*creative subject line about how great this stuff is*Jun 26, 2007
By the2989
I have a young painted turtle, and I had to find some food for it. I read some reviews of the ReptoMin foodsticks throughout the internet, and I figured I'd go with it. So, I go here to Amazon (because they have everything, no joke), find it in no time, and click the buy button. A couple days later, the stuff ships, and to my suprise, this isn't some small-fry food shaker. This is the mondo-ultra kingsize box when you compare it to the size of my turtle. I'll be glad in the future, because I know I won't have to reorder it anytime soon. Anyways...
I take out a couple pieces of food, and drop them in the water for the turtle to go at. Right away, the little booger turns around, sees the food, and takes after it. This stuff is like a turtle's delicious cake. Naturally, I found out that I had to soak it for a few minutes to let it soften up for the young turtle to be able to eat, but it doesn't matter to the turtle, he just loves the stuff (well, don't soak it too long or all of the flavor will dilute). He never did go through any kind of "Hmm, I've never seen this before, therefore it's probably gross. I won't eat it" type of stage. He dove right in. I've been feeding it to him for a little over a month now, and he's growing quite rapidly (I don't actually know the gender yet, fyi, you can't tell on young turtles such as this one). What can I say, he loves this stuff. I'd recommend it with full force, and when the time eventually comes, I'll buy it again.

You can break them in half if they're too big for your turtles. I've been feeding them ReptoMin since they were newborns. They love it!

Best Price Around for a Excellent Product.Aug 08, 2011
By John Eng
My Red Ear Sliders aren't too picky about what they eat. However when it comes to a consistency Tetra's Reptomin sticks are the best. I tried others in large or bulk quantities and this one in my opinion, is best in food quality and consistency. I bought others and I get big clumps of sticks stuck together or product variations. The Tetra turtle sticks dissolve a little slower, giving my turtles more time to eat them whole. These sticks work great with my auto feeder, allowing more equal distribution each time it's on. My turtles are getting bigger so I had to buy bulk. Amazon has the best price around PLUS free shipping. At pet stores I've seen this 2 pound bag cost almost $50.

Turtle loves!Feb 17, 2011
By Amazon Addict
My turtle is a huge fan of this product. He finished a bottle of 1.94 oz in like three months. But since he is getting bigger, he also consumes three times as much. Definitely recommend as part of diet along with vegetables.

a good value and nutritional productNov 04, 2009
By m w mccoy
If you have a large aquatic turtle, or a lot of aquatic turtles, this product is a necessity. It makes sense to buy in bulk, and this is a nutritional, balanced product. Use it as the base food, supplementing with fresh fruits and vegis and treats. If you have young aquatic turtles, I suggest the mini ReptiMin sticks until they get big enough to comfortably eat these regular sticks. Turtles can have big appetites, and the ReptiMin will fill them up. Buying it in the 2.5 lb package makes it easy to never run out.
