Tetra 77181 TetraFin Goldfish Crisps, 7.76-Ounce , 1-Liter

Tetra 77181 TetraFin Goldfish Crisps, 7.76-Ounce , 1-LiterGoldfish Crisps are a lot like the flake food most people are familiar with, but compressed into a harder thicker flake. This type of flake is hard for a smaller fish to eat, so if you have small goldfish in the 1" 2" range, you probably don't want to buy this product. I'm sure that it will soak, expand, soften and become edible to a smaller fish, but I don't recommend it.

However, if you've had goldfish for a while and they're closer to the 6" range, flake food becomes increasingly wasteful. These compressed flakes are cheaper, less messy, and easier to "measure" proper nutrition -one crisp being adequate food for 1" of fish. While I don't count out flakes for 10 6" 8" fish, I developed a good feel for the correct amount of food... which I never really did with normal flake food.

I have a small 3" goldfish and also a large 8" goldfish in one large tank. I am always struggling to find a food they both can enjoy eating. These crisps seemed perfect so I tried them out only to have to clean my freshly cleaned tank in approximately two days of using them because of the STRONG RED Dye they use to make these flakes a desirable looking color. If tetra would leave the dye out of these crisps they would be fantastic! Until then it back to a small mix of flake food and Koi pellets.

I purchased this because the price was good. I also heard that the "crisps" leave less fish poop. However, I notice that it makes the tank water reddish. I much prefer the water to be clear.

I normally feed my three goldfish pellets or flakes, the most commonly available food in my town without a pet food store. I purchased the Tetra crisps on a whim, but I've found that this product works great and my fish love it, too. Not that they're picky or anything. The product prides itself on leading to a cleaner tank and less mess. It's right on one point there really is less mess in pouring these in and feeding them, and unlike the flakes, I don't find them in my filter later or coating the sides of the tank. The tank, though, is still as dirty as ever, but I can't really complain about this product. The fish love it, the bottle makes feeding easy, and I don't have to pick out leftovers. I'd definitely recommend this product to goldfish owners, but don't expect it to really do much in the cleaner water department.

My tank was always a bit dingy when I used flake food. I accidentally bought these "crisps" and my fish loves them, and my tank is sparkling clean!!! I don't obey the "one flake per inch" rule. My fish is 3 inches and he/she eats about 8-10 flakes twice a day. Also, I have a 3 year old who can pinch the perfect amount of these crisps. With flakes, he always pinched too many.
