Color Feeding Notes
Color-support foods may help support normal fish coloration as part of a balanced diet, but fish color can also depend on genetics, maturity, stress level, water quality, lighting, tankmates, and overall care.
For nano tanks and small aquariums, feed lightly and monitor water quality closely because smaller water volumes can change quickly.
