Life AAYU Cichlid Large – 200g

Life AAYU Cichlid Large – High-Protein Daily Diet for Large Freshwater Cichlids

Life AAYU Cichlid Large is developed for aquarists who keep powerful, large-bodied cichlid species. These fish require a protein-rich, nutritionally dense diet to maintain their size, activity and overall health. This formula contains premium fish proteins, spirulina, carotenoids, natural algae, vitamins and minerals, ensuring a balanced intake that boosts colour intensity, energy levels and immunity.

The pellets float on the surface and soften slowly, giving large cichlids ample time to consume them comfortably. This texture reduces the risk of bloating, overeating and indigestion, which are common problems in large fish fed inappropriate pellet sizes. The low-waste formulation is particularly helpful in large aquariums where maintaining water quality can be challenging due to heavy bioloads.

Suitable for predators and large omnivores, Life AAYU Cichlid Large works exceptionally well in tanks containing Oscars, Flowerhorn (general diet), Pacu (as supplement), Green Terrors, Jack Dempseys, Jaguar Cichlids, Texas Cichlids and other robust species. With consistent feeding, expect improved colour, stronger body structure and increased vitality.
