## Overview

Fluval Bug Bites Color Enhancing Fish Food is a 4.4 oz premium granule formula designed for medium to large tropical fish. Featuring 40% nutrient-dense Black Soldier Fly Larvae as the primary ingredient, it delivers high-quality proteins including whole salmon rich in Omega 3 & 6, plus shrimp-derived astaxanthin to enhance natural fish coloration. The slow sinking 5-7mm granules cater to all feeding depths, while small-batch sustainable processing guarantees freshness and superior nutrition for vibrant, healthy fish at all life stages.

## Description

Fluval Bug Bites is a complete fish food that features a unique insect-based formulation, enriched with multiple quality proteins and carbohydrates that are ideal for tropical fish such as bettas, goldfish, cichlids, guppies, and tetras. Bug Bites’ daily diet color enhancing formula contains a significant amount of shrimp (a source of astaxanthin), which boosts the natural pigmentation in tropical fish. Insects are hunted by fish in the wild as they offer a widely available food source. The instinctive feeding habit is the foundation behind Bug Bites, which are formulated with nutrient-rich insect larvae and enriched with multiple quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements. Most freshwater fish are omnivores and regularly feed on insects in the wild. However, not all insects are created equally when it comes to a fish’s diet. Bug Bites are formulated with sustainably harvested Black Soldier Fly Larvae (#1 ingredient across all formulas), which are raised on fruits and vegetables for exceptional “super food” nutrition. Using a unique cultivation process, BSFL are grown under controlled conditions for total sustainability that preserves natural environments. Under controlled conditions, Black Soldier Flies produce larvae, which naturally feed on decaying organic matter. Unconsumed fruits and vegetables are used as larvae feed. The larvae consume the feed, converting the nutrients into protein and healthy fat. After a 2-week feeding cycle, the larvae are harvested and dried. The dried larvae are mixed with other high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals and trace elements to offer a complete and balanced daily diet. In addition to BSFL, Bug Bites offer other excellent protein sources such as Herring & Shrimp Meal, which are also rich in Omega-3 for healthy skin, scales, fins and colors. Unlike big brand fish foods, Bug Bites are always prepared in small batches for superior control and quality assurance. The proximity of our ingredients (most of which are delivered right before production) also offers maximum freshness, which translates into better palatability.

Review: Great quality and love that they sink for my shrimp - Love these for my guppies and Yellow Neocaridina davidi shrimp. They help with the color and I haven't noticed any spikes in the water column. I use these as a treat for the guppies and the shrimp love them too!
Review: Bug Bites, Great product! - This is a great product fish love it! The granules are perfect size for fish like Angels to tetras. I recommend all Bug bite products because they are made of fly larvae. And I like the fact that my fish are getting that natural nutrients meant for fish.
