I feed mine a combination of flake food, bloodworms, tubifex worms, brine shrimp and their favorite...squished snails. They also like to eat the algae tablets I put in for the bristle noses and the bottom feeder tabs and shrimp pellets that I put in for the dojo loach. For my fry I take a mortar and pestle and grind up all of the above until it is the consistency of powder. They all are loving it! Good luck with your livebearers!

I make fry food this way:
OSI Brine Shrimp Flakes
HBH Veggie Delite 8 Veggie Flake
Tropical Pond Flakes (bulk)
Wardley Shrimp Pellets
Algae Wafers
Dried Bloodworms/Red Grubs
Whatever other dry fish food is on hand.
Put equal amounts of each ingredient into a bowl, grind with a pestle, or with the bottom of a spoon, into a powder, as PhonesMate does, pop it into a fish food container or other sealing container and voila! fry food extraordinaire!
