Didn’t sink

I did not like these, made the water cloudy, they didn’t sink down right away, floated more than I liked, very thin pieces. Please bring back the tetra ones I was

Like concept, BUT....

1st: Wafers don't sink---even gentle water movement moves them everywhere. Sorry, I'm going to go back to the Hikari brand elsewhere. 64 years in the hobby, it's

Awful product. They float.

They float around the tank for a few minutes before they sink. I will never buy this garbage again. I suggest you don't either.

Last a long time (I have one fish)

Love how the pellets don’t float, because that causes air bubbles in fish which leads to swim bladder.

Stay firm in water

My percacumus eats these and this brand doesn't dissolve in the water like some others i have tried in the past, so your fish water stays cleaner and clearer longer

My percacumus eats these and this brand doesn't dissolve in the water like some others i have tried in the past, so your fish water stays cleaner and clearer longer. Tip, if your a first time owner of this kind of fish, he has to have these besides cleaning your tank to survive.

Mostly wheat.

The sailfins like it well enough. I wouldn't call it a "complete" diet though. Must be supplemented with additional protein and veggie source, tailored to species

color was nice but it took a few days for Guss to like the new wafers

Gus did not like them at first but did begin eating them after a few days.
