Can anyone tell me how big these are? They are unavailable in the UK and before I order some from the US I want to see how big they actually are. Thankyou :)

I believe they're about 1" long and slightly bent. Approximately the size of "Tetra Jumbomin" if you're familiar with those feed sticks.
 
Just measured one at 3/4''. They have (I think?) a lot of air in them though, so once they hit the water they'll expand quickly to like double that size if not immediately eaten.
 
X2 I used to feed my fish the jumbo carnisticks very messy so I went back to using regular sized ones less mess and since my fish are large they swallow them whole no chewing so no crumbs

Yeah I generally stick to the jumbomin for my cichlids and bichers. Personally I like it better.
 
The smaller carnisticks are better. Less messy and the jumbo ones stink up the room. Im using them now for my silver aro and severums even my rays go up to get them. Good food just not practical
 
there 3/4 of an inch and they absorb water , when you fish chew them they are messy but its not that big of a deal. my fish love them!
 
Thanks for the info, I may look into the tetra food first.
