"The fish ignored spirulina flakes to eat this. Wish I had aquired 1mm pellets instead."

"These float and are not 'sinking' except after an overnight soak. The fish liked them but spirularina is taken as an exception!"
Bottom Line
Based on reviews I would recommend it for easy-going and persistent fish.
