My arowana is 18" long,** A: The sticks are about 1/2 inch...may want to try finding bigger food. My 12inch arowana loved them though **Q: How many per serving for an arowana? Also how many times a day? My arowana is 6in. long.** A: Hello,The general rule of thumb in how to feed is 2-3X a day and only as much as your fish will eat in about 3-4 minutes.If you are changing foods your arrowana may balk at first so start slow with just a couple of sticks to make sure he will eat it and keep trying until he takes to it.Then apply the 3-4 minute rule.I can not say this enough times....people have a tendency to overfeed their fish.When you overfeed not only does your fish produce more ammonia which will eventually become nitrate but the food that goes uneaten winds up in your gravel and becomes nitrate too.Not to mention turning your substrate into a cesspool. **Q: Would this be good for a 6/7 inch bala 'shark'?** A: It's been a while since I've had a bala shark. These would probably be fine, though I believe I'd rotate this with other foods to be sure there's nutritional variety. **Q: Is this stick float or sink?** A: Hello Richard,This is a floating stick designed for top feeding carnivores.However as with all floating food eventually it will absorb water and sink. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent. *by D***N on 31 January 2026* Hikari is also my go to,real good food. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great food *by A***R on 24 June 2026* I have tried loads of different fish foods.this by far the best all my fish go crazy for it .Will be sticking to this food . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing *by K***L on 15 December 2020* These are amazing and all my fish love these I buy these all the times I buy at least 5 bags a month ## Frequently Bought Together - Hikari Tropical Food Sticks 250g - Hikari Tropical Massivore Delite Fish Food, 13.4 oz (380g) - Hikari Usa Inc AHK21328 tropical Algae Wafer 8.8-Ounce --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/71299301-hikari-tropical-food-sticks-250g](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/71299301-hikari-tropical-food-sticks-250g) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-08-23*
