Keith Gibson –
My plecos have been eating these pellets regularly for three weeks. They seem more active and their color has improved noticeably. The pellets sink quickly and don’t float to the surface. Easy to feed and the fish show no signs of digestive issues.
Zoe Cameron –
I switched from flakes to these sinking pellets for my catfish. They stay at the bottom where the fish can reach them. The color of my fish has deepened, especially in the fins. A little more expensive, but worth it for the quality.
Ella Springer –
The pellets are well-formulated and the fish enjoy them. My loaches are more alert and the water remains cleaner as the fish consume the food without leaving waste on the surface.
Gavin May –
The pellets sink well, but some of them break apart before reaching the bottom. I have to feed them in smaller portions. Still, the fish eat them and seem healthy.
