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!

On my subscribe and save
My 5 Goldieâs and 1 of my 2 Coryâs go crazy for this stuff. Iâm thoroughly entertained and enjoy watching them eat this. This sends them darting through the water to catch a bite as if in their natural element since itâs easily circulated throughout the tank by the flow of the water filtration system rather than pellets that float on the surface requiring no effort. One cube is way too much. I cut it in half and place in a bit of water to soften. Then, pour the food in the tank and watch them go. On my subscribe and save.

Great supplement for all fish
Hikari Bio-Freeze Dried Spirulina is a great supplemental feeding item for all the fish I have in my aquarium. My tiger, rosy, and cherry barbs all enjoy feeding on this product. It creates a feeding frenzy in my tank. I know that the Spirulina provides a myriad of health benefits for the fish. The remnants of the Spirulina that actually make it to the bottom of the tank are devoured by my corydoras. I feel better knowing that I’m providing my fish a healthy diet with Hikari Bio-Pure Freeze Dried Spirulina. The only downside is the price. However, I often purchase it through Amazon when they (the Spirulina) is available in a two-pack. I do recommend this product highly. It arrived quickly. It was packaged perfectly. I’m satisfied with the purchase.

My fish love it!
My fish found this to be a yummy treat, didn’t cloud the water, but if not careful when you crumble it into water can turn powdery. My only criticism is there was a lot of this powdery brine shrimp in bottom of container so it’s a bit fragile, but my fish were all over it when I dropped it in tank so that is the true test!

NOT FOR BETTAS
It’s ok, but really not meant for Bettas, even though I do feed it to mine. He likes it, but isn’t too nuts over it like he is with the bloodworms. Major issue with this product is the fact that its in cubes which need to be totally broken down to tiny pieces to feed to a Betta fish. It’s a lot of work and quite messy. And because of the very brittle tiny pieces you get when it’s broken apart for your Betta, they tend to scatter like a powder all over the water surface, which just makes a huge mess. The Betta will not touch the cube as a whole, so it does need to be broken up. Honestly, I can see this food as a great product for other much larger fish, but definitely not for Bettas — at least not mine anyways.

Good and Quality Tropical Fish Food
I purchased these Freeze Dried Brine shrimp to feed to a crew of young Electric Blue Jack Dempsey’s and a small Black Ghost Knife Fish. I had previously been feeding them blood worms and some flakes, so I wanted to add something to their diet to switch things up. The brine shrimp comes out in cubes which fall apart when water is added to it. I’ve been feeding them this food for about three weeks now and my little guys love it. I always just hold a piece of the brine shrimp in my tank, initially it was to let it soak and then break it into pieces, but now my Jacks actually love it so much they just come up and start munching on it while it’s in my fingers. It’s helping them grow and bringing out the colors. That with them liking the food so much makes this a quality food product for the aquarium. I am getting more to start feeding to my angels other tropical fish.

This product is a rip-off, the weight is the entire weight not one portion that can be broke up, Fish love it though but definitely not worth it big mistake
