i was at my lfs today and saw this product that supposedly is "an excellent live food alternative" for larger carnivorous fish. i was just wondering if anyone here has tried them and what they thought of the product.

i figured since it was made by hikari it couldnt be that bad so on impulse i bought a bag($47.99 cdn) and im really hoping this is as good as the price indicates.

any imput would be appreciated

sorry necro... i haven't tried anything except for
ciclid frozen dried shrimp. remember, my os are in
high protein diet (Frozen beefheart & pork spleen).

necro did you try this new food ??????????????

ive been using it for about a month now and all my cichlids love it. nutritionaly it is high in proteins and is supplemented with at least 6 vitamins and a whole list of other things.
its still to soon to notice if there any increased growth in my larger fish but will keep an eye on it and let you know.

i am very interested as my O,s are on the biggest hikari golds and they need bigger!!!!!!!!! but in the uk the massivores are £25.00 for 375g !!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just want to know if its worth the extra coin OVER hikari gold
