So I have a 30 gallon tank what has a pearl gourami, 5 Platys, 7 Neon tetras, 6 Panda Corys and a BNP. It also has cherry shrimp and 5 mystery snails.
I currently feed flaked food 5 days a week. frozen blood worms 1 day and then fast on the 7th day.
My bottom feeders get either a bottom feeder pellet or an algae wafer a day plus whatever the free swimming fish don't eat that reaches the bottom. Once or twice a week I also add some blanched zucchini.
I'm not really interested in live foods, but other frozen foods are okay.
I was thinking I could add blanched pea's to their diet perhaps one day a week, maybe the day before their fast, just to make sure they aren't constipated or bloated.
But I was wondering if there was something else I could feed my tank, particularly my snails. They don't seem as active as they could be. I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions?
Also, I've read around the net that mystery snails can have problems not getting enough calcium. I've tried feeding them cuddle bone (Or whatever it's called, it's a bird treat) but they don't seem interested in it.
