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!

Fish food
My fish love these wafers! They sink slowly, so both top and mid-level feeders get a chance to eat, and they donât cloud the water like some other foods. The wafers are small enough for community tanks, and Iâve noticed my fish look brighter and more active since switching to this brand.The only reason I gave 4 instead of 5 stars is that the bag is a bit small for the price, so it runs out quickly if you have a lot of fish. Still, the quality is excellent, and Iâll definitely keep buying.

Great as always with Hikari.
Awesome food as always with Hikari, does not smell, sinks slow and fish love it! I use this one mainly with Betta fish, Rasboras, Tetras and bottom feeders like Corydoras and plecos.

Been using these for years
All of my fish love this food. I have used it for years and have very healthy and beautiful fish. I also use the sinking wafers for my loaches, plecos and cories. Very happy with this brand.

Fish Like It
My horde of Emerald Corydoras catfish devour these micro wafers as fast as possible. Hikari makes me feel like I am feeding the fish a quality product.

Good for small mouths
Perfect size for small mouths! I use for my freshwater angelfish and all saltwater fish (tanks, blenny) and they love it

Angel fish loves them!
My angel fish is a pig. I feed her a few of these first so she doesnât attack the other fish when I drop the flake in. They donât float long and sink really fast. Iâm not sure if the loach eats the sunken ones. Iâve started only feeding what the angel can grab before they sink, so about 4. They are super tiny. Much smaller than I was expecting. Overall, good purchase. Happy Angel = happy tank!

Clean, easy and very effective!
I love these! They are small enough for my tetras and platy fry (I mix with the same brands macro pelletes- which are smaller and perfect for really small fry).-They are small enough to go between rocks so my cory cats can eat too. But yet, they aren’t so small that they get lost to deeply between the rocks and just rot.-These are SO MUCH less messy to use than Flakes. I hate opening a flake lid and ending up with Flakes EVERY WHERE.-My fish LOVE them and their colors and stools are vibrant and healthy. My gourami, Kyle, is his most stunning since I have added these to his diet. His behavior is more interesting now too.. he hunts and really stays active searching the whole tank for missed morsels.. He actually ignores the other foods when I feed, and chases these waffers down. But they are small enough that many pieces still sink to the rest of the tank population before he gets them all, so everyone can eat fairly.

Love this brand for my tropical aquarium fish . It never makes my water cloudy – fish love the choices – and itâs provides the right bite size for all sizes of fish . The seller dispatched it next day and the Royal Mail posted in my letter box – love the service- will be getting more through my letterbox

Wie man es von Hikari gewohnt ist, top Qualität. Wird von allen gerne gefressen und bei uns sogar von einigen Futter heiklen Otocinclus, die man davor für kein einziges Fertigfutter begeistern konnte.

I pesci gradiscono molto e sono in ottima salute e colori.

Fish just love it. They sink in seconds which let’s them be enjoyed by all levels of fish. The guppies, Loaches, Swordtails, Mollies just can’t resist. Even my angelfish love them. Go for it.
