Does this food suit the fish in your aquarium?

Catfish, plecostomus and loaches are among the bottom-feeding fish this pellet formulation is made for. The label also names cichlids, goldfish, tetra, betta and angelfish. Two checks decide the fit: the fish must be one of the types named, and the food must reach them, which sinking pellets do by dropping to the bottom.

Portion size is the second check. Feed only as much as the fish consume within 30 minutes, twice a day, so a feeding that leaves pellets behind is more than the aquarium is meant to take at once.

Sinking pellets that reach the bottom of the aquarium

These are sinking pellets, so they travel down from the surface rather than drifting there. The form matches fish that feed at the bottom, such as catfish, plecostomus and loaches.

The recipe lists squid pellet, mussel and seaweed. One 4.0-ounce container holds the pellets, and the container is the whole of what the brand supplies.

What the 4.0-ounce container holds

• One container of sinking pellets, 4.0 ounces
• Pellets made with squid pellet, mussel and seaweed

How much to feed and how often

The directions are two feedings a day, morning and evening by the twice-daily schedule. At each feeding, put in only what the fish will consume within 30 minutes, and stop at that amount rather than adding more.
