Xtreme NICE (Naturally Intense Color Enhancer) Sinking Crumble | 0.5–1mm
A vibrant, high-protein color-enhancing food can be one of the quickest ways to elevate both the look and overall vitality of your fish—especially in community tanks where you’re feeding a variety of species with different feeding styles. Xtreme’s NICE (Naturally Intense Color Enhancer) is a premium 0.5–1mm sinking crumble designed for small to medium mouths and made to deliver strong nutrition with natural pigments that help bring out richer reds, oranges, and warm tones over time. It also works well in auto feeders, making it an easy choice for consistent daily feeding routines.
Xtreme NICE Sinking Crumble Overview
In nature, many aquarium fish develop their best color and condition when they consume a steady mix of protein-rich prey and pigment-containing foods. This sinking crumble is designed to mirror that approach in an aquarium-friendly format: it sinks gently and disperses in a way that makes it easy for fish throughout the water column to feed without a chaotic surface frenzy. It’s especially well-suited for:
- Discus, angelfish, and other cichlids that prefer a controlled, midwater feed
- Schooling fish like tetras and rainbowfish that pick at small particles as they drift
- Livebearers (guppies, mollies, swordtails) that do best with frequent, small meals
- Dwarf cichlids and other community fish with smaller mouths that benefit from a crumble-sized bite
Because the pieces are small and sink, more of the food ends up where your fish can actually eat it—helping shy feeders get their share while reducing wasted food at the surface. Used consistently, Xtreme NICE is a simple way to keep fish actively feeding, looking brighter, and staying in better overall condition.
Why Color-Enhancing Foods Matter
Color isn’t just about aesthetics—it can be a useful indicator of overall condition, diet quality, and long-term health. A food like Xtreme NICE supports coloration by providing nutrition that helps fish maintain strong skin and scale health while also supplying natural pigments (including astaxanthin) that many species use to express deeper reds and warmer tones. Over time, a more nutrient-dense diet can also support better energy, stronger immune response, and improved breeding readiness—particularly when paired with stable water quality and a sensible feeding schedule.
Key Features
If you’re looking for one “do-it-all” crumble that supports both everyday nutrition and noticeably better color, Xtreme NICE is built for exactly that. The particle size, sinking behavior, and nutrient density make it especially practical for mixed community tanks and consistent feeding routines.
- A premium 0.5–1mm sinking crumble that’s easy for small to medium mouths to eat
- Designed to naturally enhance color and support overall vitality
- Excellent for community tanks: discus, angels, tetras, livebearers, rainbows, dwarf cichlids

With its small particle size and sinking behavior, NICE is an easy staple or “booster” food that fits into most feeding routines without complicating your setup.
Feeding Instructions
Feed small portions that your fish can consume within a few minutes. Because this is a high-protein, nutrient-dense food, start conservatively and adjust based on how quickly it’s eaten. Avoid overfeeding, and store the pouch sealed in a cool, dry place to maintain freshness.
If you like rotating foods for variety, Xtreme NICE pairs well alongside other Xtreme options such as Crave Krill & Spirulina Flakes and Black Soldier Fly Larvae Flakes, giving your fish a more rounded diet while still supporting strong color and condition.
