Diana Mills –
My cichlids have been eating Bug Bites regularly for three months. They seem more active and their colors are brighter than before. The granules sink slowly, so my fish can feed at their depth. No fish have shown any digestive issues.
Diana Greene –
Switched from a commercial flake to Bug Bites and noticed a difference in my fish’s skin and fin health. The smell is natural, and the fish seem to enjoy it. The sinking rate is perfect for my tank setup.
Katherine Rampling –
Good quality food with a natural taste. My fish eat it willingly. The protein content seems high, and the fish are more vibrant. A bit expensive, but worth it for the nutrition.
Adrian Nash –
The fish in my tank have been eating this consistently. No waste, no leftovers. The granules break down slowly and don’t clump. I appreciate the absence of artificial ingredients.

Works well for my small cichlids. They eat it eagerly. The sinking rate is ideal. I’ve seen improved coloration and activity. Would recommend for cichlid keepers looking for a natural diet.
