Catfish Pellets

[Akasha72]

Hi all,
I'm having problems getting food to my cories. I have flake for the guppies and platies and catfish pellets for the cories. The problem is once my guppies and platies have eaten all the flake they then set to fighting over the catfish pellets whilst the poor cories sit and watch. I've had one cory try and chase the guppies and platies away from time to time but the other 3 just sit there.
I'm worried they're not getting enough to eat. Has anyone else had the same issue and found a way to deal with it?

thanks

Akasha

Why dont u feed them at night times. When the lights are out?

Took the words out ma head there
Have you tried feeding them the small ball shaped pellets as well as wafers? My corys love them. I put them in after I'v put everythin else in so they get the chance to feed.
But in failing that... Swans idea is your best shot

okay, thanks. I'll try that

Another thing i used to to was put some of the pellets or wafers in one of the caves they hide in.

Just remember to check they are not rotting away after a while

I've tried that, the other fish just go and get it out and fight over it. I have very greedy fish I think and the cories are so shy that they're the one's losing out.
