I'm starting to worry about my adf and julii cory not eating. I have these red danios that eat EVERYTHING that falls to the bottom! They never stop eating it seems. They even swim along the bottom looking for food constantly. I haven't seen the adf eat since I bought it about a week ago.

I normally just use flakes. I tried buying freeze dried bloodworms but I can't get them to sink.

Any suggestions?

Try pellets?

sinking pellets are good

I have 2 Albino and 2 African Clawed Frogs and they will only eat Frozen food. They love Bloodworms and Brime shrimp.

are they small enough for them to eat?


edit: my adf didn't make it :(

I tried some frozen bloodworms too. He didn't seem interested in the few that made it to the bottom. Then those danios go down and snatch em!!

I alternate feeding freeze dried bloodworms and baby shrimp and tetra crisps.

I grind the crisps up between my fingers as I put them in so that there is so many pieces (but not a lot of food) falling at the same time that all of my bottom feeders get a chance to eat.

Soon as I put the frozen food in the tank the frogs go wild searching for it. If I put flakes or pellets in the tank they do not touch it.
