Vitalis Herbivore Pellets are a soft, slowly sinking daily diet designed to meet the specific lower protein, plant-based nutritional requirements of herbivorous cichlids and other plant-eating fish, primarily from African Rift Lakes (Malawi and Tanganyika). 

Product Details and Benefits
  • Targeted Nutrition: The formula is rich in high-quality vegetable ingredients, a unique blend of nutrient-dense algae (including Ascophyllum and Ulva seaweeds), and spirulina to mimic the natural grazing behavior and diet of herbivorous species (e.g., Mbuna, Tropheus).
  • Soft Pellets: Vitalis uses a low-temperature extrusion process to create soft, malleable pellets that are easy for fish to consume and digest. This highly digestible formula helps reduce food waste and maintain clear water.
  • Enhanced Coloration: The natural pigments from the high-quality, sustainably sourced ingredients help naturally enhance the vibrant coloration of the fish.
  • Feeding Behavior: The pellets sink slowly, encouraging a more natural feeding experience for fish at all levels of the aquarium.
  • Water Quality: The low-leaching formula is designed to keep water quality high and put less stress on filtration systems. 

Usage and Dosing
  • Feeding Frequency: Feed small portions two to three times daily.
  • Maintenance: Remove any uneaten pellets to maintain optimal water quality.
