Carl Dowd –
I’ve used this block for my Plecostomus and it’s been a game changer. The fish eat consistently without needing daily feeding. The block lasts about 10 days and doesn’t cloud the water. Easy to place and works well in my 20-gallon tank with good filtration.
Felicity Mackay –
Great for keeping my algae eaters fed during weekends. The high protein pellets are well absorbed and the fish stay active. I placed two blocks in the tank and they lasted over a week each.
Christian Fisher –
My gouramis love the food. It’s a reliable option for vacation feeding. No water clouding, and the fish don’t seem stressed. I’ve used it for three months now and it’s still working well.
