new life spectrum vs hikari

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yeah, the knock on NLS is that their pellets tend to be too small.

FYI - New Life makes pellets as large as 7.5 mm. (Extra Large Fish formula)

NLS - for africans..
Hikari - for ]v[onsters..

:iagree: Depends what you feeding. I use hikari and never used NLS but people that I talk to that have africans all swear by it. Although I'm about to give Omega One a try.

hikari 4 life..

en71ce pm me if you want to know lfs who stock 1kilo bags of hikari food sticks for $80..
Whoa, that's double what they cost here...
Hikari does the trick for the Aro food sticks...Just take a whiff and you'll know what I mean...
 
After converting my fish to NLS, I'll never go back. Ocean Nutrition pellets are also very good.

also comes in jumbo. as far as preference i pick nls as far my fish. they eat both but i get 5lb tubs for 49.00 as oppossed to $9-$10 for 8oz bgs 8 times a year.
 
Correct, New Life also sells a 1/2 wafer. A friend of mine feeds the wafers to his motoro, and the 7.5 mm Ex. Lg. Fish to his aro.

I've also successfully gotten south american puffers to eat 1mm and 3 mm formulas. It took 21 days before my RTG ate pellets. Wait him out.
