Züflo - Robert Guggenbühl's top aquarium breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
General information
Robert Guggenbühl (Honorary President of Aquaria St. Gallen, Chairman of the DCG Switzerland) writes in the introduction to his article in the DATZ:
"My cichlids and killifish in around 40 aquariums want to be fed in a species-appropriate way. What's more, the wild-caught fish I bring back from my trips to the tropics are much more demanding than acclimatised animals."
His many years of involvement with the feeding of aquarium fish have led to an increasingly clear understanding of the requirements for very high-quality yet affordable fish food.
We try to do without artificial colourings and added flavourings. High doses of vitamin C and E are used to ensure good shelf life. Different sources are combined to maximise the variety of proteins.
The different protein suppliers promise good growth. The addition of canthaxanthin as a colouring agent not only enables an intensification of the red but also of the yellow, green and blue pigments.
There are now 3 years of experience with the use of this food. The fish enjoy beautiful colours, good growth and excellent health. The valuable ingredients are easily digestible and therefore pollute the water less than cheap food with a high proportion of indigestible components.

Application
Sprinkle onto the water several times a day in small portions, do not feed too much.
Due to the absence of added attractants, fragrances, and flavourings, it is possible that the flakes may be accepted somewhat hesitantly at first, especially if the animals were previously used to food enriched with such substances. In this case, a little patience is required; after 2 - 3 days the reluctance will diminish. You can make the transition easier by initially mixing the flakes with another food which is readily accepted (e.g. frozen red mosquito larvae).

I have found my supplier.
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid | PACKAGING: Tin | AMOUNT: 250 ml
Top quality! Top appearance! My fish are really fond of this food! Since I've been using this food, my fish are less susceptible to disease and look much healthier. They are much livelier. DRAK products are a little more expensive, but in my opinion quality has its price.

Top feed.
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
Top feed, very high in protein and fat. Is therefore mixed with green fodder.
Yes, it took a while to get used to it at the beginning, but it probably just lacks the "flavour enhancers".
I've been feeding it for years now and am more than satisfied.

Super food
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
Super flake food at first the fish were a little slow to eat it,
but then greedily.

very well
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
Was well received right from the start and still well received years later

Here as supplementary food
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
Supplement to the sticks & Bits for all fish that like flake food.
otherwise I'm not a fan of flake food, I feed granules alongside live + frozen food.
but this one is really well accepted and snapped up.
doesn't disintegrate immediately, the flakes drift through the water and the leftovers destroy the shrimps.
I always order small portions but one or two more varieties and store the food in the fridge (doubles the shelf life)

After some initial hesitation ...
Züflo - Breeder flakes with spirulina and squid
Initially hesitant, now the disc tetras eat it greedily like any other food. However, my signal stripe tetras prefer to eat other types of food.
