Review: Excellent value for money! Tropical and cold water fish love it! - Excellent value for money fish food flakes, our fantail goldfish and cold water fish love it. They ate it all and enjoyed the flakes, haven't seen any issues at all. Highly recommend it to anyone with many fish in a bigger tank which require more frequent feeding. Flakes are big and look excellent quality. You can crush them easily into smaller bits for easier feeding. Will buy again from the Supplier at the current price (£.4.95).
Review: The tank seems happy, fish, snails and shrimps are all enjoying it - I was initially dubious to try something new. We have a fast array of fish, ranging from guppies, to gourami and catfish. We have a 750litre tank, so im conscious of food as it is expensive to replace fish. In the past, I have purchased cheaper food and it had stained the tank. On this occasion, this was not the case. Excellent value for money. The flake sizes range too. I have baby fish and large fish, this food selection seems to cater for all of our fish and shrimp and snails. I highly recommend this food mainly because the price is competitive. It comes in a large bag too. Seems a good quality and fabulous price

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Looking for protein content etc no mention of what product consists off**
A: I am not sure but it seems to be as good as the more expensive guppy food I have bought in the aquarium shop which has 46% protein content and my fish love it and are thriving on it.

**Q: Why has my tank changed colour to an orange/**
A: Ours changes to darkgreen/blue but it does clear and there is no harm to the fish

**Q: 200g: Best Before: 04 / 2020 is this a mistake or correct?**
A: Hi Eric,

Thank you for your interest in our feeds.

Best before date of our current batch is 12 / 2022.

In general we do not have any feeds in stock with less than 18 months due by date.
Thanks to our high turnover all our feeds are fresh, straight from production lines.

Kindest regards,
Heron's Pet World
