Why we chose it

The XL stick is the whole point: it gives larger ornamental fish a floating format made for their mouth size. A 46% protein figure and complete-food status make the label easy to compare with other cichlid foods.

Full description

Large ornamental fish can make short work of food intended for a much smaller mouth. A larger floating stick gives them a format they can take at the surface, while also letting the keeper see what has been eaten.

Tetra Cichlid Sticks XL are complete food for cichlids and other large ornamental fish. The extruded sticks are described as softening quickly while remaining stable in the water. Their composition begins with fish and fish derivatives, then vegetable protein extracts and yeasts, followed by vegetable derivatives, molluscs and crustaceans, oils and fats, and minerals.
