Thanks for the head's up. I'd be interested in buying if the quality is good. Let's see how my fish love it.

Yes it was! Very informative, though. That is a generous sample. I see it says "return to store for refill". I wonder if you could get a refill of whatever mixture you like. The website is interesting too. It has a variety of custom blends for many different fish (click on fresh or salt, then on fish species). Or you can specify your own blend. Nice!

I sent them a email saying how much I enjoyed their sample, and asked if I can have another sample. I think it is unlimited and maybe they will tell me, if I have to ship back the refill container or they will send a new one.

Also to clarify, the shipment of 2 weeks was wrong I noticed in my email it was 6 days and on the shipment box says First Class. I guess waiting in the mail for something made it seem longer. :/

I've tried their food for a saltwater tank (back when I did saltwater). It didn't go over terribly well with the fish, but I really liked the product itself. I think it may have been the lack of color. I think I'd certainly give them a try for freshwater, and I may see about the free sample.

I ordered the free sample, and just received it. It's not really like flake food. It's hard. Smaller than like an algae wafer, but round hard things. They're too big for my fish to eat whole. So I read the instructions and it said you can "crumble" it for smaller fish. The problem is that when I crumble it, even if I do it lightly, some stay in big pieces but most turns to this powder of fish food that basically just pollutes my tank. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. It doesn't float either. So I'm not sure how you're supposed to feed this to fish that don't eat off the bottom. Even if I leave the pieces whole and drop them in, they sink fast and leave a trail of "powdered" fish food behind them. There's no way to sift that out of the water, so I imagine it's in my filter as we speak causing all kinds of gross things to grow. Wonderful. I know it's supposedly good fish food, but unless I'm doing something wrong... which I very well could be... I don't see how this can be a good product for fish...
