About Hikari
Hikari, the “originator” of Species Specific and premium aquatics diets has been copied by many, but our loyal customers know they can always depend on our products to offer their aquatic pets the finest in scientifically balanced nutrition. For almost 140 years we’ve spent considerable time exploring natural habitats of fish, breeding fish in our own facilities, producing diets in our own factories, processing every shipment through our own facilities and researching the impact our diets have over time. These unique insights into the nutritional needs of fish give a competitive advantage no other fish food maker can duplicate and allow us to produce species specific diets that will not only maintain your aquatic pets’ health, but assist you in keeping your aquarium or pond in top form.
We make the health and longevity of the fish and the aquatic environment they live in our first priority. Focusing on bringing about success to the hobbyist through exacting nutrition has allowed us to develop a brand name synonymous with superior quality. Consider using Hikari, because you love your aquatic pets as much as they love you!
Why Customers Choose Hikari

RESEARCH
We feel it’s our duty to constantly investigate the natural ecology of fish to make the best food for them. Our exploration to Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi in Africa, Guiana highland, the Indian Ocean, the jungle of Southeast Asia and the Holy River Ayeyawady and others, offer us many secrets to fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, water conditions and quality.

SPECIES SPECIFIC DIETS
Hikari offers a wide variety of diets for different species of fish, each offering unique characteristics which enable it to be readily accepted by the specific fish it was developed for, which is where Species Specific originated. This attention to detail allows you to be confident your choice will be quickly devoured by even the most finicky eaters.

TECHNOLOGY
Our first hand experience breeding and raising fish, and the scientific data we can collect during this process, give us a clear road map for future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari uses actual experience and physical practice instead of marketing schemes or unproven theory to develop our premium aquatic diets!

Customers say
Customers find this fish food to be of high quality, with one noting it’s the best small marine pellet available, and they appreciate its functionality in auto feeders. The pellets come in the right size for smaller fish and sink slowly, though some mention they don’t sink on their own at all. The smell receives mixed reactions, with some saying it smells good while others find it horrible, and durability is also mixed, with some reporting they fall apart quickly. The product offers good value for money.

Sink Fast For Less Waste
Iâve found that these pellets sink much faster than the alternatives Iâve tried. This makes it much less likely for the pellets to go straight into my overflow box. Would be great for someone using an auto feeder. My fish love them!

A Quality Food Your Fish Will Love
These Hikari Marine-S Pellets are like the gourmet sushi of the fish food world. My clownfish now give me the VIP wave every time I approach the tankâtotal rockstar treatment. The pellets are just the right size for their tiny fishy mouths, and I swear they’re swimming faster and showing off more since starting this diet. Bonus: no fishy smell, so your kitchen won’t feel like a pier. It’s like meal prep for fish with zero effort! Highly recommend if you want happy, well-fed, and slightly smug marine buddies.

Great feed.

Fishes loves em.
Only problem is once they reach area where water filter releases water, they have a tendency to sink at that point, and sink fast. If not, I’d definitely give 5 stars seeing as how much the fishes love them.Backstory: My niece’s fishes stopped eating brime shrimp. Tried flakes first (wasn’t my preferred choice and brand, but her brother wanted them), and they’ll tolerate those but only really eat if they’re really hungry. Finally tried these (hikari I’ve always liked and trusted back when I myself had an aquarium) and they very happily gobble these up.

Mis peces payaso comen con mucha gana este tipo de comida seca. Recomiendo para acuarios donde se tiene puesto un dispensador de comida., para las vacaciones es crucial ya que no se estropea.
