Pleco Sticks is a special formulation for fish of the Loricaridae family, like the Plecostomus. Pleco Sticks’ main ingredients are, for the most part, of vegetable origin.
In community aquariums where different species with diverse feeding habits coexist, the fish called bottom feeders such as the plecostomus are the least favored during feeding sessions, since by providing flake food to the fish, those with surface water and intermediate water feeding habits leave very little for these groundfish to feed on.
The problem is further accentuated by the differences in the nutritional requirements of the fish, since the diet of the Plecos is basically vegetarian.
Now the problem of feeding these fish (which are often unfairly viewed as waste-eating cleaner fish) is solved with Pleco Sticks.
Pleco Sticks is a compact, fast sinking pelleted feed, formulated with excellent quality vegetable ingredients, which is immediately available to bottom-feeding fish.
