bottomdweller_fan Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I feed my ornate bichir NLS pellets and wafers, live platys, live ghost shrimp, frozen mysis shrimp and frozen bloodworms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatpuffer Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Staple diet of NLS pellet and omega shrimp pellets. Frozen shrimp and smelts for treats. Js Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest FLIP Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 how about frozen prawn shrimp, tubifex, blocks of frozen mysis shrimp and hikari pellets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatpuffer Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I find the smaller frozen foods too messy. The frozen shrimp i buy are the same as human grade shrimp and cut it into half inch chunks. Clown loach and bichir loves it...other fish leaves it alone and goes for the NLS instead.

Guest FLIP Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 well what kinda foods are similar to nls pellets I can't afford nls well I can but it's still to much money for fish food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratos Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 how about frozen prawn shrimp, tubifex, blocks of frozen mysis shrimp and hikari pellets? I've always had very good luck with market prawn cut into small pieces. I have tried Hikari sinking carnivore pellets too, but my more aggressive feeders seem to always get these pellets first.
