Fish love them and quite often steal them from each other's mouths. They soften the longer they are in the water so if your fish are very small they are able to take bites out of them after a few minutes. Hope that helps. **Q: How many pallets/tablets to feed per feed? Can these be fed to arowana fish?** A: How many pellets would depend on how many fish you have and how big those fish are. As these tablets sink (the clue is in the name) I doubt they'd be much use as food for an arowana. I've never kept an arowana but as they have upturned mouths I suspect they are surface feeders. **Q: Does anyone feed these to a Bichir?** A: Yes. They can be a little picky on them though. Took a little time for mine to eat them. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly recommend for Axolotls *by N***E on 3 December 2025* Well our axolotl loves them, shes a rescue and since feeding these her frills have began growing back!!
