About Hikari

Hikari, the "originator" of Species Specific and premium aquatics diets, has been a trusted brand for almost 140 years. Our commitment to scientifically balanced nutrition has allowed us to develop species-specific diets that cater to the unique needs of various fish species. By exploring natural habitats, breeding fish, and producing diets in our own factories, we have gained valuable insights into the nutritional requirements of fish. This expertise enables us to create diets that not only maintain the health of aquatic pets but also assist in keeping aquariums and ponds in top condition.

Why Customers Choose Hikari

Our customers choose Hikari because of our dedication to research, species-specific diets, and cutting-edge technology. We believe it’s our duty to constantly investigate the natural ecology of fish to develop the best food for them. Our exploration of various ecosystems, including Lake Malawi and the Indian Ocean, has provided us with a deeper understanding of fish health, coloration, breeding requirements, and water conditions. This knowledge allows us to create diets that are tailored to the specific needs of different fish species.

Research

Our research-focused approach sets us apart from other fish food manufacturers. We have explored various ecosystems, including Irian Jaya, Lake Malawi, and the jungle of Southeast Asia, to gain a better understanding of fish health and nutritional requirements. This knowledge enables us to develop diets that are tailored to the specific needs of different fish species.

Species Specific Diets

Hikari offers a wide variety of diets for different species of fish, each with unique characteristics that enable it to be readily accepted by the specific fish it was developed for. Our species-specific diets allow you to be confident that your choice will be quickly devoured by even the most finicky eaters.

Technology

Our first-hand experience breeding and raising fish, combined with the scientific data we collect during this process, gives us a clear roadmap for future product improvements and enhancements. Hikari uses actual experience and physical practice instead of marketing schemes or unproven theory to develop our premium aquatic diets.
