New Life Spectrum Optimum Flakes provide complete daily nutrition for a wide variety of freshwater and saltwater aquarium fish. This floating all-purpose flake food is especially suitable for smaller community fish, surface feeders, and fish accustomed to eating flakes.

The nutrient-rich Spectrum Nutrition Formula combines high-quality marine proteins such as Antarctic krill, squid, and whole fish with algae, seaweed, spirulina, chlorella, garlic, ginger, vitamins, minerals, and natural color-enhancing ingredients.

Most flakes remain near the surface during feeding, making them easy for surface-feeding fish to locate and consume. Optimum Flakes may also help fish transition from traditional flake foods to New Life Spectrum pellet diets.
