## Description

Features:COLOR FX represents the most progressive advances in cichlid nutrition we have ever offered to cichlid hobbyists. Utilizing Dainichi's advanced encapsulation technology to the fullest, this outstanding formula is packed with features found in no other food brand in the industry. For starters, there are an unprecedented seven applications of highly nutritious as well as potent color intensifiers like shrimp, Antarctic krill, Cyclop-eeze, NatuRose (Haematococcus algae) and raw, un-cooked spirulina. As in all Dainichi foods, there is calcium montmorillonite clay to simulate the natural ingestion of mineral particles and to bind and neutralize metabolic toxins. Raw, fully potent vitamins, digestive enzymes and garlic ensure that the fish are healthy and free of internal parasites. Furthermore, the scouring action of the clay enhances the rejuvenation of the digestive tract which when combined with only two sources of starch (flour as binder and wheat germ as a source of vitamin E and B) makes COLOR FX a superb choice of food for even the most delicate of herbivores.Ingredients:White fish meal, wheat germ, wheat flour, shrimp meal, soybean meal, spirulina, krill, Cyclop-eeze, brewer’s yeast, calcium montmorillonite clay, powdered milk, vitamin mix, mineral mix, garlic, NatuRose (Haematococcus algae), protease and natural gum.Guaranteed Analysis: Min.crude protein: 45% Min. crude fat: 7% Max. crude fiber: 3% Max. moisture: 9% Max. ash: 9%

Review: Better than NLS - Have used both however this is a superior product. NLS leads to a messy tank and a canister filter, in cleaning that looks like you have a mud substrate. Dainichi gives consistent colors, active robust tropheus. NLS gives coloration but the consistency varies with batches and oh my what a messy tank. I'm unto Dainichi and off the NLS bandwagon. Cheap it is and probably good for fish farmers or breeders but not necessarily for hobbyists with a show tank.
Review: They thrive…. - My cichlids love this food…they’ve been eating this for years. An occasional dried shrimp, algie discs for the algie eaters and everyone’s happy.

Have used both however this is a superior product. NLS leads to a messy tank and a canister filter, in cleaning that looks like you have a mud substrate.
