Description
Tetra Pleco Spirulina Wafers are a premium sinking food for all tropical freshwater algae grazers. The shape of these wafers is ideal for pleco mouths to suck onto. They are a good size for all plecos but can be easily broken into pieces if you need to feed smaller amounts. For example, when using in shrimp only tanks.
Not just for Plecos!
Many fish will appreciate wafers in their diet. Omnivorous or herbivorous, this food makes part of a fishes balanced diet. We have seen guppies, platies and many other community tropical fish enjoy this food. Freshwater shrimp like to graze on these wafers too.

Break these wafers into smaller bits and place in the middle of a JBL LimCollect snail trap. This is a chemical-free and harmless solution to effectively catch pest snails in a freshwater aquariums.
