What in your opinion is the best algae wafer out there and why. I have used Hikari in the past and my fish ate it well, I recently bought Omega one veggie rounds. I know there are many others out there, are either of these any good?
 
I will have to check it out when it's time to re up. Any thoughts on Omega one?
 
I used that one for a while, don't usually go to the fish section at Petsmart/Petco so I don't run into it as much. My plecos/clowns/pandas all ate it and did just fine. Too many terrestrial based ingredients as RD. RD. would say and I agree with. I tried the Hikari and the SD version and for some reason the fish didn't seem to like it. With the NLS even the cichlids bite pieces off.

Ok tnx I normally don't buy food from pet chains however I now have Wednesday off and my lfs is closed Wednesday. It's like a 35 min drive to go see Mac the fish store around the corner is a rip off
 
NLS AlageMax, IMO nothing else currently on the market compares. It contains a wide range of aquatic based vegetation including an impressive assortment of 9 types of algae and seaweed, and is sold in wafer form as well as pellets. Every fish in my tanks hammers it hard.
