For those of you who dont venture over to the Corydoras forum. Cories sure do like Spirulla Disk :blink:

Thanks for looking :D Please post your comments :good:
 
oh man, it's so fun to watch them right after feeding. weather loaches and cories everywere XD
I find mine really like sinking shrimp pellets, there sucked in whole :3
 
what are they eating?

They are eating Wardley Spirulla Disks. They also eat earthworm sticks, Hikari Sinking Wafers, Ocean Nutrition Flake Food, Hikari Algae Wafers, Frozen Bloodworms, and pretty much everything. They seem to go crazy over something they havent had in a while. Thats the first time Ive fed them spirulla disks in like 2 weeks and they loved it.
 
Great pictures - such fun to see the mad frenzy!
How many wafers do you drop in your tank? The reason I ask is because when I feed mine pleco wafers I put 3-4 in the tank, and the barbs snap them all up before the bottom feeders can get a look in. I am tempted to put more in for the other fish, but don't want to overdo it.
I tend to break them up a bit too, because they seem a little on the large side.

I had that problem when I kept my some of my cories with my loaches. I would drop flake food in at the same time as the wafers and they would go after the flakes instead of the wafers.

I only put one wafer in at a time and they munch on it for about an hour I guess. You could also pre-soak them in a cup of tank water so it will be easier for the cories to eat them.
