How to choose a food assortment

A food assortment gives several foods from one jar and makes varied feeding easy.

  • For your fish

    Pick the mix by your animals: general, for bettas, for small fish or for shrimp.

    Feed from a different compartment each time so the fish get every food over the week.

Frequently asked questions

Can a food assortment be the only food?

Yes, if the maker intends the mix as a staple food. For variety, add some natural food now and then.

Why is the jar divided into compartments?

Each compartment holds a different food that does not mix with the others. That lets you choose what to give each time.

A fish that lives on a single food gets fewer different nutrients than one with a varied menu. A food assortment solves this simply: the jar is split into compartments, each holding a different food. That keeps varied feeding at hand without a shelf of jars.

The range includes four-part mixes for all aquarium fish, a mix for bettas, a finer mix for small fish, one for shrimp and crayfish and a mix of crisps. The compartments hold, for example, flakes, granules, sticks, crisps or dried larvae that differ in size and make-up.

Do not tip in every compartment at once: give one food per feed and switch next time. Feed only what the fish eat within a couple of minutes. Keep the jar tightly closed in a dry place so the food does not get damp.
