Review: Great for plecos - I have 2 plecos. They seem to really like this food. They are getting very big. The price is good. I will continue to buy.
Review: Very high quality - I give it to my pleco to convince him not to eat my plants but it's loved by all my other fish as well. They just wait until it gets soft and they will shred it and eat it. I think it's a perfect size and texture. I like that it has two different color portions which I assume they consist of different material. It arrived in perfect shape, nothing was broken, all the wafers are similar size and thickness. I would not expect anything else from tetra and it definitely delivers. And on the plus side, it's actually cheaper than no name food from PetSmart. Absolutely recommended!

A: They go underwater I guess they would eventually resolve if the fish did not eat them

**Q: Will goldfish eat these? Would they like them?**
A: I don't think there is anything a goldfish won't eat. Mine love them.

**Q: Does it hurt the other fish?**
A: No, not directly but if you put to many wafers in the tank and they set there for days it will degrade your water quality. Which in turn, will hurt your fish. Put just enough that will be eaten in a few hours.
