Review: Great price - Great for gold fish
Review: My goldfish love it! - Been using it for years because the fish love it. So I’ll give taste a 5. The food always seems fresh, never discolored, and the texture is consistent. The sticks are a bit too big for the little fish but they wait for them to get a little soggy and have no problem gobbling them up. The size is actually quite good. I never end up with mushy globs floating around the pond because the fish didn’t find them all. Great product. Definitely recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the percent of protein in this product?**
A: Thank you for asking! This product contains a minimum of 28% protein. For more help contact Tetra at PHGAmazon@spectrumbrands.com. We are happy to help!

**Q: Will the unused pellets last over the winter?**
A: I have kept unused pond sticks over winter sealed in a moisture resistance bag.  The original bag will work if you can seal it.

**Q: Shelf life?**
A: I've used this for one season (spring-summer-fall: I stop feeding them around November in New Jersey) and then put them away for the winter, and used them again during the next season.  The fish don't seem to mind.  Just store them in a place where mice won't get them in the winter.

**Q: I bought this product one year ago for $15.00. Why has the price jumped to $38.00?**
A: I've always paid about this amount for the tub size. You thinking maybe the smaller bag for $15? Product is made in Germany. China with tariffs as another answer stated being the reason is misinformation.
