TetraColor XL Tropical Granules

TetraColor XL Tropical Granules are a slow-sinking staple for larger, mid-water tropical fish, sold in a 10.58 Oz container (model 16262). They include a natural color enhancer to promote vibrant colors.

Made for bigger tropicals

Standard flakes suit small community fish but are too light for larger species. Gouramis, larger barbs, rainbowfish, silver dollars and similar fish take XL granules more readily, and the slow sink keeps food in the mid-water zone where they feed.

Nutrition

Tetra designs these granules as a nutritionally balanced daily diet for health, color and vitality. The ProCare formula is meant to support the immune system for long life.

Color

The natural color enhancer helps larger tropical fish develop vibrant colors. Like any color food, results build over weeks and depend on good water and lighting.

Clear water

The clear-water formula will not cloud water when used as directed.

Feeding tips

• Feed once or twice a day.
• Give only what is eaten before granules reach the bottom, or within a couple of minutes.
• Siphon any that settle into gravel.
• Pair with sinking food for bottom dwellers.

Who it suits

Keepers of larger tropical community fish who want a color-focused staple that sinks slowly into the mid-water zone. The granule format keeps waste down compared with crushed flakes, since fish take each piece whole.

Close the lid tightly after feeding and store the container away from heat, light and moisture to keep vitamins and color enhancers at full strength. Replace food that has clumped or changed smell.

Larger tropicals tend to be bold feeders and may crowd out tank mates. Drop granules in two spots at once so slower fish still get a share, and watch for any fish that stops coming up to feed.
