## Questions & Answers

**Q: Are these also good for snails?  I know I'm getting a snail to eat the algae on the tank but if it devours all that's there, can these be used?**
A: Yes, snails love algae wafers!

**Q: How long should i keep this in the tank?**
A: Our fish eat there wafers right away.when we do our tank cleaning anything left is cleaned out

**Q: Are these wafers bigger or smaller? I have a 5 inch pleco and she needs bigger discs.**
A: Yes, they are bigger size wafers and I like this product. However, I still supplement my pleco's diet with cucumbers, green beans, and other veggies. Pleco's can't live off of wafers, they don't really eat algae after a certain size.  I have a 9 to 10 inch pleco that I've had for 8 years and veggies and driftwood are what he really eats. Hope that helped!

**Q: What is the difference between these and the “bottom feeder pellets” by api?**
A: Honestly they are the same

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Snails and fish love them
*by Z***H on January 8, 2026*

My snails and fish prefer these over other brands, they sink fast and don't make a mess. The price is great.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Good Quality Brand That Has Kept My Fish Healthy For Years

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reliable Algae Wafers That My Bottom Feeders Actually Eat
*by R***D on February 22, 2026*

API Algae Eater Wafers have worked pretty well in my setup. They sink fast, hold together long enough for my bottom feeders to graze, and my fish take to them quickly. I like that they’re not just cheap filler; there’s a decent mix of plant ingredients and protein so I feel okay using them as a regular food. The only real downside I’ve seen is that if I drop in too many, the leftovers start to mess with the water, so I’ve learned to break the wafers up and feed lightly. Overall, I’m satisfied with them and would keep using them, as long as I manage the portions.
