Why Do Small Schooling Fish Need Special Food?

Barbs, tetras, and white clouds are some of the most common schooling fish in the hobby, and they all share one thing in common: they eat in groups, fast, and often near the surface or mid-water. That kind of feeding style calls for fish food for small schooling fish that disperses well and gets to every fish in the group, not just the fastest few. Schooling fish also tend to have higher metabolisms from constant movement, so they need food that delivers steady energy along with the color and vitality support that makes a school look its best.
