Ella Miller –
My axolotl has been eating these pellets consistently since I started using them. The texture is good and they seem to be well accepted. The color of the pellets is natural and the feeding routine is easy to follow. I notice better coloration in my axolotl’s skin recently.
Pippa Blake –
I tried a few different foods before switching to these pellets. My axolotl is now more active and seems to be gaining weight. The sinking property helps keep the food at the bottom where it’s needed. Only issue is that the pellets are small and need to be measured carefully.
