Key benefits: 60/40 blend of Xtreme Krill and Spirulina Flakes 42% minimum crude protein Suitable as an everyday food for many tropical community fish Easy to crumble for smaller fish Great choice for mixed community aquariums Available in sizes from 14g through to 454g Our number one selling fish food for 2 years straight Who Is It For? We recommend Community Crave for small to medium tropical community fish that readily accept flake foods, including many: Tetras Guppies and other livebearers Rasboras Gouramis Rainbowfish Barbs Danios Smaller cichlids Other omnivorous community fish For bottom-feeding species such as Corydoras and plecos, we recommend also providing an appropriate sinking pellet or wafer so they receive food directly. Which Size Should I Buy? 14g–28g: Great for smaller aquariums, trying the food for the first time or households with only a few fish. 56g–98g: Our pick for most regularly fed home community aquariums. 227g–454g: Best value for large aquariums, multiple tanks or fish rooms where you go through a lot of food. Keeping fish food fresh matters, so we generally recommend buying a size you'll use consistently rather than automatically choosing the largest container. How Do I Feed It? Feed a small amount once or twice daily, offering only what your fish can comfortably consume within a few minutes. The flakes can be crumbled between your fingers for smaller fish or left larger for bigger community fish. Avoid overfeeding. If significant food is reaching the bottom uneaten, reduce the amount offered at the next feeding. For the best variety, Community Crave can also be rotated with other quality foods such as pellets, frozen foods or species-specific diets. Guaranteed Analysis Crude Protein: 42% minimum Crude Fat: 11% minimum Crude Fibre: 4% maximum Phosphorus: 1% minimum Moisture: 10% maximum Ash: 12% maximum Simply Fish Recommends If you've got a typical mixed tropical community aquarium and just want a genuinely good everyday flake, Community Crave is one of our first choices. It's especially useful in tanks containing several different species because the flakes can easily be broken into different sizes and distributed across the aquarium. For a more complete feeding routine, we'd pair Community Crave with a quality sinking food for bottom feeders and occasionally rotate in frozen or other specialist foods. FAQ Is Xtreme Community Crave suitable for everyday feeding?Yes. It is a versatile flake food that works well as a staple diet for many tropical community fish.

Can I feed Community Crave to small fish?Yes. Simply crumble the flakes into smaller pieces before feeding. Is it suitable for bottom feeders?Bottom feeders may eat flakes that reach them, but we'd recommend using an appropriate sinking pellet or wafer as well to make sure species such as Corydoras and plecos are properly fed.

Its versatile flake format is particularly convenient for mixed tropical aquariums containing fish of different sizes. Which size offers the best value?Larger containers generally suit households feeding multiple or heavily stocked tanks, but for most home aquariums we'd choose a size that will be used regularly while the food remains fresh.
