Food For My 3-Lined Cory

[twodoctors]

Hi all,

I bought my 6 corys about on Wednesday. Started feeding it 24 hours later with Tetra catfish sinking tablet. Because they haven't found each other yet (2 at one end, 4 at the other end of the tank) I put 2 tablets in. No only did they not touch it, my tiger barbs ate most of the tablet. Tried again today, and my tiger barb ate most of it again. There are flakes that comes off the tablet and I think the corys are scavenging for those. I must be doing something wrong. Please enlighten me!

Bought some different catfish food. This time it is mini sticks which sinks very quickly. Again, the barbs are trying to eat them. Now my new sajica cichlids are also having a go. These catfish food produces lots of crumbs. My only worry is water pollution but the corys seems to be only scavenging on those.

My Tri's eat anything,but mini granules etc tend to sink better than most,try feeding at night when the lights go out,the corys will soon find it has they scavenge at night
