I'm absolutely thrilled with the Xtreme Big Fella 3.0mm Pellets for my cichlids! The fish go crazy for them, and I've noticed a significant improvement in their color and vitality. The pellets are the perfect size, and they're easy to digest. My tank's water quality has remained stable, and the pellets don't cloud the water like some other foods I've tried. Highly recommend these pellets for any cichlid enthusiast! Read more

The media could not be loaded. My African cichlids really enjoy this particular food. It doesn’t cloud my water and it’s very cost-effective. Read more
All my cichlids love this formula. The only complaint I have seen from others is that the 3mm size is too small for "Big Fellas". I suggest buyers read the details of this product where it clearly states that it is 3mm, and buyers should judge in advance whether this is the size pellet they are looking for. Read more
There's no full ingredient on Amazon at the time of writing, so here's a picture of it. Yes, my variety of African cichlids gobble it up and Xtreme brand has a great reputation of quality. The shape is shockingly uniform and doesn't disintegrate quickly when it gets wet. The downside is that it contains Rice, Wheat, and Soy. For years, I've used only the grain-free food options, mostly from Your Fish Stuff. I've grown fish from fry, and maintained healthy adults off those foods. However, I thought getting something else in their diet with added vitamins might be a good idea, and finding grain-free fish food isn't easy. So, I've added some of this Xtreme food as a supplement to my daily regimen. It has many great ingredients, including vitamin supplementation, and good natural ingredients (like squid), that my fish aren't getting elsewhere. If you don't mind feeding your fish some grains, this is great food. Read more

Started out using flakes for my Goldfish and had swim bladder problems. Started using Hakari Excel sinking pellets the fish never looked so good but it was to small and got lost in the rocks real easy.Decided i needed a bigger sinking pellet.Tried the Extreme big fella. Goldfish took straight to it and are growing at a good pace.Inbetween the Extreme and the Hakari i tried Rapashy gel.I dont know what was wrong with that food but i lost 5 fish in less than a year before i realized it was the food.Went back to the Hakari and fish never looked so good.Was real nervous about trying to switch there food again but they love the Extreme food.I will never switch from Extreme Big Fella.
