Our stick feeds are freshly made & not sourced from manufacturers who sell the lower grade used by fishermen.
We have put high magnification shots of all our sticks so you can see they are not made up of cheap bulky ingredients.
No photo on this page has been colour enhanced or changed from the original shot.
Close ups are taken with a Canon 100mm 'L' Macro lens.
Beware of cheap sticks...



Not just for big fish. We feed them to guppies. As the sticks soften in the water they descend on them & pick away until nothing is left. Note the Corydoras aeneus on right getting in on the act.
I recommend feeding rich Earthworm sticks sparingly (one feed per week) to guppies. They are great for females especially.
Use the Spirulina sticks as they contain the roughage guppies really need.

We import these in small amounts to keep stocks fresh & sell kilo's each week in the UK & overseas.
In most cases our orders are made up fresh.
We recommend sticks be fed sparingly.

I think these are one of the best sticks ever to be made. My experiments show all my fish go for them. The A.guajira below definately grew fast on these. I have not yet tried crushing them in a mortar & pesel for young fish but I'm guessing they would be dynamite.

One of our Austrofundulus guajira taking the new Beefheart sticks. They swallow these whole. It's an amazing sight to see them toss them around the tank.
