feeding fish..

[Marx]

Ok i noticed something..

all the tetras (bloodfin,Neons) and neon Rainbows get all the food and the 3 platys get none.. aswell as the female betas are too dam slow lol.. even the flame gourmis can't get any.. he goes and hides cause the small fish starts to fly lol..

any suggestions?

and my fish eats all food before it hits 1/4 from the top..

is there some bigger food or betta only food..

For the Beta... I was feeding mine, the floating beta pellets among tall grass, tall enought to reach the surface. I used the same technique when I had to feed seahorses.

For the Platy, maybe if you make your flake sink at different place in the tank and at the same time. Just look to see which fish will also do your cleaning. Bigger flakes might be ignored by the th tetras, it's worth a try.

Good luck

If you have a strong overhanging filter you can put your flake food right at the base of the filter, most of the food will shoot across your tank, hit the other side and disperse quite well and random, some of the flakes will sink aswell, allowing all the fish a chance to get some flakes, plus its fun to watch the more agressive fish chasing the flakes right away
