Care & Maintenance:

Marine fish require a constant water temperature between 22-26°C (72-78°F) with best results at the high end of the scale. Care should be taken to avoid sudden temperature changes as this can cause shock. Marine fish expend considerable energy purging salt from their system. Supplemental feedings of Hikari Bio-Pure Frozen Diets, rich in pure water, reduces the energy required for this purging process and promotes superior growth and coloration.

Feeding Suggestions:

Feed no more than your pet will consume within two minutes two to three times each day. Care should be taken to avoid overfeeding and no food should remain after the feeding period. Ask your retailer about our other marine diets, Hikari Bio-PureFD or Frozen, expecially Mega-Marine available in formulations to meet the nutritional needs of all your marine friends.
