OfficialThomas Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) Hi! I got some corydoras a few days ago and I have started feeding them algae wafers from Hikari. Is this a good food for them? What else should I be feeding them? Thanks so much! Edited December 21, 2021 by Thomas H Title was incorrect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 a good sinking pellet food would be much better. cory's arent big algae eaters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. Payne Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Find a good quality sinking carnivore pellet/stick and supplement with frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms and tubiflex. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would Hikari Sinking Wafers (not the same as algae wafers) be a better option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T. Payne Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Yes, they would be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beardedbillygoat1975 Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 They are fans of high protein foods. I use Tetra Color Tropical granules, betta pellets, krill flake, freeze dried and frozen tubifex, blood worms and brine shrimp as well as freshly hatched baby brine shrimp and once a week I do spirulina flakes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mamabliss Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 All my corys love the various repashy foods. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) My Pygmy and panda as well as previous albinos go bonkers for frozen foods bloodworms (ground with a cheese grater for Pygmy) mysis shrimp frozen bbs etc. live bbs creates pandemonium (🤣pun intended). Hikari sinking catfish in the orange bag with pictures of corydora on the front ( I can’t think of the name it still dark in the fish room sorry) are the top favorite of all 3 corys. Fluval bug bites bottom feeder and pleco formula are the second favorite in prepped foods. cory need meat based proteins.edit add… Read labels to find ones to try.

AndEEss Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Hikari vibra bites + bottom feeder wafers, brine shrimp, blood worms. Those are what I feed my cory cats, yoyo loaches and Colombian tetras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
