Food Waste

[Jake Jackson]

Just a wuick question. After putting algea wafers and sinking shrimp pellets into the tank, how long should I leave them in there before I try and remove the uneaten foods?

Hmm. How long have they been there the longest?? Just wondered as when I put them in (normaly at night for wafers) there are never any left to remove lol. Maybe if your having some left cut down on the amount you put in.

I think they say remove uneaten after 24-48 hours??

how many fish do you have in your tank? the more fish, the longer you should leave it.
i agree that i never have any wafers or pellets to remove the next morning,
are you sure your fish eat what your feeding them, are they fish in the tank that will live of algea wafers?
if any is still there in 24hours, remove it to be safe
