A friend of mine bought these for his tiny turtle but he won't eat them so he gave them to me. Anyone use this food or know if this is decent? I just want to feed it once in a while for variety, i would still stick to the reptomin as the staple diet.

What are the ingredients and what's the protein content. For variety as part of the diet they should be OK.

I feed them to Toby and he LOVES them for some reason. I bought them when I first got Toby and didn't have a clue about proper foods. I only give them to him on occasion as a treat because I don't think they are a good staple food. They do sink, so your turtle will have to eat them from the bottom of the tank.
