The Tetra Gel Feeder Blocks work great. I put one in each of my three tanks. I was gone for two days. The feeder blocks were not completely consumed consumed but had been feeding my fish well. I left the blocks in the tanks to feed my fish until they were all gone. They lasted for four days to about a week. The one that lasted four days is overstocked and had more fish and snails in it than the others. The blocks did not cloud the water or cause any apparent adverse chemical changes.
This is a jewel, I now keep spares on hand in case I need to leave town for some reason.
Good nutrition is a must for healthy aquarium inhabitants and a healthy ecosystem. Every year, thousands of fish become diseased or die because of malnutrition. Poor nutrition affects the fish's immune system, making them more susceptible to disease.
With the wide variety of commercial foods
available, it is sometimes difficult to determine
which type of food to feed your fish. When
choosing a food, the first thing you need to know
is what type of diet is natural to your fish.
No single food can provide all of the nutrients your fish need - protein, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals - in the forms each species prefer. Thus, the key to good feeding is variety.
Proper nutrition is essential for healthy aquarium inhabitants. Achieving good nutrition is more than choosing a food and feeding your fish. When selecting food for your fish, consider the dietary needs of all your fish.
