They loved it, and I continue to give it to them occasionally to vary the diet. I would need persuading on the garlic, though. I once unthinkingly put my hands in the tank after crushing garlic in the kitchen and the three resident fish went so off-colour and slunk around the substrate so much I gave them an immediate water change.
