Why Choose Hikari Sinking Wafers?

Bottom-feeding fish often need food that reaches the substrate before faster mid-water fish eat it. Hikari Sinking Wafers are designed to sink quickly and remain available for corydoras, loaches, plecos, catfish, shrimp, and other bottom dwellers.

The wafer format encourages natural grazing behavior while helping aquarists feed more cleanly in community tanks, planted aquariums, and bottom-feeder setups.
