TetraFin Plus Goldfish Flakes with Algae

TetraFin Plus Goldfish Flakes with Algae are a premium staple flake for goldfish and small koi, sold in a 7.06 oz container (model 77247). The “Plus” refers to algae flakes mixed into the regular formula.

Why algae for goldfish

Goldfish are omnivores that graze on plant matter in the wild. A diet with extra vegetable matter supports digestion. Tetra adds algae flakes for this reason, and many keepers find it helps reduce the constipation that rich, protein-heavy diets can cause.

ProCare formula

Tetra includes its ProCare formula, which it says helps support the immune system for health and long life. Diet is one part of that; clean water and stable temperature matter just as much.

Clean and clear water

The flakes are designed to be easily digested, helping to keep aquarium water clean and clear. Goldfish produce a lot of waste, so lower-waste food helps your filter keep up.

Color

The formula also enhances the naturally bright colors of goldfish.

Feeding tips

• Feed small pinches once or twice a day.
• Give only what fish clear in a couple of minutes.
• For fancy goldfish, soak flakes briefly so they sink and reduce air gulping.
• Offer blanched peas or greens occasionally for extra fiber.

Compare

For fancies that do better feeding below the surface, Aqueon slow sinking granules are a good rotation partner. For the standard Tetra goldfish formula without extra algae, see Tetra goldfish flakes.

Who it suits

Goldfish keepers who want a widely available staple with a bit more plant content than standard flakes. Close the lid after each use and store the container somewhere cool and dry; flakes lose nutrients over time once opened.

Goldfish will always act hungry, so stick to small portions rather than feeding until they stop begging.

Variety keeps goldfish healthy and interested at mealtimes.
