Fish

Like most pets, it’s important to feed your fish a healthy, balanced diet designed for their delicate digestive systems. Available in a variety of types, depending on the species, it’s important to find the right food for your fish. You can also use supplement flakes and pellets with small amounts of other foods to keep their diet varied and nutritious.

Depending on whether you keep freshwater or tropical fish, you’ll need food with a particular balance of nutrients. Freshwater fish food often contains more phosphates than tropical fish food, while tropical fish flakes are carefully designed for a slow release of nutrients once they hit the water.

The most important thing to remember is that underfeeding your fish is better than overfeeding them. If you overfeed, this could impact the quality of the water, which is potentially fatal.
