About Hikari
Hikari, the “originator” of Species Specific and premium aquatics diets has been copied by many, but our loyal customers know they can always depend on our products to offer their aquatic pets the finest in scientifically balanced nutrition. For almost 140 years we’ve spent considerable time exploring natural habitats of fish, breeding fish in our own facilities, producing diets in our own factories, processing every shipment through our own facilities and researching the impact our diets have over time. These unique insights into the nutritional needs of fish give a competitive advantage no other fish food maker can duplicate and allow us to produce species specific diets that will not only maintain your aquatic pets’ health, but assist you in keeping your aquarium or pond in top form.
We make the health and longevity of the fish and the aquatic environment they live in our first priority. Focusing on bringing about success to the hobbyist through exacting nutrition has allowed us to develop a brand name synonymous with superior quality. Consider using Hikari, because you love your aquatic pets as much as they love you!
Why Customers Choose Hikari
RESEARCH
We feel it’s our duty to constantly investigate the natural ecology of fish to make the best food for them. Our exploration to Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi in Africa, Guiana highland, the Indian Ocean, the jungle of Southeast Asia and the Holy River Ayeyawady and others, offer us many secrets to fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, water conditions and quality.
SPECIES SPECIFIC DIETS
Hikari offers a wide variety of diets for different species of fish, each offering unique characteristics which enable it to be readily accepted by the specific fish it was developed for, which is where Species Specific originated. This attention to detail allows you to be confident your choice will be quickly devoured by even the most finicky eaters.
TECHNOLOGY
Our first hand experience breeding and raising fish, and the scientific data we can collect during this process, give us a clear road map for future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari uses actual experience and physical practice instead of marketing schemes or unproven theory to develop our premium aquatic diets!

I have been using Hikari vibra bites exclusively for raising predatory cichlids. Young predatory cichlids can be very picky with their food and easily be addicted to live or frozen brine shrimp, krill, and especially blood worms. Getting the to transition to a well made pellet or flake can be hard. I have lost very nice fish using the starving method to get them to give into eating pellets. Hikari Vibra bites have always been VERY successful. In my opinion the perfect food for young carnivore/ predatory cichlids. And they will grow very FAST and LARGE with Hikari Vibra bites. I have used broken up Hikari Carnivore and Massivore Pellets in the past. Vibra bites is a better choice and when these cichlids get bigger trasitioning them with those bigger pellets is easy. I have grown HUGE cichlids starting them on Vibra bites which they all aggressively love until they outgrow the size of the worm like food. The common African Jewels love them. I also have grown their bigger cousins also. My favorite cichlids is Hemichromis. Many 7 inch Male Hemichromis Elongatus (the Five Star Generals), 10 inch Frempongis, and a few 11 inch Fasciatus using Vibra bites. Many Hemichromis will choose to happily eat Vibra bites their entire lives. The predatory Haps love them too. The Nimbos especially; Fuscos, Livingstoni, Malawi Eye Biters. Tyrannochromis will devour this as well. All young Parachromis; Dovii, Managuense, Red Tiger Motas, Fredstalis easily fall in love with Vibra bites. Umbriferum, Festae, Trimacs, Grammode, Salvini, Herichthys, of course Oscars, and predatory Tilapia will all greedily take this staple. Amazinly & surprisingly I have also had success using Vibra bites with young Serrasalmus. Black and red.I am so impressed with Vibra bites as the starting staple for Carnivorous fish. I cannot emphasize enough that young carnivorous fish will grow fast and very large using Vibra bites. I leave this review for the Largest bulk size available for Vibra bites as it is the best value and deal for this staple. You can see the above fish are all very aggressive, territorial, and robust cichlids. I have grown very outgoing, beautiful and healthy fish with this staple. Let me end by sharing with you that the majority of the above stated fish will start to breed before they even transition to bigger food.

Pretty happy with this fish food. Fish are happy and healthy. The pellets float for a small amount of time so both top and bottom feeder fish get their chance to eat them.

This food is great and this price can not be beat. If you have a lot of big fish that love bloodworms then they will also love this food. My Cichlids go crazy for it
