  1. For about a year now, I've been soaking fish food in a small bowl for around 10 minutes. And everyone seems to be eating well, but then I thought to my self, is it really necessary to soak it? I have Fluval Bug Bites and the granules are pretty hard. I also have Tetra Color Crisp and I thought it might be too hard to chew for the danios. I tried feeding them flakes (without soaking them) and they all ate it pretty well with no issues. I know its safe to feed them flakes dry but are the bug bites and crisp gonna cause them to bloat, and are they gonna be able to chew them? Thanks in advance.

     

     

    For a bit now, I've noticed every time I feed my fish, one of the rainbowfish swims to swim to the bottom of the tank, looking through the sand for food, but then after starts shimmying (just barely) then a few minutes later, swims to the top again and start acting normal. Is it alright, Is it something I have to worry about? Thanks for all answers.

  2. Recently, I started cycling a 75 gallon aquarium. I added some fish food in there to kick start it. But when I tested the water, the ammonia was only at 0.50 ppm, then I added more food the next day, same thing. but eventually, it got to 1 ppm. But I need at least 2 ppm. It has been a few weeks and it is still at 1 ppm (after adding food of course). Any ideas why this could be happening? Thanks in advance.
