I have been an aquarist for over 40 years and about 20 years ago, I had the idea of making good products even better. We developed and implemented ideas for soft granules and food pastes. At the time, everything was developed for discus, but it quickly became clear to many that it is also a great food for all other aquarium inhabitants. We are very proud of our products, whether it’s food or water conditioners.
Discusfood Herbal Flatgranulate 30g
is an innovative flake food that has been specially developed for the needs of sensitive ornamental fish such as discus, neon tetras and angelfish. It is based on microgranulate that is processed into flake-like shapes using a special extrusion process, making it particularly easy to digest and slow to sink.
The food was tested over 18 months in a professional discus facility under real conditions – with excellent results, especially in stressful situations such as after import, during quarantine or while recovering from medication.
Thanks to high-quality ingredients such as insect protein, marine ingredients, a medicinal herb mix, probiotics and prebiotics, this food actively supports the intestinal flora, strengthens the immune system and can help to eliminate pathogenic germs and parasites in the intestine.
Ideal for all aquarium owners who value healthy, active and colourful fish.

Discusfood Beef Heart Soft Granules – The game changer in cattle heart feeding
A heartfelt thank you to all discus enthusiasts!
Thanks to your support, our Discusfood Beef Heart Soft Granules have become the most successful product of 2024/2025 – over 6,000 units sold worldwide in just two months speak for themselves.
But what makes this food so special?
Beef Heart Soft Granules revolutionize classic beef heart feeding. Instead of conventional beef heart with fat, blood, and gelatin, we use pure, defatted beef heart protein, which is snow-white and fine like powdered sugar. It is free of hard-to-digest components and completely broken down collagen chains.
The result:
✔️ Better digestibility – no sticking to the intestinal walls
✔️ Stable growth and vitality – thanks to high-quality protein sources
✔️ Optimal water quality – minimal stress on the aquarium
✔️ Soft Formula Technology – does not swell in the stomach
Many breeders worldwide confirm: better development, higher resistance, and uniform growth of the animals.
By the way: The red discus on the packaging does not represent a color preference – it symbolizes what good food can do for every discus.
Our Best Heart Granules & Flakes was developed with the same idea in mind – for everyone who wants innovative, clean nutrition for their discus.

Artemia/ Brine Shrimps Microgranulate 50%
Artemia/ Brine Shrimps Microgranulate 50% 45g
The softing prevents the granules from swelling in the aquarium water or in the digestive tract of the fish and at the same time increases the acceptance of the food. With a grain size of approx. 0.1 mm, this complete food is excellently suited for the efficient rearing of fish larvae and juveniles and can help even the smallest representatives such as larvae of Bettas or Corydoras to become „big and strong“. Since the fine granules are distributed almost evenly throughout the tank, the supply of the greatest possible number of young is guaranteed.
