whats a good food

[cluster]

well i have several foods for my fish, from dry flakes,dry tubifex worms and tablets for bottom feeders, it seems like they all only really go after the tablets, unlessi get guppy feeders they tear them up, then tan k contains 2 angels,3 neons,1 synposis,1 cat,1 guppy who thinks she is a neon since all the males die and a bala shark and a beta wow more then i though heh

wa sjust really wondering what a food i could try for them ans do cichlids really go after angels till they die? i had a few b4 and would like them again at eleast just a decent sized pair

Omega One IMO is the best food out there. I use it as a staple for all my tanks. Keep in mind though that variety is very important. Maybe mix a little of the bloodworms, tubifex, etc. with your flakes when you feed? Omega One also makes great shrimp pellets and veggie rounds (wafers) which any of your fish can munch on.

Just feed a few different things, frozen live food is much better than freeze dried and the fish will go nuts for it. Just be sure to keep it varied (including different foods for different feeders) and minimal and you'll be grand.

Omega one is a great flake. They mae sveraly different kinds, but standard tropical flakes should be okay for your tank

I use Formula one flakes. My fish love it and they look really good and have great color.
They also get frozen boodworm, tubifex and live foods like mosquito larva and guppy fry.

i have those tubifex worms, if i put them in the tank they will stay for hours if i let them, bloodwroms were disregarded also so far the groundfeeder tablets by tetra and shrimp pellets is one of the only things these fishies want..... still searching for more so they can have a variety
