Bloodworms, brine shrimp, and occasional shaved beefheart.

Breeders & fry get it in rotation once daily, others get it every other day.

Bloodworms & brine shrimp get tossed in a small glass with some dechlored water to thaw, then squirted into tanks with a large dropper. Beefheart gets gets shaved while frozen, then distributed among tanks.

What is a good frozen food to feed corydoras?
Almost anything. My primary frozen foods are: Hikari blood worms, daphnai and cyclopeze.

How often should I feed?
I feed most of my Corys twice per day. If I'm conditioning them, 3 or 4 times per day.

How do you all prepare your frozen foods before feeding them?
Thaw and use. No prep required.

Hope this helps. - Frank

Blood worms and this meat stuff called community feast. Its like shrimp, heart etc mixed up. Both frozen.

Everyone in the tank loves it.

I will keep an eye out for that community feast stuff. Sounds like a great mix!

Ive used community feast aswell but have noticed it dirtys the tank up for some reason and i avoid feeding it to my corys. But it might just be my tank. It probably is

please dont rely on frozen food for your corys. I used to do this until i actually found out that they dont hold a great deal of nutritional value. Look to offer a dry food in the morning ( tetra prima or tetra tabimin) and a wet food at night, be it bloodworms, chopped earth worth etc.

Personally, feed gamma bloodworm as it has been gamma irridated to prevent any nasties getting in with the food.

I already use a Tetra color flake food and tabimin (from the OLD school days, still a good food I guess )

I want to thank you all for the good sound advice...
