Whenever I feed my corys, they don't eat their food up they just nibble at it and leave bits of wafer tablet etc(whatever I feed them)

What I mean is that they don't finish their food. Am I feeding them to much ?

I don't want there to be food left over to pollute the water.

Any help would be welcome. Oh by the way I have C. Habrosus, there's only 3 at the moment but I will be gettin some more.

Well I have Tetra Tabimin and Hikari Algea wafers. I feed them once a day, and I break up the tablets into small pieces. They also eat flakes.

I never feed my corys, they eat leftovers from my fish.

Put in 1 tetra tab or 1 hikari algae wafer. Not both, they will finish this in a matter of time so it will not polute your tank.
