Can anyone recommend the size of these for African Butterfly fish?My butterfly fish accepts dried flake and freeze dried foods. Just not too big.

They're not big - average about 1/2 inch, some longer and if that's a little too big, they will break easily into smaller pieces in your fingers.

I don't know. I would say they would have to be the larger goldfish; A 3 inch goldfish may not be able to handle the size of the fish food I give my koi.

I gave the bowl as a gift to my mother. I do not have immediate access to measure correctly. I will say that it is not big enough for a fish to be happy in. We bought it for Christmas along with a male Betta and he was miserable. As soon as we moved the fish to fish bowl, his color returned and he swam around again. I will say that the opening of the mouth is a good size. I just picked up Chinese food and they had a similar item but the mouth had maybe a three in circle for an opening.

I'm no expert, but these stones are smooth and kind of large, about 1/2 inch in diameter, so they should be safe for any species of fish.

I'm pretty sure the clown loaches would eat them. There are very few tropical fish that wouldn't. I believe Chinese algae eaters (name?) are among the only ones that won't.

I just keep them in the bag on a shelf. I have an old Flukers meal worms bottle that I just refill out of the bag and that I leave on my dresser. I can say not to store it on top of the cage as mine got wise to this and ate a hole in the bag and ate meal worms to their hearts content. But yeah, the freeze drying makes them stay very well.

I wouldn't recommend anything bigger than 1/0. I haven't fished trout in a while though. these hooks do run a bit small though.

Yes, I use flake food. The flakes I buy are pretty large so I shake the flake food vigorously in it's bottle before I put it in the feeder. This breaks it down into smaller flakes so it can pass through the opening. I keep the opening very small (3rd click back from the closed position).

The pellets are on the larger size or they would need to be bigger goldfish at least 3". I have mix of Koi and large goldfish and this is what I feed them both.

The mini pellets are very small. They sink quickly and would probably take some work for smaller fish to consume. If they like to eat off the gravel it may work out ok.

They are great quality, but even such this Is a small variety of shrimp, and will be only 1/4 to 1/2 or so, maybe bigger but not much.Get like 30 in a 5 gallon and it would look great.Tbh with these guys order more than you need, they are sensitive. That being said, the seller sent me.mine and ALL were live, its been MONTHS and most are alive.

Hello! In my experience, when i got this shrimps i had a thank with a 5 inchs pleco, 2 loaches botias and other fishes, and they were fine, after 2 months they breed, and i had no problems. The babys growed fine. Later i got a couple of African Frogs... and man.. bad choice. They were like ice cream for them. :( Plecos and Loaches are fine, but don´t think about put frogs or turtles in a tank with srhimps :D

They are the size of a small pebble. So bigger than normal fish rocks/gravel. Sooo much easier to deal with AND clean.

I have not tried but am sure you could. As a child we used to purchase cod fish flakes to make them . With the dried cod pieces I would rehydrate the fish and brake them into little bits to mix with other ingredients. Sorry this is all I can recommend

I ordered mine later in the season, but I would think someplace cool and dry would work. I hope you love them as much as I did...I was persistent enough to get pics, both at time of hatching and a couple months later. Simply amazing!

Hi Donald! Great question and you are not the first to ask. Unfortunately, the conch arrives from our vendor in frozen 5 lb blocks. Feel free to give me a call to discuss options. Thanks and talk soon.....Ron Manz - President - Charleston Seafood - 1-888-609-FISH

I am using pellets and it is working fine. Sorry, have no suggestion for the flakes type food.
