## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is it soutble for all kind of fishes**
A: All tropical fish, not for salt water fish or gold fish...

**Q: are the flakes small?**
A: It’s a variety of size because some break up over time in the container.  They are like most flakes and I just take a pinch and break them up in my hand before feeding my small fish. I’d say some are small, some large.  They are very easy to break up for smaller fish.

**Q: can they be used in Eheim automatic feeder?**
A: This can be used in most automatic feeders.

**Q: Trying to order api goldfish flakes in 5.7 oz and need price**
A: I paid $12.81 back in August for 5.7 oz.
