My turtle doesn't approve

From my turtles view on this, he doesn't really care for it. Bites down and spits it back out. Leaves an oily film on the top of the water too, might not happen if he actually ate the food though.
Probably decent food, but my turtle must just be use to his sticks.

I got these for my Midland Painted Turtle when she was quite young along with All Living Things turtle sticks, bloodworms, shrimp and fish. I give my turtle variety and she preferred these of my other kind. Also, when ever she sees the container of this food, she goes absolutely nuts! Lastly, the nutrition value is awesome and makes my baby happy!
Pros: high quality, smell, taste
Cons: price

For anyone that has Aquatic turtles this is it. The Zoomed Aquatic- hatching, growth and maintenance products are what you are looking for. This has all of the good stuff that your turtle needs (very well rounded in supplements and all the needs of your turtle). There is only one product that can top this one and it is Mazuri aquatic turtle food. I prefer this one since I don't have a ton of turtles to feed so the size is perfect for me. Like I said if you want a health turtle to get everything they need without buying lots of stuff like calcium and vitamins. This is the one stop shop, it has all that your turtle will need. LOVE THIS PRODUCT.

I decided to change up the food for my Yellow Belly turtle and went the value route from the mostly "pro" favoured reviews but my turtle decided he wanted his sticks...lol
This product although good value i had to go purchase more food that my turtle had a taste for, so that tossed "value" out the door.
I would still recommend this product but a smaller volume as a tester, then decide to buy a bigger volume or not.
Pros: good value., didn't cloud water.
Cons: your turtle may or may not like it., because of the dislike there was more big pieces.

I used to feed my turtle Repto Min Plus. But it was horrible!! So I decided to use this one. My turtle LOVES it!!!! Its easy to chew for turtles. I like how its round and small. It doesn't cloudy up the water like some foods do. I would recommend this product to anyone who own turtles.

I bought this turtle food for my red eared slider and he loves it. Every time i feed to him he eats it right up. It has great nutrition and has great sized pellets for a 5 inch red eared slider. Also, it doesn't cloud the water very much. This is great food.

Good quality food. Turtles really like it. Round shape easy to eat. Leaves a bit of residue if uneaten, so don't overfeed. This is normal for dry foods though. This company has a lot of great products, check them out. I wouldn't use this or any dry food as the only food. Remember to give a balanced mix of dry foods for variety in textures and colors and flavors, as well as a variety of other food sources such as live or canned fish or insects and grubs, or cooked meats, and fresh fruits or vegetables.

I used this product when I was taking care of my friend's turtles. I loved it! I bought it because the food she provided me with ran out. When I feed this to them, I noticed the change in her turtles! They loved this food, and because of this, she decided to use this food instead of hers!

I've been using this product since the day I bought my turtles. They were recommended from the reptile store that I bought my turtles from. I've had turtles before and used to feed them sticks, so these ball pellets were kind of new to me. Surprisingly, my new turtles enjoy these ball pellets more than the sticks I try to feed them. They never seem to be full when I feed them these ball pellets. I've done research on turtle nutrition and these pellets seem to give them alot of the nutrition they need. This is a good brand and I recommend this product to your turtles too.

My turtles just love this food. One of my turtles follows my hand everywhere until I feed it. The other turtle just lays there.

I've been feed my five Red Ear Sliders this food for over three years now. The turtles like them and I found this works better than Reptomin. When I feed them Reptomin, they can way too much protein and their shells starts to pyramid. I switched them to Zoomed and they seem to get all the necessary nutrients just fine. THe protein contents is less that that you found in pyramid but too much protein creates a problem in the adult turtles. I would recommend this food to all adult aquatic turtles.
