Staple food for Ancistrus and other plecos

• quickly sinking chips for rasping and suckermouth catfish
• with fibers (e.g. from willow bark and stinging nettle) for healthy digestion
• retains its shape for 24 hours – does not pollute the water
• allows eating slowly and at night
• for feeding close to nature

Pleco Chips is the staple food without dyes and preservatives for rasping and suckermouth bottom fish such as Ancistrus and other plecos.

The balanced composition with a high amount of fibers (from willow bark and stinging nettle, among others), as well as natural spirulina, supports healthy digestion and development.

The quickly sinking chips become smooth in water, retain their shape for at least 24 hours, and do not pollute the water. They therefore allow the mainly nocturnal catfish eating slowly without any problems, which meets their natural feeding habits.

Appropriate nutrition for catfish

Catfish are usually rather shy aquarium inhabitants, some of which only come out at night and search for food either in the bottom substrate or by rasping and with suction. Accordingly, they require food that sinks to the bottom and retains its shape for a long time. Most catfish are omnivorous, but there are some species that mainly prefer plant-based food (e.g. loricariids) or animal-based food (e.g. Corydoras). sera offers three staple foods for catfish whose different composition and structure optimally meet the specific requirements.

All sera aquarium foods belong to the "Nature" range and do not require any dyes or preservatives.
