Sera Flora Flakes, 10L

A varied, high-quality diet is essential for maintaining healthy, colourful, and active fish in any aquarium. In their natural habitats, fish have access to a wide range of food sources, including insect larvae, worms, small crustaceans, algae, and numerous types of plants. This natural diversity should also be reflected in the diet of fish kept in an aquarium. With sera fish food, providing this variety is easy. In addition to the well-balanced, complete formulas of the sera Vipan family, the sera range offers a clear and comprehensive selection of specialist foods tailored to the specific needs of various species. Decades of research and expertise ensure that your fish always receive the best possible nutrition. Great care is taken in the selection of raw materials, with a strong emphasis on quality, natural purity, and responsible sourcing from sustainable suppliers. Like all animals, fish require a diverse array of nutrients, which must be supplied in adequate quantities through their diet. The form and bioavailability of these nutrients, as well as the optimal balance between them, vary depending on species, environmental conditions, and developmental stage. sera places particular emphasis on avoiding poorly digestible or unnecessary additives such as soybean meal, binding agents like guar gum, synthetic amino acids, artificial flavours, attractants, and preservatives such as ethoxyquin. Furthermore, all ingredients are non-GMO.

This food is part of the sera Nature product line, which contains no artificial colours or preservatives. A varied, natural diet is the best protection against nutritional deficiencies and supports the long-term health and vitality of your fish. That’s why products in the sera Nature line include high-quality natural ingredients such as Spirulina, krill, and sustainable insect meal from the black soldier fly (Hermetia). Ingredient icons on the front of each package clearly indicate the key components and their proportions in the formula.

sera Flora Flakes is a plant-based ornamental fish food designed to support healthy digestion and boost vitality. It contains naturally high-fibre ingredients, such as Spirulina rich in carotenoids, and is formulated with a high proportion of plant protein. This makes it especially suitable for herbivorous and omnivorous fish, as well as for fish recovering from digestive issues or illness.

The flakes are form-stable, float on the surface, and do not cloud the water, making them ideal for all surface-feeding ornamental fish.

Feeding recommendation:
Feed sera Flora Flakes 1-2 times a day in small portions. Feed juvenile fish 3-6 times a day (you can also crumble the flakes and sprinkle them on the water surface). Feed only as much as the fish can consume in a few minutes. Any food remains visible after an hour should be suctioned up and discarded. Reduce the amount of food at the next feeding accordingly. Once opened, keep the jar tightly closed to preserve freshness and use it up within a few months.

Tip:
Set aside a fasting day at regular intervals to boost metabolism and promote natural feeding behaviour through active foraging. The main food can be supplemented with other sera foods to add variety to the daily diet of your fish.
