Vitalis Flakes

Vitalis flakes allow feeding versatility in community aquariums containing fish of different sizes. Highly digestible and nutritionally balanced, they can also be broken down for small species and juvenile fish.

Vitalis Pellets

Vitalis pellets are made using low temperature extrusion techniques. This produces soft malleable pellets which are more attractive to the fish and easily digested. Our pellets are made in a variety of diameters, with sizes tailored to aid digestion in fish kept in the home aquarium.

The Vitalis Grazer range is designed specifically for grazing species. These unique water stable rings have been developed to remain in the aquarium for consumption by the fish throughout the day. Allowing you to witness your fish feeding as they would in the wild.
