Chewyrat77 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I'm currently feeding my fish Tetra flakes and occasionally some community repashy gel. What are some other foods that I can feed to change things up a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other suggestions. I was thinking the Hikari freeze dried blood worms or vibra bites. The vibra bites worry though because of possible bloat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like they would swell alot. Also what flake do you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colu Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I have been feeding them to my tetras for a couple of years and haven't had any problems with bloating Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gardenman Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Freeze-dried tubifex worms are loved by my swordtails. Be careful with freeze-dried bloodworms. Lots of people get allergic reactions to them. (Myself included.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fonske Posted August 4, 2021 Share Posted August 4, 2021 Algae. Or algae tablets. My platies and especially molly love fresh algae more than any dry food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also what flake do you recommend? I crush my vibra bites into smaller pieces for guppy guppy fry and juvenile panda Cory and have no issues. Full size for bristlenose pleco. Size I crush to depends on how big the fish are. Never had bloat or any issue with any hikari product. Most quality brand foods that fit in their mouth work for me. I just watched coop video where Cory feeds floating (I think goldfish) food I have to rewatch and his fish (can’t remember which but possibly mollies?)nibble on it like crazy. I’m going to rewatch and try that to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I've noticed that mine constantly graze on the algae in the tank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
