Description

Fluval Bug Bites is a complete fish food that features a unique insect-based formulation, enriched with multiple quality proteins and carbohydrates that are ideal for tropical fish such as bettas, goldfish, cichlids, guppies, and tetras. Insects are hunted by fish in the wild as they offer a widely available food source. The instinctive feeding habit is the foundation behind Bug Bites, which are formulated with nutrient-rich insect larvae and enriched with multiple quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Most freshwater fish are omnivores and regularly feed on insects in the wild. However, not all insects are created equally when it comes to a fish’s diet. Bug Bites are formulated with sustainably harvested Black Soldier Fly Larvae (1 ingredient across all formulas), which are raised on fruits and vegetables for exceptional “super food” nutrition. Using a unique cultivation process, BSFL are grown under controlled conditions for total sustainability that preserves natural environments. Under controlled conditions, Black Soldier Flies produce larvae, which naturally feed on decaying organic matter. Unconsumed fruits and vegetables are used as larvae feed. The larvae consume the feed, converting the nutrients into protein and healthy fat. After a 2-week feeding cycle, the larvae are harvested and dried. The dried larvae are mixed with other high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements to offer a complete and balanced daily diet. In addition to BSFL, Bug Bites offer other excellent protein sources such as Herring & Shrimp Meal, which are also rich in Omega-3 for healthy skin, scales, fins and colors. Unlike big brand fish foods, Bug Bites are always prepared in small batches for superior control and quality assurance. The proximity of our ingredients (most of which are delivered right before production) also offers maximum freshness, which translates into better palatability.

  • Yummy
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
Fish love it, especially Bettas. Quality is top notch. Pellet size is just right for small fish. Price is affordable.

  • High quality ingredients and perfect size for nano fish
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
I use Fluval Bug Bites small granules across multiple nano tanks and it’s been a great all around food. I feed it to bettas, pea puffers, corydoras, and kuhli loaches, and even my shrimp and snails will graze on it. Everyone loves it! The ingredients are solid. Black soldier fly larvae as the main ingredient is a big plus, along with fish protein and added vitamins. It feels much cleaner than a lot of filler heavy foods, and my fish take to it immediately. A little goes a long way, especially for nano tanks, so the container lasts a very long time. Overall, it’s a reliable staple food that works well for mixed community tanks with small to medium fish. ... show more

  • Easy and good quality
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
This is my “go to” for feeding a community of fish, between plecos, platies, mollies, guppies, and shrimps. I travel a lot and I use this in my automatic feeder which works great for that, knowing my fish will get quality protein. It’s also very affordable! I recommend this for every community tank with more than one species. ... show more

  • Betta approved. .loves this food
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
My betta loves this. I tried this after the other food we had was too big. Some float for a little. . Some sink almost right away. My Betta will chase after the sinking food. I do a little at a time bc once he’s done he won’t chase them and does not seem to get them later.

  • It's food.
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
My fish seem to like this food. I wish the pieces sank more slowly because one of my zebra danios is a doofus and bad at hunting apparently. They sink too fast for him, even with my filter turned off to reduce water movement. I bought this because I was looking for smaller food for my danios. My smallest fish (coincidentally the one who sucks at catching things, which is perhaps why he's growing slowly?) still struggles with the size of the pieces, so I rub a few pieces between my fingers to break them up further, which seems to work for him. My shrimp happily go after the bits that make it to the floor. I wish it came with a tiny scoop for feeding. I'm glad the lid screws on tightly because my butthead cat has figured out how to open fish food with the turn to open style cap. ... show more

  • My Beta begs for these now
Size: 1.6 Ounce (Pack of 1) Style: Small Granules
I found my beta wasn’t really eating the pellets and started eating the tropical flakes which I know aren’t good for them due to low protein, so got these as a food for all while I was out of town. When I got back, the Beta was moved back to his little 2 gallon tank he’s a lot happier in but still refused to eat the pellets. He spits them right back out. But wow if he gets these bug bites he goes nuts! Swimming back and forth, following me around the room he absolutely LOVES them! He’s also a lot more active and seems healthier than the pellets so this is his new food. Very happy with them, great value and you get a lot for the price! ... show more

  • Good purchase. The fish love them!

My fish love these granules. They do sink down when you put them in. But they get excited when they see them.
