Description:
Xtreme’s NICE® (Naturally Intense Colour Enhancer) crumble is a high-protein, colour-enhancing food designed to support growth, health, and vibrant natural colouration in a wide range of freshwater fish. With a fine 0.5mm–1mm sinking crumble size, this food is ideal for small to medium-sized fish, allowing them to feed comfortably throughout the water column.
Formulated as a nutritionally dense supplementary food, this crumble is packed with quality proteins, essential vitamins, and natural colour enhancers, helping to improve immune function, breeding condition, and overall vitality. Its rich formulation means a little goes a long way, making it both effective and economical for regular feeding.
This food is particularly well suited to species such as tetras, livebearers, rainbowfish, angelfish, discus, and dwarf cichlids, all of which readily accept the fine sinking particles. The slow-sinking nature allows fish at different levels of the aquarium to feed naturally, reducing waste and improving feeding efficiency.
The crumble format also makes it ideal for use with automatic feeders, offering convenience while maintaining consistent feeding routines. Packaged in resealable zipper pouches, the food stays fresh, dry, and easy to access, helping preserve its nutritional quality over time.
In our own fish room, foods from the Xtreme range have proven to be reliable, high-quality staples, with strong feeding responses and consistent results across a wide variety of species.
Suitable for regular feeding as part of a varied and balanced diet.
This formula can work with auto feeders! You can find them in our Auto Feeder Collection.
Diet & Compatibility:
Xtreme NICE® Crumble is a high-protein, colour-enhancing supplementary food designed for small to medium-sized freshwater fish, particularly those that benefit from improved growth, colouration, and overall condition.
This fine 0.5mm–1mm sinking crumble is ideal for species such as tetras, livebearers, rainbowfish, angelfish, discus, and dwarf cichlids, allowing fish at different levels of the aquarium to feed naturally as the food disperses through the water column.
Due to its high protein content and nutrient density, this food is best used as a supplementary feed to help boost growth rates, colour intensity, and breeding condition, especially in actively growing or conditioning fish.
For omnivorous species, we recommend pairing this food with a plant or spirulina-based diet such as Xtreme Spirulina Flakes to ensure balanced nutrition and support long-term fish health.
For best results, this crumble can be rotated alongside other foods in the range such as Xtreme Community Crave Flakes and Xtreme Wrigglers® to provide a more varied and complete feeding routine.
Offering a varied diet helps mimic natural feeding behaviours and supports better digestion, colour, and vitality across a wide range of aquarium species.

Feeding Guide:
Feed only what your fish can consume within 1-4 minutes, removing any uneaten food if necessary to maintain good water quality.
For most aquariums, feeding a small amount twice daily or a larger amount once per day is more than sufficient. Many fish benefit from lighter feeding schedules, as this allows time for proper digestion and helps reduce common issues such as constipation, bloating, and internal blockages.
In our own fish room, we often feed a larger amount every 2–3 days rather than daily. This approach helps keep fish active, improves digestion, and supports long-term health, especially in species prone to digestive issues.
For fast-growing juveniles or fry, smaller portions daily may need to be offered more frequently if required, provided water quality is closely monitored.
As with all foods, adjust feeding frequency and portion size based on your fish species, tank size and filtration.
