Intan Flower Horn Pellets are a premium-quality, scientifically formulated floating feed specifically designed for ornamental fish species like Flowerhorn and Kamfa. These high-performance pellets are enriched with a robust 45% crude protein content and fortified with vital ingredients like fresh Artemia, natural Astaxanthin, and Antarctic krill, all of which contribute significantly to the vibrant coloration, muscular growth, and signature nuchal hump (head) development these species are prized for.
Designed as big floating pellets, this formula supports top-feeding behavior in Flowerhorn-type cichlids while ensuring easy visibility during feeding. The floating nature of the pellet also prevents feed from sinking prematurely, reducing waste and helping maintain better water quality.
What truly sets Intan apart is its commitment to using premium marine-based protein sources, which are not only easily digestible but also rich in omega fatty acids, critical amino acids, and pigment-enhancing compounds. This formulation replicates the nutritional diversity found in natural diets, meeting the demanding biological needs of these genetically advanced ornamental fish.
Why Choose Intan Flower Horn Pellets?
🟠 Specialized Head Growth SupportEngineered with protein-dense marine ingredients like Artemia and krill, this diet supports the prominent head hump development (nuchal hump), a distinctive and desirable trait in Flowerhorn and Kamfa breeds.
🔴 Exceptional Colour Enhancing FormulaInfused with natural Astaxanthin, marigold extract, and krill meal, the formulation promotes deep red, orange, and gold hues while enhancing the overall sheen and brightness of the fish’s scales.
🟢 Strong Immune & Digestive HealthThe inclusion of garlic, yeast extract, and selected algae helps boost immune function, improve feed conversion, and reduce susceptibility to disease. Balanced fat and vitamin levels also support internal organ health and vitality.
🔵 Clean Water & Digestive SafetyThese pellets are designed to maintain their shape longer in water, minimizing leaching and reducing tank cloudiness. High digestibility and controlled fiber content ensure healthy gut function and lower ammonia production.
