This is the same catfish food I buy at the pet store only way cheaper price.
I have two catfish in a tank. I have bought this same catfish food at PetSmart. This is a much bigger container. I bought two. It will most likely last over a year. This is a really good price. I will always buy from here. It was cheaper than buying at the pet store. Thank you so much.

Container doesn't ship well
The fish food is good - the fish eat it, leaving almost none. Doesn't cloud the water, and the bottom feeders are healthy. HOWEVER, the thin, flexible plastic container has no inner seal. So when Amazon tosses it into a box with other heavier items, and no padding of any kind, the lid pops off and the pellets are just loose in the box. Or scattered all over the kitchen floor, depending on how you opened the box. API: add an inner seal like Tetra uses, so this won't happen even if the lid comes off in shipping. Amazon: I know you're trying to reduce waste in shipping, but some items really need padding!

My fish like it
I've used these for years for my bristlenoses, cories, and cherry shrimp. They seem to like these sinking pellets well enough. Even the regular fish in the tank go after them. The 7.9 ounce container is a good size, so it lasts awhile. I'll buy again.

Fish love them
My Cory catfish love these. My betta fish even tries to steal them.

They do sink in my tank! They can hover for a bit, but I have found they do sink after a short period of time. I am okay with this as I am feeding a community tank, not just bottom feeders. I received a sealed full bottle of product as described.

I've already bought my second one, will be staying with this product for awhile. My platies loved it aswell to the point they've become bottom feeders ignoring the tropical flakes i give them
Q**I
I had previously bought wafers for my botton feeders (3 loaches and 1 catfish). They seemed to like them but I noticed they took long to soften. The pellets though, once wet, sink to the bottom and my fish said "Yes thank you" and scoffed them all off. They even said "Can we have some more please? I did notice though that not all of them sink but my ingenious loaches have since discovered this and make their way to the corner of the tank, where the pellets seem to locate themselves. Overall, a good product and I will certainly be purchasing them again.
