the thing is, they wait for the food to go under the filter exit which sends the food downwards, and they end up chasing it, but quite alot hits the floor and gets stuck. eventually the food is all gone but i can still see food under the stones.

lol oops, oh weel, they seem to be fine still, but nxt time will net the new ones. Might be goin to LPS wednesday, dont worry peeps, its just to see what they got. Will get more fish AFTER cycle lol mite look into some floor eaters, cuz the guppies dont seem to eat the stuff off the gravel and...
