Shrimp Pellets Sinking Food for Tropical Fish, Goldfish, Loaches, Catfish and Other Bottom Feeding Fish, 6.5 Ounces

Good, medium-sized pellets. The goldfish I have love it. Mostly, it sinks, but sometimes a few pieces float for a little while (maybe a minute, if fish don't gobble them immediately!). My fish swallow the whole pellet; pellets don't crumble, they don't cloud the water, made in USA of natural ingredients (shrimp, wheat, fish, vitamins & minerals added). The pellets come in a plastic container with screw-on lid. (Plastic seal on top before opened.) No problems with "freshness" - they are solid pellets, don't get moldy or mushy. My 5 (five) goldfish have more than doubled (more than 5 or 10 times?) in size & weight; I feed them a variety of foods, including this, which is higher in protein than most. (Apparently, goldfish need higher protein like this in cold weather.) We got dimestore goldfish to put in an outdoor rain barrel (to eat mosquito larvae), but bring them in during winter. They have gotten so big, we only put 2 (two) in the barrel, keeping 3 (three) as pets inside! (Not sure if they will all "fit" in the 55 gallon tank we have inside, now!) It will be interesting to see how they get along in there! To sum up, it's good food, but pricey, now. Enjoy your pets! :-)

very good my catfish loves them and my tetras go for them too recommend by my brother who is a professional aquarist

Corydoras and all bottom feeders will enjoy Aqueon Shrimp Pellets at a great price

I have three cory catfish that are constantly working the bottom of my tank and I am sometimes concerned that there may not be food getting to them. I bought these to drop in a few times a week just to make sure they have enough. The fish definitely like them and will eat them pretty fast. They sink immediately 80% of the time. I have a strong current so they never end up where I want them but the fish find them eventually. The floaters eventually sink and get eaten. What I do not like is these are too big to be eaten immediately. They take at least 15 minutes to absorb water and soften. They eventually get eaten but the catfish tend to push them into the gravel when they first fall and can't be eaten right away. Other than some float and they are too big to eat by small cory cats immediately, they do the job of making sure the cats have food to eat. The jar is huge and was priced fairly. That is a bonus. If it expires ill take it to the lake when I fish and use it as chum. Bass, bluegill and chanel catfish will like it too.

Dropped one in. My pleco emerged like a submarine on a snack mission. He bulldozed a snail, ignored gravity, and suctioned that pellet like it owed him rent. The tank’s now a crime scene—algae untouched, shrimp traumatized, pleco victorious. These pellets don’t just sink… they summon. 10/10 would fuel the chaos again.

My loaches love these pellets.

Great fish food

My fish love them. Bought them for my bottom feeders and even my top water fish swim to the bottom to get them

Fish seem to enjoy it. Good sized bottle

My fish love them

When I drop these in the the water they seem to get a little air bubble attached to them for a second or two causing them to float just below or on the surface for a moment before they drop slowly to the bottom. It gives the fish a chance to zero in on them before they go. The fish love them.

My body feeder chocolate chip love it

Fish loves it
