 |
|
Hi,
I lately ordered quite a few dubiosis and frontosa from a dealer who advertise here on IAH and to my expectations the size was much smaller as claimed by the dealer.Anyways...the fry are quite small...the fronts may be hardly 1.5 inches...what should i feed them with...as if now i am feeding them flake food and azoo micro pellets...and dubiosis may be an inch long...i am feeding them with hikari veg spirulina flake.....i will be obliged if any one could enlighten me on good feeding tips.
regards |

Feed them with any sinking pellets. TetraBits is the best option.  |

Dear Fishyman
You can also feed hikari Deep sinking and Bio gold,I personally prefer those and if you can find Dainichi Viggie Max then nothing is better than it.
Regards

Juvenile fronts take some time to settle in but once settled they will eat right off your hand (mine did), when i got my fronts they were about the same size as yours, they are normally sold at that size. They would also love BS and Daphnia
Madhu from Salem (Madhu_Ulysses) kept his dubiosis in a tank outside his house and let green algae grow naturally, at some point of time the tank was filled with algae and the fish could not be seen, the fishes were happily munching away on the algae.. |

Try TetraBits.
Frontosa loves TetraBits better than any other dry food. IMO  |
