Product Description
About Omega One
In 1998 in Sitka, Alaska, two brothers invented and patented the process of making fish foods directly from wild-caught, fresh Alaskan seafood. Omega One LLC, the company, was founded, and Omega One, the brand, was introduced. This revolutionary concept broke the mold in a 40-year industry, providing hobbyists with a brand of unsurpassed quality and nutrition. Unlike other fish foods on the market, you will see that there is no fishmeal in our foods. Instead, we use Alaskan seafood such as salmon, herring, and shrimp for our protein sources. These ingredients, rich in natural fats and proteins, are purchased direct from sustainable Alaskan fisheries.
From the Sea to the Shelf
THE INGREDIENTS MATTER
Omega One increases fish immunity. It is made directly from superfoods like salmon and herring, which are loaded with Omega 3 & 6 fatty acids. These essential fatty acids provide energy and strengthen the delicate fish immune system, leading to decreased rates of disease and mortality.
MEAL-FREE NUTRITION
Omega One fish foods are meal-free and made from the freshest cold-water proteins. When you start with raw, unprocessed proteins like we do and cook them just once, they naturally bind together creating an impenetrable bond, leaving your aquarium cleaner.
NATURAL COLOR ENHANCEMENT
Our ingredients contain a high level of naturally occurring pigments called beta-carotenes. With nearly a 100% transfer rate to the skin of ornamental fish, these beta-carotenes will restore the true colors of your fish, making them as vibrant as they are healthy.
Freshwater Flakes
Delicious recipe of fresh, cold water seafood blended specifically to enhance the levels of Omega 6 fatty acids. Omega 6 fatty acids are extremely valuable to freshwater species for strong immune systems and cell wall development. Low ash and higher quality proteins mean less pollution in the tank.
Super Color Cichlid Pellets – Floating
Small, medium, and large pellets for all types and sizes of cichlids. Offer superb color enhancement, with unsurpassed nutrition and palatability.
Garlic Marine Flakes
A nutritious mix of seafood ingredients is combined with the optimal amount of spirulina to make this an excellent diet for the community saltwater tank. A strong Omega 3 Fatty Acid profile supports the delicate immune systems of saltwater fish while garlic provides incredible palatability and parasite resistance.
Goldfish Flakes
Omega One Goldfish Flakes are formulated with higher levels of quality proteins and fats than other goldfish foods. This recipe contains a strong Omega Fatty Acid profile, which has been shown to be beneficial for growth and long-term health. Fresh ocean kelp provides critical nutrients and aids in digestion.

Great quality happy fish
I have been buying this over and over because I am happy how long my fish live and how healthy and colorful they are.I have used it for all purpose, from regular feeding of my fish, to feeding newly hatched fry and growing up to adult size without providing any other special diet. my fish do make a lot of babies and are good parents so every few months I end up with a new batch and for the most part they end up growing to adult size with this food. My fish color is very bright and they seem very happy. My water does not get too dirty. This is a great product.

Fish are more vivid colors, and it’s a better value than I thought
I’m pretty new to fish keeping and had been using a couple different kinds of Tetramin flakes; after reading more about foods and realizing that a lot of them including Tetramin are largely made of stuff that’s not seafood, and thinking that better nutrition may help my fish live longer and healthier lives, I started reading labels and this product looked to have the highest quality ingredients, so I decided to buy it even though it was a lot more $ than what I was paying locally for Tetramin.The first good news is that this is a very big jar of food. I wasn’t paying attention to the ounces but for some reason was thinking it would be about the same size as the Tetramin I’d been buying for around half the price locally. Actually more than 5 times as much food. (My previous food was only 1 ounce, this is 5.3.)The second good news is that within a couple weeks my tetras’ colors were markedly more vivid (neons, black neons, and glowlights–especially the blue of the nons), and I also have a neon blue Mickey Mouse platy whose color is noticeably more blue and iridescent. My blue/rust-colored Betta, red platies, sunset platies, and orange swordtails were pretty vivid to begin with so I’m not really sure if their colors are richer now or not. But I’m definitely impressed at how great the others look!And of course I’m confident this food is better for them, since it is made mostly of several kinds of seafood. It took them a few days to get used to it but now they gobble it up.

Fish love it
We switched our fish to this food and it’s made a remarkable difference. Our fish love it. They’ve also lived a lot longer than the fish we had on the other food. We had a fish dying like once every 1-2 months until we switched.

Very small flakes
90 percent of the flakes were crushed.Could happen in shipping. They are ok for small fish but not for 3in. cichlids.I shut all my filters off while feeding to prevent the food from polluting the tank. The flakes do seem to have the best ingreedients.

Best stuff ever
I have to say i am very pleased with omega one products to begin with. I use this in my community tank 55 gal. They all love it and go crazy over these flakes. Great ingredients and not just fish meal and meal products . I use this to feed my oscars, corey’s, dragon goby’s, feather fin catfish and even my goldfish. It is worth the money for what is inside . Best place to purchase is from here as it is more cost effect especially for the amount of tanks and fish i have to feed daily. I only buy omega one and will continue to feed my fish this because of the ingredients in it. I did purchase this at full price and this is my honest and unbiased thoughts.

My go to freshwater fish food
I’ve been using this product for about 7 years. I also add shrimp pellets for tanks with bottom feeders and shrimp. If you rub the flakes between your fingers it will be small enough for fry to eat if you don’t want to buy specialized food for fry. Using with guppies, platys, golden white clouds, giant danios, neo shrimp, corydoras, snails, marbled crayfish, zebra loaches.

Fish vets agree, you know a food is good quality when you open it up and it smells like fish (plus you can read the ingredients, which are great). Great food, good deal.

I feed this flake to several species of fish and they all readily accept it. I get great results as far as growth rate and it also doesn’t cloud the water.
