Dry food for Apistogramma spp.

[inimicus]

Hi folks

can you tell me what dry food do you feed your apistos?

Any brand out there to recommend?

[Cacatuoides]

I feed mine Hikari Discus pellets, Tetra Color Pro....

[inimicus]

Hi Cacatuoides

any reason why you're feeding them these food?

[illumnae]

Tetra colour pro and New Life Spectrum. I find New Life Spectrum to be very good. enhances colours naturally and the apistos seem to love it

[inimicus]

Hi illumnae
i saw new life spectrum and was wondering if it was any good for that price. I might go try it out then.

[Wackytpt]

Ada Ap 1, Ap2, Ada Ap Gold 1 & 2.

[doubleace]

i feed them with Tetra pro color and Tetra discus crips.

[iwishweallcouldwin]

tetra pro colour and tetrabit complete.

New Life Spectrum (NLS) brings out colour more than my tetra pro colour did. my Ap. elizabethae "Super Red" female is starting to show a red belly after a month or so of feeding on this food. and she's definitely not a sneaker as she has laid eggs before.

previously, even when i was feeding astaxathin laced food (red enhancer), she did not show such good colour. needless to say, the male has coloured up even more vibrantly.

i didn't change anything but the food, it it has to be it. i believe that NLS doesn't put in special colour enhancers, so i believe it's the good food that puts the fish in good health and display better colouration

Tetra bits, Tropical Astacolor and NLS pellets

Hi bro if you want to get tetra pro colour. Na is having a discount now!!! Quite cheaper than other lfs i have seen...

[inimicus]

Wow

seems alot of folks using tetra pro color!

I would recommend NLS cichlid and growth formula for any dwarf cichlids.

[doppelbanddwarf]

I'm using Tetrabits. Will be trying out NLS when my Tetrabits run out.

[iwishweallcouldwin]

which NLS food would you guys recommend? would NLS cichlid and growth forumla be the best? What separates NLS from the other fish food?

Hope more bro out there who's using NLS food could share more information??? I would like to know more too.. Only know NLS is much more expensive.

[inimicus]

Hey exotic i was there as well today and got one NLS already!

My Viejitas took to it after the NLS pellet sunk and softened up. But water kind of cloudy after feeding. Does other folks here encounter water cloudiness as well after feeding?

[RHX]

Ya I've experienced it too. It was especially cloudy right after feeding. It was producing good results, so i'll just live with the it. Now i only feed them once a week.

[illumnae]

no water clouding problem for me. i do daily feedings of it except about once a week when i feed decap bs eggs or frozen bloodworms. as i shared earlier, i'm seeing a marked improvement in colouration

Here are some information and feedbacks on NLS products at PKF
New Life Spectrum premium fish food - Jeremy Gay looks at a new premium fish food being distributed by Neil Hardy Aquatica.

I personally like NLS Cichlid formula because of it small size(1mm) for easy digestion and the fact that it sink as it hits the water - most dwarf cichlids will fall for it while some simply don't take food from water surface at all.
