Feeding Cory Cats

[Sterbai]

Hi, well my sterbais are eating but not a lot, they look really thin. I've had them 6 months so they must be eating something. I've recently added some frozen bloodworm which they really liked but I understand it isn’t great, so I was wondering what do you guys feed your cory cats. Thanks!

bloodworms fine but only as a treat say once a week i give brine shrimp 2 they seems 2 enjoy that u could try algae tabs every so often but my main daily food for them is tetra prima. oh u can also give em corgette / cucumber mine seems 2 enjoy this also but i'd probably only give them it once a week 2 .

hope that was helpful
