Dymax Tropical Flakes Essential – Floating Flakes for Community Tropical Fish
Specially formulated for freshwater tropical fish, Dymax Tropical Flakes Essential provides a premium daily diet that supports digestion, immunity, and vibrant colouration. These floating flakes are ideal for popular community species such as angelfish, tetras, guppies, mollies, barbs, and more.
- Community-friendly floating flakes: Premium flake diet designed for a wide range of tropical community fish, encouraging natural mid–top water feeding.
- Digestive & immune support: Enriched with prebiotics and β-glucan to aid nutrient absorption, reduce waste, and help strengthen the immune system.
- Natural colour enhancers: Contains spirulina and astaxanthin to promote vivid, healthy colouration.
- Palatable, nutritious blend: Made with high-quality fish and krill meals plus garlic, vitamins, and minerals for excellent acceptance and overall vitality.
- Balanced daily nutrition: Protein level around 40% to support steady growth and energy without clouding the water.
Feed 2–3 times daily, offering only as much as your fish will consume within 5 minutes. Remove any uneaten flakes to maintain water quality.
