My aquarium critters love it!
I recently tried Invert Aquatics Micro Mix, and I must say, it has quickly become a staple in my aquarium routine! This sinking blended diet is specially formulated for snails, shrimp, and bottom-feeding fish, and it certainly lives up to its promise of providing a nutritious and balanced meal.Upon introducing the Micro Mix to my tank, I was impressed by how quickly my shrimp and snails gravitated toward the pellets. The variety of sizes and shapes makes it easy for all my aquatic friends to find something suitable to nibble on. Watching my shrimp actively pick at the mix is a delight, and itâs clear they truly enjoy the taste!One of the standout features of this product is its high-quality ingredient profile. The Micro Mix is packed with essential nutrients, including spirulina and various algae, which not only support the health and vitality of my pets but also boost their natural colors. Iâve noticed an increase in activity levels since I began feeding them this diet, and my snails appear to be thriving as well.The sinking nature of this blend ensures that it reaches all the bottom dwellers in my aquarium, which is a significant advantage, especially for species that may miss out on surface feeding. Plus, I appreciate that the pellets donât disintegrate rapidly, allowing my pets to take their time enjoying their meal without creating excess waste in the tank.Additionally, the resealable packaging is a plusâit keeps the product fresh and easy to store. The portion size is just right, making it convenient for regular feeding without worrying about overdoing it.Overall, I highly recommend Invert Aquatics Micro Mix for anyone with snails, shrimp, or bottom-feeding fish. Itâs a fantastic product that delivers on nutrition, enjoyment, and overall health for my aquatic pets. If you’re looking for a reliable and diverse food option for your underwater companions, this sinking blended diet is definitely worth trying!

Snails grow like crazy
This product is fabulous. When I got my snails⦠(one per tank) I asked about feeding them and I quote ânah, you donât gotta feed em. They just eat whatever they can find in the tankâ. WRONG! Iâve had them 2 months and they have tripled in size. Big Bertha is our favorite. Every time my hubby passes the tank he says âhas she grown just since yesterday?â She immediately jumps on these wafers. I have since made the mistake of wondering âWill Bertha and Bubba breed?â. Yes they will. She has laid 6 nests from one breeding (4-5 days apart). Three have hatched out, still waiting on the other three. But these baby âpopcorn kernelsâ love this food also. And they are growing and healthy and beautiful.The wafers and pellets both sink immediately and donât foul or cloud the water. I check the water weekly and have never had to do a water change in any of my tanks. Whatever the snails donât eat, the fish clean up the dissolved remnants. I keep Berth and her popcorn kernels in the nursery tank with 2 gravid (pregnant) guppies and they are healthy and awaiting birth any day now. About 100 baby snails can validate this food as well as about another 100-150 to come. Anyone need a snail? LOL

Great packaging, good quality
This game very well packaged and takes very little to feed. These pebbles are a great source of vitamins for your bottom feeder friends! It is a decent sized bag, the freshness was on point, color and smell seemed on point with no chemicals. Iâll get this in the future, for sure.

Fish food
It is as advertised. Thereâs not too much to say here, itâs just fish food. The fish seem to eat it with no issues. You have to kind of pick out what pieces you want since itâs all just mixed in. It seems to be a good amount for the money though

Repeat buyer, snails love this
I bought three snails at a pet store. I ended up with a hundred snails before I realized how fast they procreate and what to do about it ð¹. Now I am a snail mama. It wasn’t what I set out to do, but they bring me joy. My snails love this, I’m a repeat buyer.

My Mystery Snails Wouldn’t Touch It. Shrimp Ate It.
My mystery snails didn’t even bother looking at it, and it was the only food in the tank so they didn’t have any other choices (they were in a quarantine tank at the time). The food just dissolved into a mess of goop on the sand. I put some in one of my tanks with amano shrimp, and I did see one of the shrimp going for it, so that’s something.For snails, I recommend just making your own snell-o. There are tons of YouTube videos on it, and it’s super easy. I make the kind using agar powder instead of gelatin, and it sets up super great. My snails love it.
YAY is all I have to say!!! –
Our plecostomus is happy.
Our plecosmus loves them. He cleans the tank so good that he needs that extra food. Sometimes the fish will even eat them if they’re small enough

My Snail buddies love them.
These are great! They do as advertised and sink. Once they realize they’re in the tank, my snail buddies rush over to gobble them up. They especially love thr algae wafers. I wish I had thought to take a picture but I had two snails fighting over one wafer, despite another wafer being right next to them. I also use these when I make snell, they are a fantastic addition. 10/10 will continue to purchase.

Dropped a pellet in and my snail immediately swam over to eat it … Pretty impressed with that but the portion won’t last long
