"I was grateful to have a solution for my fish when we were out of town! These are supposed to last "up to 14 days" but we were gone for almost 13, and there is still some food left in the pyramid after 18 days!!! My fish were perky and happy when I got home. This product exceeded my expectations."
"The order took a very long time to come. When it came ALL the "5" packages were in very bad condition. Packs are dirty & bent don't know what happened to them. Will not give this food to my fish. How do I return them? I like this item but not the way they came. Want to re-order them."
