Can I use this in a filtered tank with my small goldfish?

Answer by ChewyAug 28, 2025
This product is not intended for aquariums.

how many fish will this feed? I have 7 larger goldfish about 5 inches each. Will this work for 7 days or would I need more?

Answer by ChewyAug 20, 2021
Ideally, for 15-20 medium-sized goldfish, it's recommended to feed 1 block (last 7 days) or 2 blocks (last 14 days). For 2-3 medium-sized Koi, feed 1 block (last 7 days) or 2 blocks (last 14 days).

what kind of fish does this feed?

Answer by ChewyJun 04, 2019
This food is suitable for Koi, Pond Fish and Goldfish.

How long can the gel blocks sit in the water before they spoil?

Answer by ChewyFeb 28, 2019
The feeder block does not disintegrate on its own. If there is food left, you may leave the block in the pond and resume feeding regular pond diets.

Didn’t even last for a day

So it was supposed to last for 7 days for 2-3 medium size koi - we have 4 big boys and 3 medium boys, so I figured it should at least last for 2 days. It only lasted

So it was supposed to last for 7 days for 2-3 medium size koi - we have 4 big boys and 3 medium boys, so I figured it should at least last for 2 days. It only lasted for 2 hrs. Our boys are fat, and we learned they have no self control.

The Tetra Pond food should not be sold.

I did not want to even give a rating for the Tetra vacation pond food but this review required me to give at least 1 star. I have 8 to 10 year old goldfish. they are appx. 10 inches long. I had 35 before vacation I now have maybe 20. This Tetra Pond Vacation food killed at least 10 of my fish and I am not sure how many of my baseball sized snails it killed. These were my pets, family, they depended on me and this Tetra food killed them. It should not be sold. It is toxic. If you care about your fish in your pond DO NOT BUY TETRA POND VACATION FOOD. IT WILL KILL EVERYTHING IN YOUR POND.

The fish were feed while we were away

This was a good idea if you have to be away for more than a couple of days.

We have 5 med to large Koi and a bunch of babies. We were gone for 5 days and when we got back the two cakes we put in were gone so I have to think that the Koi liked them. We were told that you can leave Koi unfed for a week without worrying but we felt a lot better having this option.

Not what I thought

I thought when I was going away my fish were happily eating away on this, no worries! However, when I cleaned the pond this spring after 2 years these food ‘pucks’

I thought when I was going away my fish were happily eating away on this, no worries! However, when I cleaned the pond this spring after 2 years these food ‘pucks’ were just laying at the bottom almost intact, they didn’t even dissolve after 2 years. It was exactly two years worth of vacations. Now I feel so bad for my poor fish! I have 11 very large goldfish that should have eaten the two I would leave for a long weekend. I’m canceling my autoship as I write this. Maybe it’s just my fish, but I need to find another way! Hope this helps someone.
