Hello guys, the last couple of months ive been loosing some fishes due to malawi bloat
i feed them Hikari cichlid excel and Gold as pellets and Seachem nutri diet, chlorella flakes and nutridiet cichlid flakes + Xtreme krill flakes
So the thing is, now i will try an experiment feeding only flakes as i think bloat could be due to the pelleted food.
Will the fish be OK, feeding them only flakes or do they require pelleted food also?
It could be due to overfeeding, but i feel like i dont overfeed them. i used to feed twice a day, and the food that i give them is eaten very quick.
ive heard different opinions about hikari food, some say its good, other doesnt.
i will buy Northfin cichlid formula and veggie version soon to try.
if i feed them any hikari pellets from now, i will only feed once a day.
The big question here is, if a diet consistent off Flakes only + Frozen Spinach and frozen mysis once a week, is sufficient enough?
I do, 30% water changes 3x times a week,and my PH is about 7.8 - 8.0
Thanks.
