[troy tucker]

I under stand. I was just making the point. What they like and what is good for them is not always the same. kinda like Kids.

I'll bring some food sample over for you to try see what you like. I only have 2 tank, a 40g and a 10g so my fish food are often thrown away due to me leaving them on the shelf for too long... they don't go through food fast in my tank.

Not sure what your feeding but ive got nls pellets 1mm cichlid formula ifin ya want sum got a big bucket full and plenty to spare

Johnny, do they sink quickly? I listed what I'm feeding on the first page. I'm looking for something that sinks quickly but not because it's full of trash, lol. Like Troy said, they love the stuff cuz it's bad for them, but I'm only feeding it as a supplement. Just trying to improve their diet of my fish, meanwhile I survive on caffine & nicotine, lol.

They are like kids. They like the stuff that's bad for them but won't hardly touch the good stuff, lol. Heck that's like me, too!

Omega one pellet sink pretty fast imo.

It does. At least the shrimp pellets do.

Kyan just brought me some of the small Omega shrimp pellets. They sink pretty fast & they gobbled them up like candy.

The omega shrimp pellets is good stuff, expensive though.

[ScorpiosWife]

I'm gonna get some when these run out. Don't care if it's expensive, as long as it's good for them. :) Thanks yall!

[johnnymisty]

It sinks Purty quick if your feeding by hand just release it under the h2o

not really @_@.... 6 bucks for a bottle and it lasts me almost a year....

Actually Cobalt Aquatics food is pretty good too. But that one is expensive...

I went to nls Thera a 3mm sinking pellets and I add in kens spirulina sticks.

I have noticed incredible changes in my fish. The color, health and fullness of my fish is greatly improved since I went this route.

I also feed frozen krill every now and then.

make sure you look at the description before you buy though. They have both sinking and floating pellet. The super cichlid one will sink, so is the shrimp i brought over. The normal cichlid pellet will float.

This cichlid large pellet will sink but as I said... cobalt is quite expensive.

That would depend on what you're feeding, the big jar last maybe 3-4wks for me.
