Tetra Pond Flakes Small Fish Food

This food seems alright compared to comparable pet fish foods, and better than a lot of them. More natural foods and fewer alcohol sugars, colors, and chemicals would be preferred. Also, it had a good price when first ordered, but when I came back to order more about a week later, it was nearly 3 times the price so I did not re-order it. This is actually being used in a small, shallow, overcrowded temporary "pond" to try helping tadpoles mature before winter. Normally, they mature in about a month from the time eggs were laid. This year, it's been 3 months and most don't even have hind legs. If they don't mature and leave before it snows, they won't survive.

The hope is that since there is no algae for them to eat, this will help them mature and go on their normal way. They eat most of it quickly, but don't seem to like the white flakes (fortunately, there are only a few of the white ones). Some of the flakes will sink if not eaten in several minutes, which is okay since tadpoles will eat it from the bottom as well as floating food. … more

why did the price of this product go from $3,29 in April 21 to $8.99 now? seems a bit extreme of an increase!

My pond goldfish prefer the flakes to anything else. It's a good food for the baby fish because the adults get the stick food so fast!

The fishies really like this food - highly recommended!

This floating food is perfect for our baby koi. The big ones crowd them out.

My koi love this food. I like to feed them off my finger by wetting it and pressing it into the food flakes. They suck on my finger like it's a baby bottle. I then sprinkle some in the pond and they don't stop untill it's all gone. I nick named them koi pigs!!!

I have some river creatures in an aquarium I just got for the river creatures that I catch at the river down the street. They love it and it seems to keep them healthy. The only thing is that it does stink a little.

We have a small pond and I sometimes have to go to several stores to get the tetraq flakes but Chewy always comes through with the necessary product and fast delivery plus you cannot beat their price.

First off - I am not feeding these to my fish directly, instead I use flakes as food for my worms that I feed my fish. Chewy lists the below ingredients, but when I look at the container, it lists different ingredients and LOTS of fake colors. As I write this, Chewy has no pics of the ingredients on the bottle either. I refuse to feed my animals any fake colors. Luckily this was cheap, so no money wasted and it isn't worth returning. I'm going to try to donate it to a local fish rescue. If it had the ingredients listed minus the fake color, I would consider it a decent food. Not the best, but edible. See my pic attached of the actual ingredients.

I don't like how fast it sinks. It's not appealing to me and the fish don't care for it much
