My yellow spotted rabbit snail loves these wafers! She just stops scavenging to nibble on the wafer. She doesn’t continue scavenging until her wafer is finished. 😂There is copper in these wafers, so I would recommend to feed once a week for snails.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Got sent a review request even though my order was canceled and refunded, which made me lose my coupon code as the coupon was only available for a limited time.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I love the price point and quality of this product. I have a clown pleco. as part of the clean-up crew and I can view him/her feeding on these pellets after turning all the lights off. My platy and zebra danio also enjoy this as well.

Yes, I recommend this product.

The price was great. But with my fish dieing on me about four days later it was a waste of money.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Corydoras and nerites love them!

Even my guppies eat them from the bottom! I guess they don't know they're top feeders. The Cories and snails stay on them until they are gone.

Yes, I recommend this product.

i always used omega one veggie waffers and they never clouded my fish tank. does this brand of waffer cloud anyones fish tank. i have tried other waffers and they cause a lot of water clouding

  1. They won't if you don't over feed.



I have 2 nerite snails in a 10-gallon tank and 1 nerite in a 2.6 gallon. I bought these and I was wondering if the snails would eat these, so if they do would they like them and how much should I feed them?

  1. Mini Algae Wafers would be a better option using about 1/2 pellet per day. You could also use the regular Algae Wafers but would want to use only about 1/3 of the pellet per day between all your snails. Other fish are likely to also eat them. Just be aware that the snails are cleaning algae in your tank and if you give the something that is easier to eat they will not do as good a job on the glass and surfaces and this could make more work for you during your maintenance.



Are these good for assassin snails?

  1. Definately a good option!



I have a young albino Cory.  How many do I feed and how many times a day?

  1. Small fish only have to be feed once a day!  I have long finned fancy 4 inch goldfish and I only feed them Monday, Wednesday and Friday unless it’s a special occasion!



Would this be appropriate for snails and ghost shrimp?

  1. I have Amano Shrimp, not Ghost Shrimp, but I can tell you I just watched one of my Amano's pick up a wafer and swim off with it. He's now perched on a plant leaf and has been holding it and eating it for the last 15 minutes, so I think he likes it!



would it be bad if my betta accidentally ate these? i have 4 corys with him and i don’t know if it’s bad for my betta or not 

  1. No it will not harm them. It shouldn't be their regular diet.



Is this alright for bristlenose plecos?

  1. These are sinking pellets and very nutritional. If your fish is a bottom feeder they would be great.



How often should I feed?

  1. Hi I just got the same brand as you and it seems if i feed them 3 a day it does well. But I have a cory, a snail and some other suckers so it depends on what fish and how many fish you have.



Are these good for upside down catfish?

  1. Yes they will eat them
