Tetra Vacation Food Slow-Release Feeder Block For Tropical Fish, 1.06 oz

I put one of the tablets in my 45 gallon tank with six small freshwater fish while I went on vacation. Seven days later it was completely gone and all my fish were alive and well. I recommend!

I had a 14 day trip and so I purchased this as it stated it was good for 14 days. I have guppies and an angelfish as shown on the packaging, as well as a couple snails sucker Fish, and shrimp. This is going to be the fourth week and there is still a significant amount of food left. Totally worth the money and exceeded expectations. Good to know that if my trip had run over or if I need to go on a longer trip in the future, I can count on this to feed my fish. noting that there were 8 fish, 2 snails, and 1 shrimp in a 10 gallon tank.

We have 1 female beta, 2 corys, 2 dojos and 5 nerite snails in our 38 gallon tank. I bought this vacation feeder once before when we also had 1 goldfish in our tank. That previous disc was consumed while we traveled, I thought by everyone. Fast forward, goldfish had a fatal encounter inside the tree & I never replaced it because… trash fish. We were going out of town 6/29-7/5 so I ordered this disc again. I also had one of those white shell-shaped vacation feeders I found buried in the fish cabinet, so I put that in the tank, too. Today is July 20th. The disc remains untouched. It’s been almost a month! Ironically, while I was trying to get a video of the disc, one of the corys swam right over it without even stopping. I’ve been checking on this food every day since we returned home in the hopes that the snails would perhaps eat it, but they’re not interested either. Nobody in my tank likes this vacation food, however the white shell vacation food was completely consumed within the week we were gone. I feel bad, now realizing my fish were starving last time we went away. I’ll be picking this disc out of the tank & putting it in the trash because it’s literally nothing more than fodder for algae. P.S. It’s a struggle to pop this disc out of the aluminum dish it’s packaged in.

we were going on a 5 day trip out of town and got these for our goldfish tank - tried it the day before and a couple of the goldfish went to investigate - one of them ate the whole block and later passed away from it while it is a great value for the money - recommend putting it somewhere the fish can't get to it

Kept our fish alive while we were on vacation!

I don't know if the formula changed, but, my fish didn't touch it. My fish only eat this brand of food and they have had weekend feeders before-only ever this brand- so, I don't know.

Exactly as shown, bigger than I expected

I like these fish feeders so much better than the white chalky ones that seem to always leave a white residue in the tank. I break a single 'feed cake' into about 5 or 6 pieces and drop them in different spots so that fish can easily feed on them wherever they are. They ARE slow release, so the food itself is dispersed over a period of many days. I have five guppies, two neon tetras and two algae eaters, so one of these feed cakes lasts about 10 days. An added bonus is that, if you have unwanted snails like I do, you will find them collected on whatever chunks are still left over, and just 'fish' those snails right out of the tank when you get home.

It’s not worth buying those white feeders, we find they have left the water murky and we have had some casualties. We have been using the Tetra feeders for at least 10 years. It’s good how it slowly feeds flakes into the water or the fish nibble the block. If you don’t have a full tank of fish we cut the block in half.

I received it damaged. It was squeezed into a small box in a very bad way and the funny part is I can't request a return or a refund

Buenisimo, mis peces lo aceptan muy bien … no es la primera vez que lo uso y siempre me ha funcionado

Does the job....just make sure the plug doesn't get stuck under any rocks/ornaments in the tank....

does not cloud the water
