Pros & Cons
Pros
The fluval pellet is the largest. I mostly use pellet foods because flakes seem to float everywhere. My usual feeding consists of a combination of sinking carnivore pellets, flake, and frozen foods.
Great quality and not overpriced. Fish love them the bag smells inside so be sure to seal it up tight after use!
Aqueon uses fish meal, shrimp meal, dehulled soybean meal, and squid meal.
Cons
These pellets are advertised as slow sinking. This food is the only one i've ever bought that doesn't float for very long. What a waste of 10 bucks.

The quality seems really good and i love the idea behind it.
My fish breach for this food it’s crazy , south and central american cichlid tanks
Aqueon uses fish meal, shrimp meal, dehulled soybean meal, and squid meal.
Price
All in all, great price, great ingredients.
The exact cost came out to be $3.
It’s cheaper to buy this instead of the bags
Shipping
I get if people weren't happy with shipping or their product arrived damaged.
Packaging/appearance
The little container has bug bites, but they are small.
Competitiveness
Taste-wise, my blood red parrot prefers hikari over fluval and fluval over aqueon.
These pellets are enjoyed by my koi just as much as the pellets for goldfish which cost much more.
In this review, i compare fluval bug bites cichlid pellets against aqueon cichlid pellets and hikari blood red parrot pellets.
Guaranteed analysis indicates the following:- aqueon has the highest min crude protein at 42%; fluval and hikari are tied at 40%.
