Is this ok for Denison Barbs?

Answer by Chewy • Aug 26, 2020
This food provides a complete and balanced diet to meet the nutritional requirements of all types of herbivorous tropical fish, including Swordtails, Mollies, Guppies and Cichlids. Denison barbs are omnivorous and will accept many foods. For optimal health, they should be fed a wide variety including meaty foods as well as vegetable matter.

Good for tetras?

Answer by Chewy • Sep 06, 2018
This is primarily for tropical herbivorous fish. Tetras are omnivorous and may require more animal based sources. The API Flakes Tropical Fish Food contains more protein and is designed for tropical fish like tetras.

Chewy is the only place I have been able to get this food. I have a wide variety of aquatic life. Tetra, platy, guppies, bards, mollies, nerite snails, and even some African dwarf frogs. All at different stages of life. I feed a wide variety of foods to meet everyone’s needs. I always keep froze bloodworms, frozen brine shrimp, and API tropical greens on hand. Those are my staple foods. Everyone loves this API tropical greens! It’s a hit! I love how much healthier and happier my fish started to look after I began using this food. API products really are wonderful.

He likes it.

My Scat seems to like this food. He gets excited every time I walk by the tank. It seems like he has more energy since I started him on this too.
