    Hi all apisto keepers, what kind of food do you feed your adult apistogrammas everyday? I'm feeding Tetra bits complete, but it seems that they don't like it, but I don't want to revert back to frozen BW as it caused my fish to suffer from internal bacteria problem. So I would like to hear from you.

    Hey Vincent,

    I don't seem to see Sera Premium Pellets on sale, where do you get yours from?
    Is it a new product, can't find it in Sera's website too

    Hi WKS, I am feeding my apisto with the same food as you. They love it very much and the rest of the fishes too. BW is only once in a blue moon feast for them.

    Jeff, you meant to say Wardley?

    Where you got the live BS from? I am trying out pin head crickets too.
    That one more mafan, I have to hold the cricket with a pincer and dangle it in front of the fish. So only one cricket per apistogramma.

    Eman,

    yes. I am referring to that.

    i decapsulated some brine shrimp eggs for my a. bitaeniatas.
    they seem to take it without being fussy.
    but i had to starve them a little before they tried it.
    once they confirm that its like BBS... feeding was a breeze!
