What is the experation date on the 4.52 bucket of Tetramin flake food?

Answer by Chewy • Jul 02, 2018
Every expiration date will be different for each jar or bucket, as different batches are constantly being produced. The expiration date will be stamped on the bottom.

I’m getting fancy guppies, is this food okay for them?

Answer by Chewy • Mar 20, 2022
This product is suitable for most tropical freshwater tanks, including cichlids. guppies, tetras, and similar fish.

Is this safe for Molly fish?

Answer by Chewy • Jan 19, 2021
This food is a nutritionally balanced staple diet for tropical freshwater aquarium fish.

We just bought some tetramini tropical flakes 4 lbs and the coloring is brown and dull not colorful as in the past. Is it safe to feed our fish or should we send it back

Answer by Chewy • Feb 25, 2026
The formula for this food has changed, so there is no longer color from artificial sources.

Best price...O'bucket of flakes!

Best value around. I have several freshwater fish in our designed ponds and aquariums. So, volume is key here in feeding them all and keeping costs down. Good price

Order solo or light products

Was wedged next to kitty litter and completely crushed and cracked. I had to sweep up the fish food to put into another container. Couldn’t they have wrapped it

Was wedged next to kitty litter and completely crushed and cracked. I had to sweep up the fish food to put into another container. Couldn’t they have wrapped it in more paper to prevent this? I’ll never order this again with other products. If I do it will be by itself to prevent this from happening again.

We've been using this food for many years. Every species I've offered it to eats it eagerly, including a few that supposedly wouldn't eat flaked food. We use automatic feeders on our tanks, so I grind some of it in a food processor in order for it to pass through the feeders. I used to store it in a zip bag in one of my freezers, but recently have started storing it in mason jars, which I vacuum seal. Either way, the food stays fresh and holds its color well. Buying the bucket is a much better value and a LOT more convenient than constantly having to purchase little containers.

Tetra invented flake food back in the 50s, and I've never had a problem. Yes, I've used it for that long. My latest purchase is eagerly accepted by my angels and tetras. It's part of a range of foods I use in their diet. I also like that the flakes are relatively big unlike the "dust" from some other companies. (Hear me Fluval? I love your lights, but the flakes need work)

Tetra fish food

We love buying the big bucket for our 55 gallon fish tank. It saves us money and lasts a long time. I am so glad that Chewy offers this product and at the price

We love buying the big bucket for our 55 gallon fish tank. It saves us money and lasts a long time. I am so glad that Chewy offers this product and at the price that it was. We saved money buying it from Chewy. After the holidays we will probably replace our filters and will get those from Chewy too. Thank you for offering these products.
