, they are easily spotted thanks to the contrast the food provides! This stuff is equivalent to feeding your pets Iams products! Do your own research! Quality in= Less poop out:) Good enough for me.

I use a large variety of foods for my 75 gallon community tank. I have discus, angles, neons,Cory’s,skirt tetra,mollys,guppy’s, dwarf, frogs, danios, mystery snails, 3 female bettas, and a couple other tetra varieties, all in the 75. Everyone is happy to eat this food.

Everytype of fish will love this

I have tried many market bought discus food ..the most used are hikari and tetrabits.. n believe me i fed each feed for straight 8 months to my discus and when they were on hikari -they had excellent results-growth,colour , weight -everything was noticeable with hikari

All good

Only dry food that my discus eat, they go crazy for it as soon as it’s dropped in! At first, I was sceptical as the food is very small but my fish eat it all so I’m glad I bought this. Recommend

Most trusted product for discus ..i am using this for long and no complain till now..for better result feed multiple time with smaller quantity..
