There were many reports of Plecostomus getting thinner with each passing day. To address this problem, Hikari began researching raw materials and production techniques to develop potential diets. After considerable experimentation, we developed the best ingredient formulation possible. Next we had to develop a pellet the fish would eat, one that wouldn’t dissolve in water and allowed the nutrition to be accessed readily. The revolutionary disk shape was chosen because it complimented the way plecostomus eat. Of course over the years our ®Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers™ have saved many plecos and become a sales leader worldwide. Today, there are many imitations, but the fish that count know nothing is better and it’s their opinion that’s important to Hikari!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"http:\/\/www.hikariusa.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Pleco-P13-v___R____mouth.jpg\" width=\"200\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe original disk shaped Algae Wafers™ were developed by studying the shape of their mouth\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"widget-title\"\u003eThe Original and #1 Selling Plecostomus Diet Worldwide!\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e®Hikari Tropical Algae Wafers™ were specifically developed for the hard to feed plecostomus and other algae eating bottom feeders.
