Would this be OK for tetras and pond gold fish

Thanks for asking! This diet is best for Cichlids as its formulated to meet their nutritional needs. You should get a pond fish specific diet. We hope you find this helpful! For more help contact Tetra at PHGAmazon@spectrumbrands.com. We are happy to help!

why doesn't the Tetra container a better seal for delivery purposes?

I can tell you my container came home with no problem, I dont have any problem with the way the container seal.

Ok for angelfish...the other cichlids?

This food is excellent for any type of small mouthed cichlid.

Is this ok for African Cichlids? I have Yellow Labs, Hongi, Acei, and 1 peacock?

Yes, this has been my primary flake food since starting our Africa Cichld tank a year ago. I will pass on some pearls of wisdom: ONLY 1 person should be responsible for feeding the fish. Don't take turns, just 1 person only. And then feed very little. If any food hits the gravel you've fed TWICE what they need. Change 25 to 50 percent of the water once week, clean the gravel with a Python Syphon at least every other water change! Last make sure to clean the filter only in removed tank water, NOT chlorinated tap water!

Ciclids love it

I like this food. It does not all fall to bottom of tank quickly. Fish get a chance to eat it first. I just like it better than the multicolored food.
