Why Customers Choose Hikari
RESEARCH
We feel it's our duty to constantly investigate the natural ecology of fish to make the best food for them. Our exploration to Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi in Africa, Guiana highland, the Indian Ocean, the jungle of Southeast Asia and the Holy River Ayeyawady and others, offer us many secrets to fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, water conditions and quality.
SPECIES SPECIFIC DIETS
Hikari offers a wide variety of diets for different species of fish, each offering unique characteristics which enable it to be readily accepted by the specific fish it was developed for, which is where Species Specific originated. This attention to detail allows you to be confident your choice will be quickly devoured by even the most finicky eaters.
TECHNOLOGY
Our first hand experience breeding and raising fish, and the scientific data we can collect during this process, give us a clear road map for future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari uses actual experience and physical practice instead of marketing schemes or unproven theory to develop our premium aquatic diets!

Quality is always fresh and my monster fish especially my RTC LOVES this pellet. My Plecos are huge as well as my other fish as this is perfect for my growing "kids". I am concerned with the price. Also the fact that it only comes in a 2.2 and not a 5lb or even a 10. I have quite a few monsters as well as 6 tanks. I need to get this a few times per month and Amazon wont allow auto ship. I need something bigger!!!

I have large oscar and enderlicheri bichir..... they eat alot. I've gone thru 13 bags of this over the past 3 years or so. Consistent every time. Way better value buying in large bag vs 9 oz bag.

I’ve been using Hikari sinking pellets for a while and they’re great for my fish. They seem to love them, and the water stays pretty clean. However, this time my order had a lot of crumbs in the bag, which was kind of disapointing. Usually, the pellets are in great shape, but this batch was messier than usual. Still a solid product, just hoping for better quality control next time!

These sinking pellets are the best we have found anywhere. Our fish need the sinking pellets so they can eat it easier. Love this stuff.

My fish go nuts for this food. And it is affordable. Maybe the ingredients aren't the very top quality, but my fish look great and love it. The water stays clearer feeding it than some more expensive alternatives I have fed.
