"Great food, but expensive" |
I've been feeding primarily this to my Cichlids for about 2 years, and have never gotten a case of bloat since. I took the advice of my LFS and began mixing the Ultima with VeggieFX which cuts costs a bit, but also provides a lower protein content than just Ultima for some of the more veggie-oriented cichlids (mostly the labs). When I first started on this food, I could get a 1.1 lb bag for about 20$, which would last at least 2 months. Now, I'm lucky to find an 8.8oz bag locally for less than 20!
I've contemplated switching to feeding primarily NLS to save money (I feed it to my community tank), but that would be a hard decision considering how well my fish take to this food.
The food itself tends to sink pretty quickly, but will float on surface tension longer than NLS, which gives the fish a bit more time to grab it. The pellets are shapes like short cylinders as opposed to spheres, and that shape allows them tumble as they sink, which slows them down just a bit. I also wish they had a 4mm pellet size (the small is 3mm, the medium is 5mm), but that's just me being picky.
Overall a great food, but the price has been rising steadily over the past few years. |

"Wow, amazing product" |
I've bought some Dainich Ultima, along with Veggie Deluxe, Primary Krill, and Color Supreme to test how this fairs with NLS. But since this is only a review for Cichlid Ultima, I will focus on this. When I first opened the package, it smelled fresh, similar to NLS. Feeding is clean. The floating forumla and sinking formula vary in size by .5mm. This stuff rocks. It doesn't leave any residue on the water's surface or dirty the water like NLS. Don't get me wrong, NLS is a great product, but this product seems to work well. Even though it contains ahigher protein content than NLS(mostly from spirulina and krill), these are easy to digest and will not lead to bloat if fed correctly. What's cool is that each pellet is encapsulated with a coating of vitamins and clay to help with digestion. So far, this product is great and I would buy again. NLS is the benchmark for all fish food companies, but Dainichi has taken premium food to the next level, making it fresh. |

"Your fish won't even know they're eating in captivity!" |
I'v been in the hobby for quite some time, and I've tried all the better foods available(NLS included), but this food has the two ingredients that are missing from all others. Cyclop-Eeze, & Montmorillonite Clay. In addition to these ingredients, the spirulina is uncooked, preserved in it's natural state, and anyone who knows about greens be it vegetables or fish food vegi's, cooking the greens and then drying them out is depleting the food of all it's natural benefits. Also the montmorillonite clay has a scouring effect that enhances digestion, making it vitually impossible for bloat. In addition to all these great benefits, the vitamin and mineral mix is added lastly in a coting that encapsulates the pellet, making sure the vitamins are not cooked and preserved also in thier natural state! I recommend Cichlid Color FX & Cichlid Vegi FX. Best food on the market...hands down!! Try it and you'll agree. I just can't believe there aren't a whole lot of people that know about this great food yet? |
