Sky Algae Eater Flakes — 400ml

The same Sky Algae Eater Flakes formula — in a compact 400ml size that's ideal for smaller aquariums, tanks with one or two bottom feeders, or keepers trying dedicated algae eater flake food for the first time. Plant-matter-rich flakes that disperse through the water column and settle across the substrate — reaching bottom feeders through a natural, distributed feeding pattern that mimics how algae and organic matter distribute in the wild. Egyptian-made by Sky, locally available, and sized for the aquarium keeper who wants to feed their bottom dwellers properly without committing to a large-volume container.


Why Sky Algae Eater Flakes 400ml Is The Best Choice

  • Formulated for Algae Eaters & Bottom Feeders — Plant-matter-rich formula built around the natural diet of herbivorous and omnivorous bottom-feeding species.
  • Flake Format — Disperses through the water column and settles gradually across the substrate — creating multiple simultaneous feeding points for bottom feeders.
  • 400ml Practical Size — Ideal for small aquariums, tanks with 1–3 bottom feeders, or first-time buyers of dedicated algae eater flake food.
  • Freshness Advantage — Smaller container used up faster — nutritional integrity maintained throughout use.
  • Plant-Matter-Rich Formula — High vegetable and algae content that matches the natural diet of herbivorous bottom feeders and supports their digestive health.
  • Ensures Bottom Feeders Are Properly Fed — Eliminates reliance on tank algae and food scraps that are rarely sufficient for complete bottom feeder nutrition.
  • Egyptian Brand — Locally produced by Sky — reliable supply and fast availability.
  • Rotate with Algae Eater Sticks — Pair with Sky Algae Eater Sticks for a varied feeding routine with different textures and feeding patterns.

Product Details & Features

Why Bottom Feeders Need Dedicated Food Algae eaters and bottom feeders are the most commonly underfed fish in home aquariums. The assumption that they sustain themselves on tank algae and food scraps is one of the most persistent myths in aquarium keeping — in reality:

  • Tank algae is rarely sufficient in quantity or nutritional variety for dedicated algae eaters.
  • Food scraps from surface feeding are inconsistent and often consumed by other fish before reaching the bottom.
  • Most standard fish foods are designed for surface and mid-water feeders — not for the plant-matter dietary requirements of herbivorous bottom dwellers.

Sky Algae Eater Flakes solve this directly: a dedicated, plant-matter-rich formula that disperses through the water column and settles on the substrate where bottom feeders live and graze.

Flake Format — Natural Dispersed Feeding When dropped into the water, algae eater flakes briefly float before absorbing water and beginning to sink — dispersing across a wider area of the tank than a sinking stick. This dispersed settling pattern creates multiple simultaneous feeding points across the substrate, reducing competition between bottom feeders and mimicking the natural distribution of algae and organic matter in the wild.

Plant-Matter-Rich Formula

  • Dietary fiber — Essential for the digestive health of herbivorous species whose gut flora is adapted to processing plant cellulose.
  • Vegetable nutrients — Vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients from plant sources supporting immune function, color, and metabolic health.
  • Algae content — The natural food source algae eaters are biologically designed to consume.
  • Appropriate protein levels — Sufficient for maintenance without the excess that herbivorous digestive systems cannot efficiently process.

400ml vs. 800ml — Which to Choose

Container Best For
400ml Small tanks (under 80L), 1–3 bottom feeders, new Sky Algae Eater Flakes customers, freshness priority
800ml Medium to large tanks, multiple bottom feeders, established daily feeding routines, better value per ml

Flakes vs. Sticks — The Rotation Advantage

Format Feeding Pattern Best For
Flakes Disperses through water column, settles across substrate Multi-point feeding, larger tanks, natural grazing pattern
Sticks Sinks directly to substrate, stays in one location Targeted feeding, concentrated food source

Rotating between both formats provides dietary variety and ensures bottom feeders in all areas of the tank receive adequate nutrition.

