best first choice
Community Granules Small
New to feeding a peaceful mixed tank? Start with Community Granules Small. The smaller size makes it easy for common community fish like tetras, guppies, rasboras, danios, and corydoras to share as an everyday staple food.
For Larger Community Fish
Community Granules Original
Choose Community Granules Original if your tank has larger community fish or fish that prefer a more visible bite. It works well as a daily staple for peaceful mixed tanks with medium-sized appetites.
For Small Livebearers
Guppy Granulettes
Fine 0.4–0.6 mm granulettes made for guppies, Endlers, and other small-mouthed livebearers. The slow-sinking size makes them easy to catch while providing a dependable daily staple.
Community Tank Feeding Guide
Choose the Right Size
Match the food to your fish’s mouth size and tank mix.
Small fish & tiny mouths
Best for tetras, rasboras, gouramis, and livebearers, sinking granules promote natureal feeding behaviors. The ultra-small 0.5mm sinking pellets are perfect for tanks with corys and dwarf bottom feeders.
Mixed adult community tank
Best for peaceful mixed tanks with different mouth sizes and adult community fish.
Larger peaceful community fish
Best for bigger peaceful community fish like discus, angels, and dwarf and hybrid cichlids. The sinking 1mm pellets are perfect for corys, loaches, and all types of bottom feeders.

Choose a Daily Staple

Add Treat Rotation
Rotate freeze-dried treats a few times per week alongside your staple food to add variety to the tank.
