Description
Sera Cichlid Herbivore Granules XL
Sera Cichlid Herbivore Granules XL is a premium staple food developed for larger herbivorous cichlids and other large fish that primarily feed on plants and periphyton. These floating granules provide balanced, plant-focused nutrition while supporting healthy digestion, natural coloration and stable water quality.
As part of the Sera Nature range, this food is produced without dyes or preservatives and uses gently manufactured granules to deliver nutrition that closely reflects the natural feeding habits of herbivorous cichlids.
Staple food for large herbivorous cichlids
Cichlid Herbivore Granules XL is designed as a complete daily staple for larger cichlids that feed mainly on plants and periphyton. The XL granule size and floating properties allow easy access for larger fish feeding near the surface.
This food is also suitable for other large fish species with predominantly herbivorous feeding habits.
High spirulina content for balanced nutrition
The formula contains 10% spirulina along with other herbal ingredients. Spirulina is rich in carotenoids, minerals, trace elements and natural fibres that support digestion, vitality and overall health.
These components help maintain a balanced gut environment and efficient nutrient utilisation.
Supports natural colour development
Natural carotenoids from spirulina and plant ingredients support optimal colour development without the use of artificial dyes. Regular feeding helps maintain vibrant, species-appropriate coloration.
Floating granules that protect water quality
The gently manufactured floating granules retain their shape for a long time and do not cloud the water. This reduces organic waste and helps maintain clear, stable aquarium conditions.
Cleaner water supports healthier fish and reduces maintenance requirements.
Nutrition close to nature
Cichlids display a wide range of feeding behaviours even within the same dietary group. Sera has developed multiple specialised foods to reflect these natural differences.
All Sera Nature aquarium foods are free from dyes and preservatives and focus on functional, natural ingredients.