Species That Benefit

  • Plecos — Common, bristlenose, royal, clown pleco
  • Corydoras catfish — All species
  • Otocinclus — Dwarf suckermouth catfish
  • Chinese & Siamese algae eaters
  • Loaches — Hillstream, zebra, clown loach
  • Snails — Nerite, mystery, rabbit snails
  • Shrimp — Amano, cherry, and algae-grazing invertebrates

Feeding Guidelines

Bottom Feeder Population Feeding Amount Frequency
1–2 bottom feeders Small pinch Once daily (evening)
3–4 bottom feeders Moderate pinch Once daily (evening)

Feed in the evening — most bottom feeders are nocturnal and most active after lights-out. Drop flakes across the full width of the tank to distribute feeding points. Remove any uneaten flakes after 12 hours to maintain water quality.

Feeding Tips

  • Feed at lights-out — Drop flakes just before or after turning off aquarium lights — bottom feeders are most active in the dark.
  • Distribute across the tank — Drop flakes in multiple locations rather than one spot for the best dispersed feeding pattern.
  • Don't rely on algae alone — Even in tanks with visible algae growth, dedicated bottom feeder food is essential for complete nutrition.
  • Rotate with Sky Algae Eater Sticks — Alternating between flakes and sticks provides dietary variety and different feeding experiences.
  • Monitor consumption — Uneaten flakes after 12 hours means reduce the amount; active substrate searching after feeding means increase slightly.
  • Store correctly — Keep tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Aim to use the 400ml container within 4–6 weeks of opening for optimal freshness.

The paper towel holder was a good price, and is easy to use. Needed minimal assembly, and fits well on my kitchen counter top near the stove.

Truth speaks loud and clear!
Format: Kindle
I am very glad I read this book! Many Christians are fearful of the idea of a message from someone who no longer lives on the earth. I was encouraged to know the difference between this conversation and necromancy. Mary says that the Holy Spirit is who plans their conversation and Matthew does not call up the spirits of the dead. Everything Mary says in this book is in allignment with the truth if the Gospel. I encourage all to read this book with a careful watch to see that it does not lead anyone away from Truth. I loved her honesty and her wisdom and her relationship with Jesus. This book helps to bring people closer to their Father God and to Jesus. Thank you Matthew for your obedience to God and courage to write this book!

Mary Magdalene
Format: Kindle
Another great book from Matthew Robert Payne translated from an Interview with Mary Magdalene. .Mary gives sound advice on how to devolope our walk with Jesus and how important it is to be serving God and doing what he called us to do with our lives She talks about which books to read in the bible and recommends other authors Mary is very open and honest about her life and how she met Jesus and her reaction to meeting him and falling deeply in love with him She had a lot of men in her life and many advantages in life because of her work as a high class prostitue. But one meeting with Jesus changed all that One look of pure love from Jesus and she was undone She was a very Intelligent woman and a very astute business women The first time she heard Jesus speak was when he quoted Jeremiah 9 23 and how Jesus took the scripture apart and described how been wise mighty and wealthy isn't the answer. I found this a very interesting book and just want to get to know more about this wonderful saint Its one of those hard to put down books and when finished leaves you wanting to know more and more about her Highly Recommend this book to others Christian and non christian can benefit from reading this.

Mary Magdalene Speaks from Heaven: A Divine Revelation
Format: Kindle
Even though I read Book 2 before reading this one, I was equally enthralled by both. It’s difficult to find words to acknowledge the thrill of listening to someone whose life was full of sin and totally turned around when she heard the words of Jesus and saw his love for humanity! This conversation is so real and heart-wrenching at the same time. Step inside the pages of her life and feel the emptiness of having all the wealth that you could desire and yet feel completely empty and worthless inside. That was exactly how she felt (and how many of us feel today if we are willing to admit it). Simultaneously, the reader finds comfort and camaraderie in this new found friend who comes alive and jumps out of the pages of the Bible to greet us! This is a book that you surely will not put down until the end. A special bonus includes her description of all that awaits us in Heaven. Enjoy!
