I finally got my tank to be clear. Will this food cloudy tank?

No, it will not. Food typically does not cloud the water unless it is overfed and left in the tank. Always be sure to only feed enough for the fish to consume all food in under a minute.

Did Tetra stop making this product? The price has recently doubled on the website and it is no longer available on Tetra's home page.

It is still available. Much cheaper to buy it here than anywhere else.

Suitable for vegetarian cichlids?

Not really. This diet is for carnivorous cichlids that eat mostly live food. They can eat it, yes, but you really want more of a vegetarian diet. You could use this as a supplement or treat food.

Can you you use cichlid flakes for large oscars?

Yes, but in my tank with two Oscars and five Silver Dollars cichlid crisps have worked out better than flakes. Less mess and perhaps a little more nourishing.
