Why Choose Hikari Micro Pellets for Your Tropical Fish?
Hikari Micro Pellets are a scientifically formulated, micro-coated fish food designed to meet the unique dietary needs of small-mouthed tropical fish such as tetras, rasboras, danios, and barbs. Available now at Mindiampets.com.au, these semi-floating pellets offer a cleaner, more nutritious alternative to traditional flakes while boosting colour and immune support in nano and community aquariums.
Made for Small-Mouthed Fish
Unlike oversized pellets or dissolving flakes, Hikari Micro Pellets are perfectly sized and shaped for easy ingestion by small fish species. Their semi-floating nature ensures even mid-water column feeders get access to a balanced diet, replicating natural feeding behaviours and reducing food waste in your tank.

Expert Insight
“Feeding your tropical fish a diet tailored to their mouth size and digestive ability is key to longevity and vibrant colours. Hikari Micro Pellets offer one of the most complete micro diets in the market, especially for Australian hobbyists dealing with small tanks and sensitive community setups.” – Dr Jay Rollings (BSc DVM), Aquatic Nutrition Expert
Why It’s Perfect for Australian Aquariums
In cities like Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, nano and small community tanks are growing in popularity due to space and energy concerns. Hikari Micro Pellets provide a compact, low-waste food solution suited for densely stocked aquariums often seen in urban Australian homes. According to RSPCA Australia and ABS pet data, small tropical fish are among the top three aquatic pets in New South Wales and Victoria, making a daily diet like this essential.
Flake Food Alternative – Why Switch?
Traditional flakes can break apart quickly, cloud the water, and lose nutritional potency. Hikari Micro Pellets stay intact longer, have controlled buoyancy, and deliver more concentrated nutrition per bite—translating into healthier fish and clearer tanks.
Who Is It For?
- Beginner aquarists wanting a cleaner feeding experience
- Advanced hobbyists looking for enhanced colour and growth
- Fishkeepers in high-density urban areas needing low-maintenance diets
