Fishes get their colors from pigment cells. Xanthophyll pigments are yellow, Melanin pigments are black and/or brown, Carotenoids are orange and/or red, Phycocyanin is blue. Fishes cannot produce some pigments such as carotenoids and xanthophylls, therefore it must come from their diet.

The common practice of fish food manufacturer is to lace the foods with artificial colorant or dye especially of the red kind. Once consumed by the fish, it will take the place of carotenoid pigments in the cells beneath the scales, thus displaying the red color. This artificial dye will wreck havoc to the endocrine and nervous system, both that influence coloration in fish. Because of this, the production of certain pigments such as melanin goes hay-wire and black and/or brown pigments will show up at the tail or some parts of the fishes’ body, making the fish look “dirty”.

Natural growth enhancer.

GrandSumo is made from the freshest and highest quality, 100% natural white fish meat from the cold water variety such as salmon, cod, herring and tuna. It is rich in the right proteins (fish proteins 48%) and has a balance of all the essential amino acids for easy and natural synthesis. It is designed for maximum protein absorption for faster and proper growth, thicker bodies and bigger-sized fish. (Bigger nuchal hump for flowerhorns too!)

Rich in Omega 3 and 6 HUFA

The high Omega 3 and 6 content acts as an immune booster, making your fish much healthier and livelier. For breeders, it acts as a reproductive enhancer! Your fish will breed a much larger spawn and have higher fertilization rate. The hatch rate is extremely enhanced producing healthy fries. The spawning cycle is also shortened tremendously.

High absorption rate, less feces output

This high protein and good amino acid profile formula makes your fishes absorb all the proper nutrition, vitamins and trace elements and produce very little feces output. Its hi-density floating pellets do not cloud water and makes tank maintenance much easier.
