Full product description
Provide herbivorous and algae-grazing aquarium fish with a nutritious, highly palatable diet using Bioscape Insectivore Spirulina Algae Wafers.
These premium 15mm sinking wafers combine spirulina with black soldier fly larvae and mealworm meal, creating a balanced food for herbivorous and omnivorous bottom-feeding fish. The formula supplies plant-based nutrition alongside insect protein, helping support healthy growth, digestion, immune function and natural colouration.
The dense wafer format sinks to the aquarium floor, allowing plecos, bristlenose catfish, loaches and other bottom-dwelling species to feed naturally. Added multivitamins and astaxanthin provide further nutritional support while helping maintain vibrant natural colour.

Why Choose Insectivore Algae Wafers?
Many herbivorous aquarium fish also consume small insects, larvae and other sources of animal protein in their natural environment.
Bioscape Insectivore Algae Wafers combine spirulina and plant ingredients with insect protein to provide a more varied diet than a basic algae wafer alone. This makes them suitable for many herbivorous and omnivorous fish that naturally graze on algae, biofilm and organic matter.
Benefits of Spirulina
Spirulina is a nutrient-rich microalgae commonly used in aquarium foods for herbivorous and omnivorous fish.
As part of a balanced diet, spirulina may help support:
- Healthy digestion
- Natural colour development
- Normal growth and body condition
- Immune-system health
- Active feeding behaviour
- Healthy fins and scales
Large 15mm Sinking Wafers
The 15mm wafers sink to the aquarium floor, making them easily accessible to bottom-feeding species.
Their larger size allows fish to graze gradually and can reduce competition in community aquariums. Wafers may also be broken into smaller pieces when feeding smaller fish or shrimp.
Feeding Instructions
Feed one or two times daily, offering only as much as the fish can consume within a few hours.
For nocturnal species such as plecos and bristlenose catfish, add the wafers shortly before the aquarium lights switch off.
Remove any uneaten food and reduce the feeding quantity when wafers remain in the aquarium for extended periods. Overfeeding can increase organic waste and negatively affect aquarium water quality.
Suitable For
- Bristlenose catfish
- Plecos
- Otocinclus
- Herbivorous catfish
- Loaches
- Silver dollars
- Mollies
- African cichlids requiring vegetable matter
- Freshwater shrimp

- Omnivorous bottom feeders
- Algae-grazing aquarium fish
Always confirm the nutritional needs of the individual species being fed.
Storage Instructions
Keep the container tightly closed and store it in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight.
