Not yet, just bought it today.

I feed them just then, and my fish love them. Thats all I can say for now.

I will feed most of my fish with this for couple of weeks, and hopefully can see something different.

Thanks

I have been using it for about 6 months now. My discus like it very much.

I also use Omega-one vigie flakes, Tetra color flakes and OSI color flakes. I rotate them with frozen BW so the Discus get a balanced diet.

Well, I think my Discus are having good colors. I also added the blue light bulbs, which really bring out the blue of the Discus.

The way I figure out is, since I have to have different flake foods for viariaty, might as well using some color enhansing ones.

Since I don't have that many fish (11 discus so far), the cost of food is really not a big concern. I rotate these flakes everyday, plus the BW, BS and some other frozen food. Works for me so far.

Some update.

From Sat Sep 23, 2006 , until today Sat Oct 7, 2006, I feed most of my fish this food.

The result that I get from it is great. What I can see clearly is from my Electric yellow. Some of them were pale yellow, but since I feed them this food, the yellow start to go much brighter.

The rest of the fish such as platy, loaches, goldfish and angelfish are enjoying them.

I also got my angels to breed during this period of time. Is it because of the food ? or maybe just coincidence ? I dont know.

Final words: Im happy with this product, and worth a try next time you buy fish food.

Good luck.

I have been using this for about a month and my discus absolutely love this food! So do my tetras, corys and algae eaters...

It has a fresh smell, great colour and keeps its shape once added, so they have a great time flying around trying to munch the bigger flakes first! Very entertaining.

I also feed them Tetra Colourbits as their alternative dry food. Frozen Bloodworm, Frozen Brine Shrimp and Frozen "Discus Dinner" as well, but they are much more fun to watch with the flakes.

I do think their colours have become more vibrant (both my Blue Diamond and Yellow Melon) and they are all certainly more attentitive and generally healthy as well.

I would recommend this food if you haven't tried it yet...
