Yes, of course it is shrimp friendly! There is no copper in this diet. **Q: Is this food good for guppies and eill it go down to botyom feeders like catfish** A: It’s good for guppies but it’s not great for bottom feeders. There is a food specifically for bottom feeder fish you should look into getting. I got some for my algae eater and he loves it - it’s those little green disc things, they probably have similar ones for catfish. **Q: Will bottom feeders like catfish get the flakes** A: Not if you feed a proper amount, no. You do not want to feed enough flakes that they drift to the bottom of the tank. Flakes should be consumed within 30 seconds or less, and not allowed to drift low in the tank. For bottom fish, feed a sinking tablet or wafer.

Great value. The fish love it. My 2nd time buying. *by on Reviewed in the United States April 11, 2026* This food is very good quality. This container of 4.52 pounds is an extremely large amount of fish food. And it's a great value for the money. I am on my 2nd one now. I give it to all my fish. It is colorful. All the fish like it. It smells like fish food. My guppies, mollies, platy, goldfish, grouramis, cichlids, and even the catfish all eat it. I give them some other food every once in awhile too, but this is mostly what they eat. I have never had a single problem from it. It doesn't cloudy up my water unless I really over do it. I think they like the way that it tastes. My fish prefer this over other brands I have tried before. This is enough food to last most fish owners several years. I refill smaller containers with the large container every once in awhile so it will stay fresh. I am careful not to crush it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great price *by on Reviewed in the United States June 10, 2026* This deal was even better than at other pet stores! Exactly the same product I buy for my beta fish and she loves it! Easy to store and easy to measure for feeding. This will definitely last me a fish’s lifetime. Flakes are thin and very flaky, different sizes but thin & small enough for our fish. Amazing quality & quantity for the price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Food for Tropical Fish *by on Reviewed in the United States August 20, 2026* TetraMin Tropical Flakes are easy to feed and a good everyday option for tropical fish. The flakes are a convenient size, and my fish seem to enjoy them. I like that they provide a balanced diet and are easy to portion. Overall, a good staple fish food for keeping tropical fish well fed. ## Frequently Bought Together - TetraMin Nutritionally Balanced Tropical Flake Food for Tropical Fish - Tetra PRO PlecoWafers 5.29 Ounces, Nutritionally Balanced Vegetarian Fish Food for Bottom Feeders, Concentrated Algae Center - Zoo Med Aquatic Frog & Tadpole Food --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/7174403-tetramin-tropical-flakes-fish-food-1-oz](https://www.desertcart.us/products/7174403-tetramin-tropical-flakes-fish-food-1-oz) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-09-04*
