Zoo Med Natural Aquatic Turtle Food Hatchling Formula (15 oz)

I recently started using the Zoo Med Aquatic Turtle Food Growth Formula for my turtles, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results! This food has quickly become a staple in their diet.Pros:High-quality nutrition: The growth formula is packed with essential nutrients that promote healthy growth and development in aquatic turtles. My turtles seem more active and vibrant since I switched to this food.Great taste: My turtles absolutely love this food! They eagerly come to the surface during feeding time, which is always a good sign. It’s nice to see them enjoy their meals.Balanced diet: The formula provides a well-rounded diet, including protein, vitamins, and minerals, which is crucial for their overall health. I feel confident knowing I'm giving them quality nutrition.Convenient packaging: The 30 oz size is perfect for both small and larger setups. It lasts a long time, making it a great value for the price.Cons:Size of pellets: Some of the pellets can be a bit large for smaller turtles. I recommend breaking them into smaller pieces for easier consumption, especially for hatchlings or juveniles.Overall, the Zoo Med Aquatic Turtle Food Growth Formula is an excellent choice for turtle owners looking to provide their pets with a nutritious and enjoyable diet. It’s effective, appealing, and offers great value. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to keep their turtles healthy and thriving!

Delivery was on time and this product is always liked by my turtle. The price was outstanding.

Ok we wall know the food works so what I'm about to claim is a little unorthodox.. Stop wasting money on fish food and feed this to your goldfish. My turtle has a tendency to keep a few goldfish alive and this current batch is going 1.5 years strong. They're so darn big, I contemplate calling PetSmart to check if they sold me Koi Fish. It's all the same crushed-up bugs so just try it.

This has been our go to turtle food. We have a red eared slider and I've cycled through several different types of food, from several pet stores. Ultimately we landed on this one and it worked. He has never had an issue eating, he put on weight and his shell cleaned up. Also, it was the best price on Amazon. 5 stars.

I should start by saying this "Zoo Med" brand is a good quality food for our Red Eared Slider.Found the little red eared slider laying upside down in our yard about a month ago and his shell has grown to 54mm wide (2.1"). Its main diet is Zoo Med hatchling formula (1/16" or 1.57mm) which fits in his mouth just right.As he grows to over 2" we wanted to find the next size food that's right for him.This Zoo Med "Growth Formula" pellet we just bought is too big for his mouth even though it states it's for turtles 2" and bigger. The label states the pellets are 3/16" (4.79mm) but they are actually bigger. Measured at 6 to 6.5mm which is way to big for the little ones mouth. I gave him one just to see but realized quickly it was too big and could possibly create a choking hazard. Took it out and broke it in half so he could eat it.I just want buyers to understand that it might be a little to early to feed this to a 2" or so red eared slider turtle and maybe wait until it fits in his mouth... :)In conclusion it's still good turtle food even though the measurements are not right. For now we'll keep feeding our little red eared slider his "Zoo Med" hatchling formula with occasional treats like blueberries, dried meal worms(yummy) and dried shrimp. :)

My turtle loves this food. It's gotten increasingly harder to find this in stores. I especially like the oz size of this item because I will have enough food for him and won't have to worry about him running out. I also love the clear containers because I can reuse them instead of throwing them in the trash.

The turtles are over 10 yrs old now. Seems to keep them in good shape

Great turtle food, its one of my turtles favorites, I keep buying it, but she's one turtle so it takes us a few years to go thru a container.
