Hi i am currently using the Sera discus dry pellet. Just wonder comparing to a product called New Life Spectrum Discus Formula... which one is better ?

Coz me Sera discus dry pellet is almost finish and i am consider either buying a different brand this time or still using the Sera brand.

Thanks a lot

I have just started using NLS Thera A and Grow which seem to be working well.

I also use Tetra colour bits.

I have found the discus to eat all of these with no problem.

If you can get them onto it, try some breeders blend flake, this stuff is magic for colouring up fish, and doesn't seem to turn the tails of BD's orange like colorbits do.

other bonus is being a flake you can crush it nice an fine to feed to month old fry.

Good to hear.

As far as I'm aware Colourbits uses synthetic Astaxanthin which is a very different product and outcome compared to NatuRose. Sera used to use NatuRose in some of their foods, not sure if they still do. No one has ever been able to find out what NLS use as a colour enhancer, very good reports out there on the food though.
