Feeding a mix of food types, such as flakes alongside the occasional sinking wafer, helps make sure bottom feeders and shy fish get their share too. Most tropical fish only need what they can eat in two to three minutes, once or twice a day, so it's easy to overfeed without realising. If you're heading away, a holiday or weekend block is a simple way to keep fish fed without leaving excess food to foul the water. Not sure which food suits your fish?

Frequently Asked Questions

Once or twice a day is usually enough, feeding only what your fish can finish in two to three minutes. Overfeeding is one of the most common causes of poor water quality, so it's better to feed a little less than too much.

Both work well, it often comes down to your fish and their feeding habits. Flakes are great for surface and mid-water feeders, while pellets and granules are easier to control and less likely to cloud the water.

Yes, sinking wafers and pellets are designed to reach the bottom of the tank where plecos, catfish and other bottom feeders naturally feed. Regular flake food is often eaten by other fish before it gets that far.

Holiday and weekend feeding blocks slowly release food over a few days, so your fish are fed without anyone needing to pop round. They're a much safer option than leaving a large amount of food in the tank before you go.
