okay, so i went fish food shopping for my fishies and bought a few tidbits....

i've got on hand:

Tetra Colorbits tropical granules
Tubifex worms
Freeze-dried Bloodworms
Shrimp pellets
HBH Betta Bites
TetraMin Tropical Color enhancing flakes
and Algae Wafer Discs....


I've heard Bettas like bloodworms... but.. mine... wont touch em

AND

NONE of my fish will eat the tubifex worms.... whats up with that?

also... my mollies prefer algae wafers to flake food... i've got to hide em for the pleco to get any....

i have some weirdo fishies.....

on a lighter note... my panda cories are about as long as the shrimp pellets.. its pretty funny to watch em try to eat.

You bought quite alot of varied fish food & you must feed your fish alot of different fish food, so they'll start to eat them all & have a varied diet.

Try to leave your fish without food for a day or two & they will eat what they usually don't like.

Are your tubifex worms freeze dried? I've found that very few fish that I've kept really like the freeze dried ones. The exception to this were a large school of neons that I had at one time and they would wipe out a chunk in no time.

yes they ARE freeze-dried... but i figured the mollies would eat ANYTHING.. those kids are like rabid dogs i swear! yeah i might wait a day or two and see how that works....

i didnt buy all that food in one lot, its just some stuff ive acquired... i bought the shrip pellets for my new cories and the tubifex worms last night.. the other stuff ive been putting a little bit of each in the tanks...

By doing this you could be over feeding and they are just not hungry.

I rotate the food each day the only food I use each day is the sinking algae tabs which I break up.
