  • Store at or below room temperature without exposure to the sun. Use within one year.
  • There is a chance there are small beetles in the bags along with the Fish Food, which enter during production stages. Most bags are 100% completely bug-free, however, we cannot guarantee all bags are free from these bugs. The bugs are not harmful to fish and can be fed to the fish with the fish food. If you experience more than a dozen small beetles inside, please contact our customer support for assistance.
