Which is the best flake food for small fishes?

Unread post by SCORPIO »

Sometime, it is not comfortable for small fishes to eat big granules of fish food. Fishes like as Horadandia atukorali, Endlers all fell problems in eating Tetra Bits etc. I want to know a good food for these small fishes. Food granules should be sink slowly.

Any size wafers will do, better than sinking foods as Juanico says. I once tried Aquafin and nothing else later.

I like Sera Marin flakes, has tiny bits of dried shrimp also in it. Tetra color pro is also good. NLS 1mm sinking pellets the best for small fishes.

Couple of good options
1. Do Aqua - Spirulina Flakes & Brine Shrimp Flakes
2. Hikari micro pellets
3. Tetra Gel based - Bloodworms & Alage
