Feeding Tetras

[bikeman]

I have just moved from goldfish to tropicals (managed to offload the last goldfish to a shop rather than kill another). So far my Neons and Golwlight Tetras seem happy on my old goldfish flake so I am tempted to continuieusing it until it runs out. Is this going to create a problem?

Thanks

Not really. It's not ideal, but the better brands of flakes cover most eventualities. Remember however, that variety is the spice of life. Your tetras will enjoy some frozen bloodworm or other quality frozen food.

I see nothing wrong with using your goldfish food as part of their diet - the food isn't all that much different anyway.
