We are registered under Article 18 (3) of the EC Feed Hygiene Regulation (183/2005) to pack animal feeds. Our reference No. GB 144 0440.
Weighing equipment compliant with & approved by Trading Standards.

We believe in ordering in smaller quantities from our many manufacturers to keep fresh flake coming in regularly.
This of coarse means we have to pay more for the flake but our customers have always expected fresh foods.
Our sell by dates are not years in advance & we conservatively put 12 months on
our flake containers where many manufacturers put 3 years on.

None of these photos have been colour enhanced on the computer.
They really are that rich & dark in colour.


New Flakes now in stock including 2 more Spirulina flakes.

Black Flake

It's back - We had a game getting this made up again. It's a shrimp feed basically. Shrimp have thin stomach walls so black feed can be easily seen. What we found was livebearers took this with Spirulina flake. This is basically an Artemia (brine shrimp) based product
This is a very fine flake & not something you get in big flake. This is something for small or young fish.

Green & Black Flake

We blend this from our Spirulina & black artemia flakes. The flake size is small as this is used by livebearer breeders. Also good for smaller veggie eaters. Some livebearer breeders buy this regularly. We feed this to our Guppies.

Spirulina & Garlic + Flake

One of our own blends containing 50% Spirulina & 50% Garlic flakes. This is ideal for fish requiring a vegetarian diet including Rift Lake cichlids in this band.
Spirulina is well known to contain most of the vitamins & minerals vegetarian fish require. The garlic acts in cleaning out the long intestinal tract which is a characteristic with veggie fish. The length of the intestine is a good indicator of diet - a short one means a predator taking high animal protein (fish etc) & a long one for veggie fish. Veggie material takes longer to process in the gut hence the length of it. Feeding high animal proteins to a fish with a long intestine causes food to fester in the gut as it takes too long to pass through. Garlic helps in cleaning this out & prevents 'Malawi Bloat'.

Supreme Staple Flake

This is our own blend of Spirulina (2 sources + kelp), Beef Heart, Earthworm & Artemia flakes. It is ideal as a daily feed. We think it's the richest staple flake on the market but no more expensive than well known brand names of equal weight.
None of these flakes are mass produced. They are all made up with fresh ingredients in small batches.

Spirulina Flake

This flake is fantastically rich & deep green in colour. We have seen the 36% Spirulina content flake & to be honest it doesn't hold a candle to our flake. This algae has various properties including helping fish to increase disease resistance.
We feed this extensively to our fish (Guppies, Cichlids etc) & have supplied Rift Lake Cichlid breeders large amounts.
When you see the richness of this flake you will not look at another herbivore flake.
Analysis (Approx): Protein 53%, Fat 8%, Fibre 3%, Moisture 8%, vitamins A, D3, E, B12, K3.
Contains Dunialella, a red microalgae with a high content of beta carotene & Chlorella, a green algae with a high protein & fat level which growing fish need. See the 'Food Additives' page for pure Chlorella powder.

We sell hundreds of kilo's of this flake & sell out fast. In our opinion it's the best Spirulina flake on the market.

Now in larger flake sizes packed in buckets straight off the production line.

Made in the USA

'Received my order today thank you. I was surprised as I only ordered yesterday, I must say that I am very happy with the Beefheart flake, since feeding my Angelfish on this 4 pairs started to breed within two weeks and rear their own young, I'm sure this flake kickstarted something in them. Thanks again.' ...Allan Morris - Lincolnshire.

Garlic Flake

The medicinal properties of Garlic are not generally known. It contains allicin which is created when the bulb is damaged or crushed. This has known properties as an anti-microbial which destoys some bacteria. This is destroyed at pH 3 but it's unlikely you would keep fish at these levels.
Other properties of Garlic are still being discovered. Some fish keepers use it to prevent internal worms. Marine keepers have found it useful in preventing White Spot (Ichthyophthirius). Marine customers have reported Anthias, large Queen Angel, Tangs & Emporer Angels take it.

Analysis (Approx): Protein 40%; Lipids 10%; Ash 7%; Moisture 7·5%.

Earthworm Flake

In the past we have tried this flake from sources where the colour was very thin, pale & insipid looking. About the same colour as our background here. Not this product. The colour is a lovely rich brown colour & the smell is really fresh.
This is a great flake if you are conditioning fish up for breeding. This, mosquito larvae & Bloodworm are some of the best foods to get fish into breeding condition.
This is a rich food which should not be fed exclusively. For general tropicals a couple of times a week is ideal.

This is NOT King British, Aquarian or any other brand name flake sold in retailers. We do not 'split' buckets from any mainline manufacturers.

We firmly believe you get what you pay for but this flake is high quality which we buy in bulk (hundreds of kilo's at each order) from the manufacturer & can offer a great price to our customers.

We have literally sold hundreds of kilo's of this since we started to make it available.

Standard Tropical Flake
This batch is the best we've seen to date. We offer it to our customers at a crazy low price. This is the top grade flake by this manufacturer.
We were amazed to talk to one of our customers at an auction who said his fish refused to take Tetra flake but cleaned up all of our standard flake.

We have sold many kilo's of this flake. It's back on our list again with an improved formula. We have re-packaging rights on this food. Suitable for daily feedings.
Analysis:
Protein 49%, Fat 7%, Fibre 2%, Ash 7%, Phosphorus 1·4%.

Daphnia - Micro Flakes - 57g

Specially packed for TA straight from the manufacturer

We've not seen Daphnia in flake form before but we have it now. Really nice smell to this flake. If we can smell it so can the fish.
The live Daphnia we feed to our fish is the same colour as this flake.
Naturally enriched with Blue-Green Algae. Contains no artificial binders or ingredients. This is not the usual dried dust normally seen. Daphnia is not easy to freeze dry & here we have a great product put into mini flakes. These flakes are a new way in feeding Daphnia. The rich smell on opening the pot tells me this product is a winner in being taken up by your fish.
It was slow to move at first as aquarists consider dried Daph to look like dust & be useless. Now it's starting to catch on & we are selling good numbers.

Can be crushed & added to your own made up blends. Suitable for fresh & saltwater reef fish.
Protein 50%, Fat 2·4%, Fibre 10%, Ash 19%, Moisture 9%, Phosphorous 1·4%, Xanthophyll 180mg per pound.
