Review: Worth the price! Color and Health - This cost more then my previous food so I was leery. I have no idea on size and bought 2mm. Will need larger for my big boy. "Cheddar" is a 5yr old blood orange cichlid and usually has a white or pale orange look. This food however is worth the price. HIS COLOR!! Fabulous! All fish in this tank and my African cichlid tank seem healthier.
Review: They really are 2 mm updated - My 29-gallon tank has seven 1.5 inch Clown Loaches, two 1" Golden Severum and three Silver Dollars, about 2". I feed them Cichlid Crisps and, for the bottom-feeding Clown Loaches, sinking pellets. The video reviews for this brand have been glowing. I bought my first NorthFin pellets. Hoping for a clearer tank and faster growth with "graduation" to my larger tank. First impressions. The bag is clearly labeed as to size (2mm) and SLOWLY SINKING. They are just a tad under 2 mm in diameter, as the photo shows: 10 pellets in 20 mm. They fall to the substrate in a few seconds, NOT slow, but not a problem. There is no mad rush to eat them. At $1.70 per ounce, the cost is OK Wish it had come in a jar.. Be back in a month with an update. UPDATE: Many months later, it is now the second food (after the Cichlid Crisps, then as a treat some freeze-dried worms) ). I now use it in both tanks, in the 3 mm size. My next order will be the 500 gram bag: twice as much for only 50 percent more. I pour the bag's contents into small jars for easier dispensing. Good food.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Fish Food
*by B***. on April 19, 2024*

I've tried numerous fish foods over the years, but Northfin Fish Food Cichlid Formula Slow Sinking Pellets truly stands out from the crowd. My cichlids have never looked healthier or more vibrant since I made the switch to this exceptional product. Firstly, I appreciate the high-quality ingredients used in this formula. It's evident that Northfin prioritizes the health and well-being of aquatic life, as every pellet is packed with essential nutrients and proteins to support optimal growth and coloration. What sets these pellets apart is their slow-sinking nature. This feature allows all my cichlids, regardless of size or swimming abilities, to enjoy a balanced diet without competition or waste. Plus, it mimics the natural feeding behavior of cichlids, promoting a more natural and enriching feeding experience. Another highlight is the minimal waste produced by these pellets. Unlike some other brands that leave behind residue, Northfin pellets are highly digestible, ensuring maximum nutrient absorption and minimal impact on water quality. This means less time spent on maintenance and more time enjoying my aquarium. Moreover, I'm impressed by the consistency of the pellet size and texture. It makes feeding a breeze and ensures that each fish receives the appropriate portion size without any hassle. Overall, Northfin Fish Food Cichlid Formula Slow Sinking Pellets has exceeded my expectations in every aspect. From its premium ingredients to its thoughtful design, this product has earned its rightful place as a staple in my cichlid tank. I highly recommend it to any aquarist looking to provide their cichlids with top-notch nutrition and care.
