Thanks for the advice...saw one big packet at C328. Too much for me to take all...wondering if anyone is keen to share?

Not too well for axelrodi..they're been bullied by my blue emperor and they're not eating...Not touching the NLS pellets...should i feed them with frozen BS?

Have already isolate them in the floating tank

I bought a batch of 6-8 fish some time ago at Wuhu. They were in my 2 feet-low maintenance- crypt-cherry shrimp tank. Due to their size, they only accept crushed granules. But yes, they are crazy over live bbs. Other types of food like live daphnia, frozen daphnia etc only so so (I suppose they don't find it delicioius). Forget about feeding with food bigger than their mouth size. Now have about 4 surviving in the tank. I think they don't do well with bigger tankmates.

I agreed with your observations...they seems to be dropping like flies...that explains why they're not that popular...well,keeping my fingers crossed...some do take in the frozen daphnia..last opinion will be liquid fry or those egg yolk...

Another option would be very VERY finely crushed pellets?I usually pour some out onto the lid of my fish food can and then "ground" them using the base. Alittle messy i understand,but it really does wonders to fishes that have really tiny mouths! I experienced pretty good survival rates with my axelrodi and other similarly tiny sized fishes so far. They seeve through the pellet "cloud" and my bororas also enjoy them.

I keep my NLS in an ikea pepper grinder. a short twist every day and all my small fish get fed

YiXiang, that's sooo innovative!!

They get crushed like powder?

hmm...been conditioning them to take daphnia...seems to be okie...no more casualty unless they manage to escape from the floating tank and kana attacked by the blue emperor... most are showing colouring already...

Don't think they are able to do well over in my tank because of the blue emperor..
