I just picked up a can for myself today at the local pet store for $2.99. you get 3oz (85g). For that price I didn't even hesitate to buy them. The ingredients don't look too bad but instead of having krill as their color enhancer they have brine shrimp, fish meal, and shrimp meal. Probably lower quality ingredients than the other brands but who knows. I started feeding it to my fish today. Nobody was overly interested in it but they ate it. I'll keep feeding it and see if does anything for them but I'm feeding all kinds of other food too so I will probably never see a difference.

Has anybody else tried it? if so How was your experience with it?
 
it's no good. They sell this in LFS and much cheaper then other brand. Unless you can't find grand sumo or ching mix then use this as dry food is fine. Then again FH need to have variable of food not just pellet.
 
I've used it on my flowerhorns, the food works fine as long as your Flowerhorn is big enough to eat it...I noticed these pellets are freaking hard as hell and takes a while before they soften up, they cost 7.89 over here in CA for those pellets in a 6.69 oz 190 gram container. The price is much better compared to the over priced grand sumo and ching mix...
 
Grandsumo is the best flowerhorn food but too expensive.
 
I ordered some from an online store and when I got it I noticed it was TINY. I called OSI and asked if they knew how large FHs got, they replied yes. I then asked if they plan to make larger FH pellets available and they said no, and sent me a free bottle of the nasty large cich pellet. My FHs didnt even know I fed them the pellet was so small. I ended up mixing it in with other foods and feeding it to growouts. I am not a fan of OSI and take into consideration the fact that they market a mini pellet only for FHs.
