ULTIMA is a premium color, growth, and maintenance food formulated with easily assimilated proteins and enzymes to maximize color and sheen. ULTIMA features five applications of color enhancing ingredients including Antarctic krill, spirulina and shrimp. In comparison to COLOR SUPREME, this formula contains half the spirulina but twice the krill. ULTIMA is especially suited for omnivorous cichlids of all types. As in all Dainichi foods, ULTIMA contains calcium montmorillonite clay to simulate the natural ingestion of mineral particles and to bind and neutralize metabolic toxins. Raw, fully potent vitamins, digestive enzymes and garlic ensure that the fish are healthy and free of internal parasites. Furthermore, the scouring action of the clay enhances the rejuvenation of the digestive tract which when combined with only two sources of starch (flour as binder and wheat germ as a source of vitamin E and B) ensures the maximum rate of digestion and assimilation of nutrients.
White fish meal, wheat germ, wheat flour, shrimp, soybean meal, krill, spirulina, brewer's yeast, calcium montmorillonite clay, powdered milk, vitamin mix, mineral mix, garlic, protease and natural gum.

Feed your fish only as much as they will eat (immediately) in a few minutes, 2 to 4 times daily. Smaller, more frequent feeding are preferred over a single large one. Do not pre-soak the food prior use! Pre-soaking washes out vitamins, color enhancers, other nutrients, and lowers the performance of the food. All Dainichi foods have a low inclusion of starches to prevent excessive swelling in the digestive tract. Pre-soaking of Dainichi cichlid food is absolutely not required nor beneficial!
ULTIMA's high krill, shrimp, and fish meal content is key in promoting exceptional growth in cichlids like this 15 inch male "Burundi" frontosa. The nuchial hump is especially well developed. Also noteworthy is the blue coloration resulting from a post- extrusion encapsulation with raw un-cooked spirulina.
With one of the two applications of spirulina being in its pure raw, uncompromized form, blue hues of cichlids, like this Otopharynx lithobates from Zimbawe Rock, have no trouble maintaining their brightness and intensely. By not being cooked during pellet formation, spirulina maintains 100% of its color potency.
