Tetra also reminds aquarists that uneaten food can cause water-quality problems — hence the three-minute rule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTetra does not publish a guaranteed analysis on its product page: the exact TetraColor percentages are printed on the box label.

But with flakes, there's a little trick I always use: I pinch them between my fingers and dip them in the water for a few seconds before feeding. They soak up water and sink much better, instead of scattering across the surface and through the whole water column. It's simple, but it gives you much better control over the food and keeps it from ending up all over the tank. I also like to soak my food in Vita-Chem to improve color and strengthen the fish's immune system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy buy at ReefSolution\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDelivery across Canada or in-store pickup in Laval.
