Floats well, and my turtles occasionally take bites of it.

Yes, I recommend this product.

I no longer buy the cuttlebone listed for birds because they're all usually broken or so small and extremely thin. These cuttlebones are FAT and big. My birds love them!

Most of the cuttlebone sold as "Turtle Bone" were small. Total contents were typically less than one ounce. Package lists the product as 1.25 oz. Some boxes contained total product of only 0.5 oz. Zoo Med needs brush up on the legal requirements for weights, standards and truth in packaging descriptions.

No, I do not recommend this product.

I need to raise the ph in fish tank. Will this dissolve in the water and raise ph ?

1 year ago
If nothing eats one of these, and it lays in the tank for a long time, it does not seem to dissolve. If it did, it would not have a much effect on the water because it would be such a slow process.

Would this work for a pet snail to harden their shell?

4 years ago
That is what I use it for. My snails seem to treat these just like cuttlebones. They actually seem to prefer these to cuttlebone, although, they are essentially the same thing.

You just put it in the tank and it floats? Or sinks to bottom?
