	Pygmy cories-feeding question?
tetrasrcool Fingerling Posts: 37 Kudos: 31 Votes: 1 Registered: 26-Dec-2005	Edited by tetrasrcool I just got 8 new pygmy cories. Very cute! I bought Hikari sinking wafers to feed them. I tried crushing a piece of a wafer into smaller pieces but the other piggy fish ate them! If I drop a piece of a wafer in there whole, will they be able to eat it? They seem so tiny!

My cories really enjoy eating sinking shrimp pellets and they tend to break up a bit as they get soggy so they might be easier for your pygmies to eat. If your worried about them getting enough food try the shrimp pellets, even if they were eating enough they would probably thank you. I know mine love them.
