Cobalt Aquatics 30354 First Impressions

"All I can say is."

Then, fill a separate smaller container for daily use. I'm currently feeding Mollies, Platys, Neons, Swordtails and Dwarf gouramis. I've also now have a number of very plump bottom feeders. During almost all of that time I've fed my fish TetraFin goldfish food. Truth is though, my fish prefer this fish food to many others I've tried. They work perfectly in the automatic feeder. For those that own fish you know how expensive it can be.

Cobalt Aquatics 30354 Final Thoughts

"I highly recommend!"

It comes in a large container and I know we will never need fish food again. I have a few dozens of goldfish in a small pond. This works well for me for the last decade and saves me money on bulk purchasing. Then, fill a separate smaller container for daily use. I will purchase again in the far future, since I now have over two pounds. They won't have to work for it like I did. I expressed my frustration at the fish store, and they recommended these granules.

2. Cobalt Aquatics MODEL-23064 1 Piece Ultra Spirulina Flake Fish Food, Large/2 lb

Cobalt Aquatics MODEL-23064 First Impressions

"I buy the large 7."

It feeds my pond and two tanks, happy fish! This food seems to do better for the outside fish. I accidentally purchased this thinking it was flake food. It also seems to create less waste than other brands, which keeps my tank cleaner. I've been buying TetraMin fish food as long as I can remember. That way, you don't expose the flakes to humidity or spills. I'd tried various flaked food, bloodworms, brine, and even live baby earthworms.

Cobalt Aquatics MODEL-23064 Final Thoughts

"Works very good."

The container looks like the one I'd just finished so I bought it. I have a number of freshwater aquariums with a wide variety of fish. My larger fish eat it just as readily as the smaller fish. I looked carefully inside the small shipping box but did not find the missing lid. They won't have to work for it like I did. Nope, it is pretty big, which means my community 55-gallon tank has food for years! Please be good to each other people.

Hartz Goldfish Flakes with Probiotics First Impressions

"This can is HUGE!"

This might be a pro or a con, depending on the type of fish you have. The food is very nutritious and fish food isn't just fish food. Kind of seems like junk food but the fish all love it. It keeps the fish healthy and colorful. I can't use it in tanks where the majority of the fish feed at the surface. I have been using this stuff for a couple of years without a problem. I expressed my frustration at the fish store, and they recommended these granules.

Hartz Goldfish Flakes with Probiotics Final Thoughts

"Great price."

The Goldfish Flake is their favorite snack in the morning and evening. Best of luck to everyone and stay safe and healthy. My neon tetras, mollies, platys, and tiger barbs love this stuff and they devour it. For whatever reason, my fish have never been much attracted to pellet food. My 20+ female and male bettas prefer these crisps to other foods. I work long hours and don't always have time to feed my fish on a regular schedule. I had tried flake food in an automatic feeder which was a total disaster.

Tetra 16210 Final Thoughts

"Fish seem happy."

I mix Tetra crisps with freeze dried Tetra blood worms. Who would've thought 7 ounces of fish food is so much. As an avid aquarium enthusiast I use a lot of fish food. I have a number of freshwater aquariums with a wide variety of fish. I bought a house last year and inherited some fish in a pond. It is well worth the money especially for the size. I regularly purchase this and am very happy with the product.

Ocean Nutrition Final Thoughts

"They eat and they eat."

My 20+ female and male bettas prefer these crisps to other foods. I regularly purchase this and am very happy with the product. The food is very nutritious and fish food isn't just fish food. I have been using TetraMin brand for 20 of those years. The fish are always happy to eat it and they develop beautiful colors. If you have a lot of fish, it works well. And watch them get dismantled, like a four yr old does with toast.

"Packaging."

I picked a similar flake food and brought it home and tossed it in the pond. The flakes are consistently mostly big, so it's not a big bucket of duff at all. I don't even have to worry about my fish when away on vacation. I had tried flake food in an automatic feeder which was a total disaster. Its a myth that petstore gold fish die after the first weekend. Really happy about this purchase, and it's a very well spoken for brand. The fishes are are healthy, happy and colorful.

They won't have to work for it like I did. I looked carefully inside the small shipping box but did not find the missing lid. I bought a house last year and inherited some fish in a pond.

"Hey, variety in the diet."

Our fish tell us every morning in sign language how much they like your flakes. I have tried to transition them to pellets but they love the flakes and ignore them. The flakes absorb the moisture in the air, cake up, and clog the feeder. They anxiously wait with signs waiting for it always. The fish are always happy to eat it and they develop beautiful colors. Other than that it is a great product and I will continue to buy it for my fish. I can't use it in tanks where the majority of the fish feed at the surface.

They didn't seem to like the stick variety so I tossed it and fed them the flakes. We've tried most of the brands too. My Oscar is almost 4 years old and loves it. I tried a different brand for a week, and then bought a new bottle of this food. This container is a great size for the price. This is the super value tub and all my water creatures eat every bit I put in. You can't beat that price anywhere else and trust me I have looked everywhere.
