Megan Taylor –
My guppies and tetras have been eating this food for two weeks now. The fish look brighter than ever, especially their red and yellow fins. The granules sink slowly and don’t float, so my bottom-dwelling fish get to eat too. No waste in the tank, which is a big plus.
Cameron Dowd –
I switched from a regular flake food to this sinking granule and noticed a difference in my platies’ color. The spirulina and astaxanthin really bring out their natural hues. It’s easy to measure and feed, and the fish stay active throughout the day.

Good product for tropical fish. The sinking feature works well and keeps the food from floating. My mollys are more vibrant now. A bit more expensive than flakes, but worth it for the color improvement.
