All you can do is spread out the food and hope, aggro at feeding time is common with dps. Thanks, I tried that today and it seemed to work pretty well. Ya, trying to equally feed dps is a task within itself. You can try to not feed for a few days, to get the one that isn't eating as much hungrier s...

Since a week ago I have three dwarf puffers in my tank. When it's feeding time one of them always overeats, one eats normally and the third one is more interested in chasing away the others from the food rather than eating, so he doesn't eat much at all.

The thing is, it's also homemade and is pretty high for its size, so there's not as mu...

So I decided to start a GSP tank. What I'd like to do is to bring it up to the right salini...
