Im pretty sure that those are also the same formula as well, just in different shapes.
But yeah thats a pretty good statement although i also use the sinking algae wafers and floating gold. But only the gold because im unemployed atm and cant afford the massivore

Your right, they are the same formula just different sizes for different stages of fish lives. My peacock bass are all on the larger Hikari types.
 
Variety.. part of my variety is HIkari.. because I have some old bags of it yet to be used up.. my fish prefer NLS after they tried it. i pay 1/2 as much for NLS as I would on massivore. and imo NLS is a better foor.. I also like Omega one... but as already stated.. read the fun thread... and I agree as well.. there is worse foods then hikari out there.

Massivore blows my dudes up fast and it never makes it to the bottom !



So by that logic, eating a ton of high calorie and high protein food and using steroids to bulk up fast equals healthy? Sure, you might look "good" on the outside...
 
My angels seem to like cichlid gold, and have been getting darker stripes since I added it to their mix, but they are also maturing so, that would also explain things.
I can't really tell a difference in the goldfish between feeding Hikari and Wardley.
I like Omega One's vegie wafers, and my LFS trades them out cheap.

Yeah you want to buy Hikari Massivore Delight, Carnivore Delight, Food Sticks, or Jumbo Carnisticks. Those are the only Hikari products line I use. You will also notice that these are also the most expensive food from Hikari as well.

Aren't those all the same food, just packaged and formed differently ? Expensive doesn't always relate to quality , nor value. :popcorn:
 
Variety is always the key,most people on these food topics just repeat what they hear others say. I have fed alot of different foods and still do Hikari being one of them.
I have never taken my fish to a lab or had a scientist on hand to evaluate my fish etc. Never heard of a fish dying from eating Hikari,Nls etc so whcich ever food you choose for your staple make sure you get some type of variety, No one food can provide all your fish needs( I dont care who makes it).
 
Much much more prefer Hikari over NLS. My rays, aros and SD's are all taking Massivore. Rays and SD's are on 95% Massivore, Aro's are 20% Massivore 80% MP's.
 
The NLS looks like a great product to but I think I will feed a little of the NLS and Hikari to balance his diet. The Hikari doesn't have all the corn fillers like the Wardley's or some other pellet foods.....
 
Love hikari. I also feed a ton of other stuff but hikari pellets have been the staple diet of my fish for many years. They are the cleanest and most palatable pellet I have found

That being said I wouldn't say it is a good idea to feed your fish only 1 kind of pellet with no variety.

In a week my motoro eats

Tilapia
tiger shrimp
hikari food sticks
massivore
NlS pellets
Sinking cichlid gold

I also supplement his food with garlic guard and seachem nourish vitamins
