Tetra ReptoMin Jumbo Floating Food Sticks 10.23 Ounces, For Small Aquatic Turtles And Amphibians

Ok, very seldom do I get to give a full 5 star review on turtle food. But this is one of those times. Now, this food does have an issue that some may strike a star out for, but you gotta be realistic about stuff. Now I bought this food to test out on my young alligator snapping turtle. She loves it. So let’s break down things you should know. First off, this is a very large bottle of turtle food. Don’t let that picture confuse you. It’s big. The sticks of food themselves are large also. They are about 1 inch in length and atleast 1/3 of an inch thick. One thing to note here is that these are labeled as floating, and they do in fact float. Unlike some other foods, these still continue to float even if they are broken into smaller pieces. So if these are too large for your turtle, then you can break them into smaller pieces. Now there is some complaints about these breaking apart while your turtle is eating them and causing those crumbs to drop all over and dusting up your water. That is unfortunately true, but if you are careful about how you feed your turtle, you can try to keep it from being too bad. Like making sure the pieces you feed your turtle, are small enough to fit in your turtles mouth easily. If they have to keep snapping down on larger pieces to get them small enough to swallow, then it will cause a worse mess in your tank. So smaller pieces are your best bet. And trying to feed them one or two pieces at a time and waiting for them to swallow them before dropping more into the tank. Don’t just toss a bunch in a walk away. Take your time and atleast act like you care about your turtle. Listen, I have accumulated 27 different types and brands of turtle food I feed to my snapper. I don’t just give her one food. I like to mix it up. Give her a nice selection. Surprise her with new foods all the time. She has grew from a one inch shell, to having over a six inch shell in just over 9 months. So finding a deal on this food is great. Look at the price. For 10 dollars you are getting a massive bottle of turtle food that could last you for a while. Not to mention, some of the other bottles I have bought from other brands, have costed almost this much for a tiny little fish food size bottle. So yes, I highly recommend you trying out this food if you have a growing turtle that’s a bit costly trying to buy food for. It’s a great deal. And it’s made by the Tetra brand. They have been a trusted name in pet foods for many years. I know this has been a long winded review, I just want people to know what they are getting and what to expect. I do hope this info helps some of you out trying to figure out if this is what you should get.

Got our painted turtle as a baby (silver dollar size) half dead from the neighbor who bought it somewhere who shouldn't have been selling it that small as people don't know how to care for them. Nursed it back to health & started a steady diet of this food. First the Reptomin mini, then the regular & now the jumbo for the rest of her life. It's really hard to find LARGE size aquatic turtle food from anyone but you won't need to find another as this one works incredibly well. Our turtle is now 14 years old and although I supplement with freeze dried krill which is also hard to find in a large size now (see Tetra Jumbo Krill) & a few other things this is and has been the primary daily diet for her entire life.

Me encantó. Tengo dos tortugas y la comida me salió a un excelente precio. Estoy muy segura de que lo volvería a comprar

Bueno

I always order these for our turtle.

My turtle loves the jumbo size which are not easy to find in stores. Pricing online is better too.

The jumbo floating pellets make it easier for him to eat as he is on the bigger side and the smaller pellets didn’t seem to satisfy him. Will be buying more of this kind!

Fed almost exclusively these sticks, but make sure you realize these are jumbo sized. Works well since they are too big for her goldfish friends, so there’s less competition for food.
