Flake Foods

To rate one of the foods listed, or look at user reviews and ratings of these foods, check out the user reviews section of this website.

Food Ratings/Info

Each flake food here is rated in 4 categories, Color, Smell, Clouds Water,  and Overall.  Put your mouse over the heading of any category to get a description of that category.  The information about Protein and FAT is taken from the information provided by the company that makes the food.

Company Product The cost per oz of the product. This will vary greatly between stores and between online and onshelf.

The minimum protein percentage in the product. It is generally considered that a higher is better.

The minimum fat percentage in the product. It is generally considered that a higher is better.

How well the product improves the color of your fish. Top is 5, average is 3, bottom is 1.

How the food smells. This would be how you think it smells, not how the fish thinks it smells. Most fish like their food smelly, and the smellier the better. 5 is a food that doesn’t smell bad, 1 is a food that smells terrible.

Does the food cloud the water? A 5 would mean not at all, a 1 would signify a fish food that makes the water very cloudy.

The overall rating for the food. This is NOT an average of all the categories. It is an independent rating of the OVERALL quality of the product.
