Fish Fanatic
I have to admit that I don't do variety of food, but mostly because I did have lots of platy fry before and flakes were the only food small enough for them to eat. Now that I don't have them anymore I can feeding more different food. I have tetra fresh delica range: bloodworms, daphnia and brineshrimp, that I tried a few times before, but it's difficult to feed unless all the fish is at the top and used to feeding. With constantly growing stock over the past couple of month, it was difficult enough to get new fish to eat flakes from the bottom of the tank ( for example it took almost two weeks for my Bolivian rams to start swimming to the top). But now that I'm fully stocked, it's going to be easier. I will also probably switch from energy crisps because even my large fish (pearl gouramis) have to bite them 4-5 times before they break into pieces, so it can't be good for the digestive system.
