Thanks guys for the earlier recommendation on the Algae Wafer.
Bought 1kg pack from C328, $37 only. Cheaper than Petmart $45.

Now my PNT only want to eat this and nothing else.

Half month finish more around half the packet liao.
Great eater.

The PNT I had from young will only eat the Algae Wafer as well
It's the one I adopted that eats everything but she likes the Algae Wafer lots also.

Can consider as Premium food for PNT.
Wonder why it likes it so much.
I think it is good for the overall health as well.

the algae wafer has flavoring or certain taste that makes turtle attracted to it

2ndly its sinking.. so lazy PNT dun have to swim up and eat the turtle sticks

haha thats my conclusion for it....

btw do u guys use feeders or PNT to cycle ur tank water?? since they are not much affected by chloramine in our water...

PNTs r still "sensitive" to ammonia n nitrite. so better to use feeders.

during cycling dont have to do any WC. u can add in bacteria to speed up the process. just monitor water parameters.

Never use PNT to cycle tank before.
Seems like a good idea though, the size of its poo.
