When Should I Feed My Algae Wafers?

[Fishkeeper4567]

Hi. As you might know I have purchased a group of Otos catfish for my biube. Settling in very well. My question is when should I feed my algae wafers. Is it when the algae source runs out? or do I feed them twice a week? Should I also feed them at night as they are nocturnal and I have 3 fancy male guppy's who will eat it as well. Thanks for any advice. I am new to catfish and this is a next care level up for me.

I always feed algae pellets to my loach last thing at night just before lights out. That way other fish don't eat the loach's algae dinner!Might be a good idea to supplement your otto's food with algaepellets 3 times a week to get them used to eating pellets whennthe algae runs out and make sure thye are getting enough food now.

Thanks. One of them is sucking at the pebbles and the other two are on the acrylic and seem to swim around allot.
