Hi Josh,
I am using it now but probably will not reorder it. Most of my discus will only eat it if starved. A few don't care what you put in the tank and will eat it right up. Basically it is just beefheart with quite a few additives.

Re:Jack wattleys discus formula cubes?
i remember reading ingerdients jack wattley discus cubes and it says it has garlic in it ,maybe your fish dont like garlic ,but i would make an effort to get them used to it because it strengthens their immune system therefore makes them more resistant to sickness and disease.dont want to sound like an expert but thats what i was told by breeders and importers. i prefer to incorporate garlic in my own beefheart recipe or you can get it done for you already.

Josh...
heres what I feed...juvs
flake...
hbh meat lovers
hbh discus and angel formula
earth worm flake
tetra bits
jehmcos better sinking bits
Hikari discus Red
frozen... san fran bay brine shrimp, hikari blood worms,
san fran marine cuisine, Mysis relicta, beef heart mix, deer, shrimp, and occasionally squid.
live ... earthworms (compost ), red worms (culture), California Blackworms.
adults get the same but no flakes....they don't care for them.
I'm probably missing something, but its a start

Hector,
It's not the garlic with my fish. I use garlic in my beefheart mix and they eat that all the time. It could be the spinach or just about anything else.

Re:Jack wattleys discus formula cubes?
I use it, and my fish like to eat it.
It's very messy though, so I only do it before a w/c. It leaves a film.
I believe that it's the JW Community Formula that has the garlic. I haven't seen the Discus Formula with garlic. Or it just may be my lfs doesn't carry the Discus Formula with garlic.

It's okay... I use to use it but then I found out the magic secret ---> you can MAKE your OWN ! ! ! For the price of buying the 7oz cubes you might as well make your own stuff.... all that you have to do is read the ingredients and make it all up yourself...you'd be suprised as to how much you can make at a low cost. JMHO.

If your wife is doing that for you, she's definitely a "keeper"....

Ya she has passed the final tests,and I think I will keep her. I guess your saying not too many wives out there are willing to grind BH and other goodies with you for the sake of "the children"?

Re:Jack wattleys discus formula cubes?
Oh man she's totally a keeper.... do you know how many times I get the dreaded "STINK EYE" for working in the kitchen on my mixes... Geezus I've even resorted to doing the deed when she's not at home rushing to clean everything up and disinfect the kitchen before she comes home. Then all of a sudden once she enters the door **BAM** I get the dreaded eye...."you've been making that stinky fish food" look.... It's like a sixth sense or something cuz I feel I covered my tracks and next thing you know I'm trying to get myself out of a whole...

I start fish on the Wattley discus at about 2 months- and they eat it fine. Will not eat my formula! I am a bad cook. Frank :
