Feeding time.....

[keane]

Hi folks,

currently keeping 4 gourami (2 three spot/2 opaline), 2 rams and 4 platys.

i will soon be getting a group of leopard cories (4 or 5), then some otos (3 or 4) and hopefully/maybe later on a couple of kribensis.

I am currently feeding the ones I have with flakes and nothing else, which seems a bit miserable.

I know the cories will like algae wafers but aside from this does anyone have any suggestions on some speciality treats for the others (peas, bloodworm etc...)

not sure what fish eat what!!

help please!

EDIT: Sorry folks this was meant to be posted in the tropical chit chat section. All help still appreciated though!!

EDIT 2: could one of the MOD's move this for me please? thanks very much.

What size tank is it as you mentioned you were getting some kribs, daphnia,river strimp. brime strimp, tubilex worms but I would only advise them in freeze dried variety, broc,cucumba,lettuce,green cabbage,brown bread but not often only as a treat.

Hi,

tank is a 30 gallon.....4' x 1' x 1.5'.

is that ok for kribensis or might it cause problems? was advised by LFS that they should be compatible with the gourami etc...

if not gonna be good for the other fish then won't get. main aim is to get some of the bottom dwellers/algae eaters.

cheers
