Do you find that in your experience with dwarf gouramis, they don't tend to really eat flakes? I read in a bunch of places that they would accept floating flakes, and it seems correct except my gouramis tend to stay close to the bottom of the tank most of the time, or at least in enough vegetation where they don't even see the flakes before they get eaten by something else. I've been feeding them Bio-Bled tropical fish food that sinks and they've been eating that, but just wondering about your experiences.
