Ultra Fresh Tetra Fish Food, Slow Sinking, All Natural Ingredients, Wild Sword Prawns, Spirulina, Natural Color Enhancement, Small Granules for Small Fish, Tropical Micro Pellet 4.6 oz

This fish food is great. It has a shaker on the top which makes it easy to add just the right amount of food to your tank. The food also does float on the top of the water not just sinking slowly to the bottom. I love that giving all of my fish time to eat without it just going straight to the bottom and creating waste. The bottle is big making it worth the money. Also all my fish likes the taste because they ate every bit of the food that was floating on top of the water. I will be buying again.

Great size pellets, fish love them, clear water. Nice bottle

This pellet and the slightly larger sinking pellet are both the same smell and I assume ingredients, this tiny pellet is drier so they do not clump together, and it comes out just like a salt shaker. It is the perfect size for the tetras tiny mouth and floats for a few seconds for the top feeders before flying all over the tank to cause a feeding frenzy. It does float in the current for a while which I appreciate as the frenzy lasts longer than with other pellets. The smell is very attractive to small fish species and even my neon tetras became domesticated after 3 months of use. It’s easy to get a live bearer to eat out of your hand and trust you, but to get a school of tetras to come and eat out of your hand is unheard of. They like this stuff so much that when I use the larger sinking pellet version in my hand they will come peck at me for a meal. When I sprinkle this smaller pellet in the tank like a salt shaker everyone goes crazy and the tank comes to life. It has made my tank more lively and my tetras have more personality- even amongst themselves. It is expensive- and I bought it the first time just to see if they prefer a smaller pellet, but I’m honestly stuck with this product forever. It’s the best fish food I’ve tried in 9 years of owning fish, 5 of those years as a serious aquascaper. I’m glad I found this product.

If/when you compare the actual ingredients of competing brands, you'll only find one, maybe two, others that have such high quality ingredients and the absence of unhealthy fillers. This is a quality ingredient food. UPDATE!!!! I reduced this from a 5-star to a 3-star for one reason only. The reason is, this stuff is SO small it's amost like a powder, not a granule. It's SO tiny that even my small fish are too large for this food. Also, it is labeled as slow sinking, however, well over half of it sinks right away.

The size is perfect for my fish and work with my auto feeder. Also doesn’t dirty up my tank as quickly.
