Setting up a new freshwater aquarium can be a rather large project and you want to make sure you do it right the first time. If you need help with your fish tank please don't be afraid to ask questions. That's what this fish forum is all about!

I think you will find all omnivorous fish need it in their diet, although many fish ignore them. Try some cuccumber in your tanks, see how it goes down with your herbivores/omnivores.

im not sure about the one you posted from ebay...I dont use the granuals but im sure others might....but kens seems to have much more quality ingredients and I sure know my fish have some great health/color since I switched over

heres what ive been using and scroll down the page to the spirulina flakes to see the descriptions http://www.kensfish.com/kensflake1.html
