    Safe brands of silversides?

    I remember awhile back there was a conversation over good or trustable brands of silversides. The brand I normally use is Molly's silversides, which I feel comfortable with. I was just wondering if anyone knew anything about the Hikari silversides? I have a couple packs that I got from someone else, and I'd like to be able to use them, but they are mainly for my very old guy so I wanted to ask before I used them. The pack recommends them for 'most carnivores' including several freshwater fish, so I'd think the salt content isn't high in them...

    Yeah, the ones I normally use are Sally's. I'm going out to get some more of those tomorrow, but it'd be nice to be able to use the Hikari ones as well. I just don't trust fish I haven't heard reviews from, especially for Houdini since he's old enough to be more sensitive to anything bad.

    Nothing wrong with being cautious.
