Pellets?

Post by Aidenb »

So my 3.5" Fahaka has discovered his love for pellet foods for predatory fish. Will this be a calorie-dense enough diet to keep up with their activity levels? He lives with some clown loaches and so far behaves so the pellets go in every day anyway, he just eats half of them before the loaches get a chance now.

It's always best to feed a varied diet.

Oh he still gets everything else. He just tends to eat far less of it after filling up on pellets.

If he will eat them as part of his diet then that's good.
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly
