Making Species Specific Diets for Decades!

Hikari, the "originator" of Species Specific and premium aquatics diets has been copied by many. Still, our loyal customers know they can always depend on our products to offer their aquatic pets the finest scientifically balanced nutrition we can muster. For almost 140 years, we've spent considerable time exploring the natural habitats of fish, breeding fish in our own facilities, producing diets in our own factories, processing every shipment through our own facilities, and researching the impact our diets have over time. These unique insights into the nutritional needs of fish give a competitive advantage no other fish food maker can duplicate and allow us to produce diets that will not only maintain your aquatic pets' health but assist you in keeping your aquarium or pond in top form.
