Aquarium Co-Op Magic Bite Size Pellets – 1 oz
Aquarium Co-Op Magic Bite Size Pellets are small, high-protein pellets designed for small freshwater fish, growing juveniles, and community aquariums. The approximately 0.5 mm pellets remain near the surface briefly before slowly sinking through the water column, giving fish at several feeding levels a chance to eat.
The compact 1 oz package is a convenient choice for nano aquariums, smaller fish collections, or customers who want to try the food before purchasing a larger container.

Feeding Directions
Feed a small amount once or twice per day. Offer only as much food as the fish can consume within a few minutes.
Because these pellets are small and nutrient-dense, begin with a light feeding and add more only when needed. Avoid allowing excess food to accumulate on the substrate.
For broader nutritional variety, rotate with other quality pellets, flakes, frozen foods, or live foods appropriate for the fish being kept.
Why Choose a 0.5 mm Pellet?
The small pellet size is easier for many nano fish, young fish, and small-mouthed community species to eat than standard-size pellets. It also provides a useful transition for juveniles that are becoming too large for powdered fry foods but are not yet ready for larger pellets.
As the pellets gradually sink, surface-feeding and midwater fish can catch them before they reach the bottom. Corydoras, shrimp, and other lower-feeding animals may also consume pellets that reach the substrate.
Why Choose the 1 oz Size?
- Ideal for nano tanks and smaller fish collections
- Convenient size for trying the food for the first time
- Helps maintain freshness when feeding fewer fish
- Easy to store in a fish-room cabinet or feeding station
Storage
- Keep the package tightly closed between feedings.
- Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
- Do not allow aquarium water or moisture to enter the package.
- Use dry hands or a clean feeding spoon when dispensing food.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these pellets suitable for nano fish?
The 0.5 mm size works well for many small fish, including guppies, endlers, tetras, rasboras, and ricefish. Extremely small fry may still require powdered or finely crushed food.
Do these pellets float or sink?
They are semi-floating. They remain near the surface briefly and then slowly sink through the water column.
Can juvenile fish eat them?
Yes. The small pellet size can be useful for juveniles transitioning from powdered food to a more substantial pellet.
Can shrimp eat Magic Bite Size Pellets?
Many freshwater shrimp will eat pellets that reach the substrate. The pellets should still be offered as part of a varied diet appropriate for the shrimp species.
Can this be fed every day?
It can be used as a regular food for compatible freshwater fish. Rotating several quality foods can provide additional nutritional and behavioral variety.
What is the difference between the 1 oz and 4 oz sizes?
The food and pellet size are the same. The 1 oz package is better suited to small aquariums, trial purchases, or customers who feed fewer fish.
