I used to feed these to my catfish and loaches all the time when I was growing up but none of the pet stores around me carry them anymore. I thought they were discontinued. Happy to have found them again. Despite being a "big" brand, I've always found Tetra products to be good.

Tanto a mis coridoras, botas, plecos y ancistros este alimento les chifla, es genial enterrarlo en la graba del acuario y ver como enloquecen escarbando para comerlo. No ensucia el agua del acuario.

The benefits of these tablets is that they are designed to sink slowly, allowing for easy feeding and reducing the risk of overfeeding, which can lead to water quality problems. This feature is particularly useful for my bottom-dwelling Cory cats that feed on the substrate.The tablets are also easy to use, as they can be fed directly or crushed into smaller pieces for smaller fish or fry. Additionally, the packaging is designed to keep the tablets fresh and easy to dispense, with a convenient resealable cap that keeps the food fresh between feedings.Overall, Tetra TetraMin Tropical Tablets are an excellent choice for anyone looking for a high-quality and balanced fish food for their tropical fish. They are made from premium ingredients, easy to use, and provide all the necessary nutrients to maintain healthy and thriving fish. Highly recommended!One downfall is that they don't make the 10.93 ounce size anymore which is why I gave 4 stars.

TetraMin Tropical Tablets were recommended to me by a well-known aquarist from Britain, where the product is known as TabiMin.This is a really excellent tablet food and is an improvement on- or at least different enough- from other popular tablet foods (Hikari Sinking & Algae wafers; Wardley's shrimp pellet; etc) to warrant a spot in any aquarium aficionado's collection of prepared foods.What makes Tetra's tablet unique from the aforementioned products is that, firstly, it has a very different ingredient list, with the primary ingredient being skim milk. Secondly, it has a higher protein content than most other tablets (43% min). And thirdly it doesn't hold together as tightly as all the other bottom feeder foods I have tried. So yes, it is messier than Hikari foods, but the advantage is that it allows sub-dominant fish to access the broken off bits of food without overfeeding.The Tetra Tablet also isn't just a bottom feeder food; if you crush it with your fingers (it crushes easily) it's a great fry food as well.Having milk as the primary ingredient will help to diversify the protein sources within your fishes' regular feeding. Some may balk at giving fish cow's milk, but my most reliable reference book notes the author's preference for milk-based foods over fish meal based foods. It also contains a lot of spirulina!The primary ingredients are: Dried skim milk, fish meal, dried yeast, ground brown rice, potato protein, spirulina, and shrimp meal.Nutritional analysis: Protein 43%; Fat 5%; Fiber 1.5%; Moisture 8%; Phosphorous 0.9%; Vitamin C 363 mg/kg.The fish seem to love it.

I bought this food after looking up what our new red-tailed shark liked to eat, and this was one of the foods recommended since they normally hang out at the bottom of the tank. I've seen him completely ignore it and just go for the tropical flakes that fall down. However, my pleco seems to love it so though I didn't buy it for him, at least I didn't waste my money! The first few days we put it in the tank the water seemed a little cloudy, so since the shark didn't care and the pleco has been happily eating whatever for over a year, we started putting one tablet in the tank about 2-3 times a week as a special treat. I haven't tried softening it in water before giving it to them, but maybe that will change the shark's mind! The price on Amazon is very reasonable compared to my local chain pet stores. I'm unsure if I'd buy this again since only the pleco is eating it, and he'll eat anything, but 5 stars because he seems to enjoy it.
