Killed my tadpoles
Bought a bag of these from Walmart as a treat for a few hundred tadpoles. Used one wafer in each 12 gallon breeding bin and found over 20 tadpoles dead about twelve hours later in each bin. Didn't connect the wafers with the die off that time. Next time I fed them a wafer same thing. Lost about 100 tadpoles all together. Will never buy again.

They float!
Terrible product. They float on top of the water and get stuck in my water filter. They claim they sink.

Garbage
This batch of pleco food is absolutely garbage I always buy this brand. Ive had my pleco for over five years and I bought a bag the other day and EVERY SINGLE WAFER floated until it dissolved. Very disappointed.
