Hikari Algae Wafers are the original sinking disc for herbivorous bottom feeders — plecos and other algae-grazers above all. They're rich in vegetable matter with pure-cultured spirulina and chlorella, hold their disc shape without dissolving or clouding the water, and sink quickly so grazing fish can work at them at their leisure. Because aquarium algae alone rarely supplies all the vitamins and minerals a pleco needs, these wafers fill an important nutritional gap.
Feeding Tip: Many bottom feeders are nocturnal, so dropping a wafer in just after lights-out gets it to the fish that need it. They're also a favorite of ornamental shrimp and snails, which swarm and graze a wafer for hours — just break off a small piece for a shrimp tank rather than dropping a whole disc. Remove any uneaten portion after a couple of hours.
A long-standing staple for any tank with plecos, Otocinclus, shrimp, or snails — the dependable way to make sure your grazers are actually getting fed.
