## Description

Feed your bottom fish a delicious, nutrient-rich food that produces less ammonia for cleaner, clearer water with API BOTTOM FEEDER SQUID PELLETS Optimal Protein Sinking Pellets. Overfeeding, low palatability and low quality lead to unconsumed or poorly digested food which causes waste and raises ammonia levels. High levels of ammonia are toxic to fish and can cause gill damage, stress, illness and death. API Fish Food produces up to 30% less ammonia than leading competitor foods because they are made with highly palatable shrimp and nutritionally enhanced protein for maximum digestion. The more nutrients your fish digests, the less waste and ammonia. It is a complete and balanced diet for all bottom-feeding fish including Catfish, Plecostomus and Loaches. Feed twice a day, and provide only as much as your fish will consume within 30 minutes.API Fish Food is formulated for a variety of popular fish such as cichlids, goldfish, tetra, betta, angelfish and more with high quality ingredients fish love such as algae, squid, worms and more. Keep your fish healthy, happy and colorful with food that contains optimal levels of nutrients as well as helps produce less waste, toxins and stress.

Review: Perfect - sink well, fish love chasing them around while they melt
Review: My fish like it - I've used these for years for my bristlenoses, cories, and cherry shrimp. They seem to like these sinking pellets well enough. Even the regular fish in the tank go after them. The 7.9 ounce container is a good size, so it lasts awhile. I'll buy again.

I've used these for years for my bristlenoses, cories, and cherry shrimp. They seem to like these sinking pellets well enough. Even the regular fish in the tank go after them. The 7.9 ounce container is a good size, so it lasts awhile. I'll buy again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely product
*by Q***I on 2 January 2021*

I had previously bought wafers for my botton feeders (3 loaches and 1 catfish). They seemed to like them but I noticed they took long to soften. The pellets though, once wet, sink to the bottom and my fish said "Yes thank you" and scoffed them all off. They even said "Can we have some more please? I did notice though that not all of them sink but my ingenious loaches have since discovered this and make their way to the corner of the tank, where the pellets seem to locate themselves. Overall, a good product and I will certainly be purchasing them again.
