Mini Algae Discs - Sinking Diet for Snails, Shrimp & Bottom Feeding Fish (1.5oz (42,5g))

I bought these to feed my nerite snail. He's my first one and I just got him a week or so ago. I heard they eat mostly algae and there's no visible algae in my tank so I wanted to make sure he had food. I dropped one in and I don't know if he doesn't like it or he's just not hungry but he slid by it several times and didn't seem to even notice it. Having said that, my neocardinia shrimp really loved it and I even caught my tetras nibbling at it here and there so it's no loss to me if my snail refuses to eat them. I suspect he's likely been feeding in my tank. I have biofilm growing there, live plants and some catappa and mulberry leaves for my shrimp, but I've started some algae cultures to supplement him with if needed, lol. I love that these wafers are made from natural ingredients that I can read, pronounce and readily identify. I don't know about snail diets but it seems to be a pretty healthy mix for shrimp. They sink well but aren't very long lasting. They begin to disintegrate within 24hrs, at which point they're near impossible to remove by hand so I would suggest using them sparingly. They dont seem to cloud my tank or turn my water green which is a plus. I appreciate the smaller size and they're thin enough that they can be easily broken into even smaller portions if desired. This is a great value for the price. The bag is small but there are quite a bit of wafers, enough to last me several months in my small tank.

Fish love these discs, good quality product, pleased with my purchase, size is just right, good value,

At first I was sure about these. But the baby shrimp love them. The snails have a hard time getting to them but I got a stone and grind the disk a little so the powder gets spread around the tank and at the waterline. Seems to work out.

This has cut back on my snails eating the plants in my aquarium. I have 5 snails so I do wish the pucks were a little bigger.

So pleased with these wafers!! I wasn’t sure what to expect as this is our first snail and first time buying wafers. We received them today and my daughter placed one in her fish tank for her mystery snail. I placed it near the snail and once it found it, it started chopping away. Literally came back a couple hours later and it was still eating it! I’d say he’s a happy camper! I did a lot of research before choosing this brand. Many recommended products were full of awful ingredients or had some type of copper in them, which is deadly to snails. These wafers are like the size of a dime, made with good ingredients and are 100% copper free!!! We gave it half a wafer (this first time) but I think a 1/4 piece a day along with fresh fruits & veggies will do just fine since we have one snail. I would definitely recommend these to a friend!

Shrimp and catfish bottom feeders love these! One of my snails has fed off of it but the majority hasn’t.

My mystery snails and bottom feeders love these wafers

My snails and cats like these. Anytime I open the bag my silly kitties run over and I give them one or two on occasion.
