Fish Fanatic
I keep buying different food for "top or middle feeders".
All of it sinks to the bottom pretty fast.
What the heck?
I'm tired of watching Rummy's rooting around in the rocks for their lunch.
I got Bio-Blend Tropical yesterday figuring maybe it's little pellets would be better than the flakes at staying up a while. The stuff is like sinking pellets. IT goes straight to the bottom. Worse than that, none of the fish even like it. Some of them catch the pellets in their mouths but can't swallow them so they just let go of them.
Flakes will stay up there a few seconds but they sink too quick too. By the time fish notice them, the stuff is on the floor.
Now a cube of tubifex will float, and so will freeze dried blood worms. But the blood worms are just too big for most of my fish and the tubifex is completely ignored unless I crumble it up.
