Okay I have a two tanks, one with mollies and a gourami..and then another with angels and kissing gouramis. Which type of NLS food can I choose for them? Im not sure. It seems like there are so many.

Thanks guys

With your 2 tanks I would go with the NLS community fish formula.

Thats what I figured but I wasnt sure. I have heard great things. As soon as I stock my 40 gallon hex Ill order some from Als since the store I work at doesnt carry it.

Yeah community fish pellets are super mini pellets, whats not eaten get swept through the filter fast. Great pellets though. I had heard nothing but good stuff about them. I am thinking of changing my oscars to the wafers. I'm gonna start a thread and see what others think. I kinda know whats coming though. I'm gonna get NLS bombarded.

Just pay attention to size and whether it floats or sinks.

The only bad thing about NLS is that they don't have any small FLOATING pellets. They have a semi-floating pellet, which I am not sure how long it floats. Most people are on gravel and the pellets small enough for their fish simply are lost to the gravel.

The Grow formula is great for small fish and floats until disturbed. I use it in some of my tanks, community formula in the others.
