BH, BW

[DEA]

an easier question is what DON'T you feed to your cories
they eat just about anything you throw to them
HOWEVER, MINE don't touch beefheart, for some strange reason

they seems to like this, yum yum.

small bottle of 85 tablets cost me $4.

if you can't use bw, then i suggest trying tetra plecomin
petmart has them, i think at 12 for the big bottle, and they like it a lot

just got a bottle of Sera Viformo, the fishes simply love it.. but there is one prob.. my congo tetras always snatch the tabs from the gravel and carries it away to somewhere else to munch &*^&%^$%^

[coryfav]

right, try sera viformo!

that is, if you don't mind your other fish trying to get a share too.

somehow they think it's one of the most delicious thing in the world...

[tawauboy]

thanks for info.
will try both sera and tetra and also algae wafers.

I feed my cories with bw and hikary sinking wafer (not the algae wafer). The Hikary sinking wafer that I use has picture of corry at the packaging. The algae wafer is more for ancistrus type catfish, even they prefer the other one.

Ikan, where did you get the Hikari Cory food?

I've been looking for it.

Thanks a lot.

[coryfav]

have you tried petmart? that's where i got mine, but that's sometime back.

hikari was my corydoras' first tablets. before that i gave discus granules, cos i didn't know there're actually tablets for bottom-feeders!!![]

now my corydoras have 5 types of tablets, for variety...[:0]

[bleeder]

I feed my leopard and albino cories with the Hikiri Sinking Tablets. They seem to like it. Got mine from Petmart.

Simon,
What you can do is to feed your cories once your tank's lights go out and the room is dark. I have read the cories are nocturnal and they should be able to find the tabs without any harrasment from the other fishes. Try it out and see! [:]

the hikari tablets don't seem to attract c. pygmaeus though
