Tetra Crisps

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I love the crisps.. That's my staple for my community tanks.

I grind them with my fingers when I feed, so fish from the size of Neons to Angels get the size bites they prefer.. They also sink to the bottom and the Cory cats cherish them.. Even the BGK loves them.

I like how the crisps are thicker and crunchier than almost all flakes.. it seems like they have alot more substance too them.. I feed the TetraCichlid Crisps to most the community fish too because they are higher in protein and fat..

I also really like the TetraAlgae crisps for Plecos and veggie fish..
 
my african butterfly fish loves them, and the krib will sometimes eat them

the bichir and african knifefish eat them then spit them right back out.

i think they are better than flakes and an ok food for people who don't want to speed 10 bucks on a small ass packet of Hikari Super Pellet 5000.
 
I bought a small jar of crisps, the algae label for my RHs. I use it in the mix, all my fish eat it surprisely even the larger cichlids..It's not my staple I just use it as a variety food......here's a list of ingredients, not the best quality since its supposed to be an algae crisp however the fish consume it readily:

my leopard ctenopoma loves these crisps. He refuses to eat the cichlid pellets now and just sits at the topof the water waiting for me to throw some crisps in for the butterfly fish.

yesterday, he even passed on blood worms for the crisps.. he didn't eat the blood worms until the crisps were gone.

this stuff is fishy crack
 
I feed my tropicals tropical crisp and my africans cichlid crisp. I like it because there is almost no waste, and they are accepted by everybody. I really like the african crips because they are half algae! Switched from hikari algae wafers to wardley after reading that they are all vegetable matter, not fish meal like hikari. I also use cichlid sticks (for my larger friends), freeze dried krill and plankton, and frozen bloodworms and beefheart.
 
my common pleco eats Crisps now like a champ, when the dats and Geo's leave him some.
